I’m literally sobbing at how beautiful my first ever blu-ray contribution looks. Many thanks to 88 Films for this transcendently gorgeous release of Mika Ninagawa’s HELTER SKELTER 🩸

We got a lot of cases like this in Brazil, mostly during the 70s. It was during the DICTATORSHIP. I think the entire world media needs to start using the correct word for the current USA regime.

Everywhere we see how anti-migrant racism and dehumanization is the central pillar for growing fascist rhetoric. To be anti-fascist today is to be anti-border.

Out of all the physical media assets I've looked at in the past year, your essay in the Helter Skelter pamphlet was the most inviting. I'm no avid reader either, so it's no stretch to say that reading it was like watching the film again in a sense. Bravo 👏

Most people don’t know that slavery still exists. Amendment 13 abolishes slavery except where imprisoned. There should be no exceptions to abolish slavery.
