    The Seed of the Sacred Fig

    -the real social media footage
    -how macro sociopolitical issues manifest on the micro scale within a family dynamic
    -the newly classic phenomenon of social media as a primary source for the youth vs. older folks' alleigance to mainstream news
    -tied up in a bow with a last act reminiscent of the shining, but better

    Very happy i got to see this. An ode to the women fighting this issue on all fronts. Need to circle back and see what the fig metaphor is

    elegant and british and psychological and delicious! Excellent addition to the marisa abela daddy issues cinematic universe, and shout out to Clarissa's ponytail!! Would probably rate it higher if i had understood more of what was being said. Cast on 10, high rewatch value

    Sorry, not the target audience I guess. confused as to how an honestly compelling story (lifelong pariah and outcast instinctively takes a stance against oppression and is willing to disrupt the power structure to advocate for the oppressed, compared to a character who understands the issue presented but is ultimately more comfortable siding with the system that has always upheld her) ended up so... boring? Like cmonn, I dressed up for this! Kept wondering when it would be over

    Gets 1.5 stars for the giggles and Fiyero and the Moment that was the end of Defying Gravity
