Rules for Movies & TV Discussion

  1. Any discussion of Disney properties should contain a (cw: imperialism) tag. If your post isn't tagged appropriately it will be removed.

  2. Anti-Bong Joon-ho trolling will result in an immediate ban from c/movies and submitted to the site administrators for review.

  3. On Star Trek Sunday only posts discussing how we might achieve space communism are permitted. Non-Star Trek related content will be removed and you will be temporarily banned until the following Sunday.

Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.

What are your best recommendations of movies from for example Palestine? Or just generally outside the imperial core? Ones with English subtitles available.

I am finding some with search engines like a title called Lemon tree, but would prefer those who know better to point me towards some. Also interested in documentaries, watched the Mayor not long ago and it was great.

Irani cinema has some pretty great releases.. The Wind Will Carry Us, A Separation, The Day I Became A Woman, Ten, Children Of Heaven, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night, etc..

Some other good Middle Eastern ones include Capernaum, Farha, Incendies (French Canadian director), Last Man In Aleppo, The Band's Visit, etc.

I think, in the general-ish region, Turkey has the largest and most diverse film industry by far. There are some legitimate gems. Dedemin İnsanları, Once Upon A Time In Anatolia, Son Çıkış, Annemin Yarası, Zeytin Ağacı, Bir Başkadır, Aile Arasında, Ölü Ekmeği, Yaşı Batı, G.O.R.A., Pek Yakında, Kosmos, Monseuir Ibrahim (French but it ends in Turkey).
