Hey guys if you haven’t this movie its called The Breadwinner and last I checked it could be streamed off of Netflix. It’s an amazing film about a girl who disguises herself as a boy in order to provide for her family, who is living in Afghanistan during a dangerous political climate. It’s beautifully animated and incredibly well-written. Me and my younger sister (she is ten years old) thoroughly enjoyed it. So did my mom and dad when we watched it with them later.

It is based on a book of the same name. I read the book when I was in Elementary school. It is great. I also encourage you ne read it.

It’s also made by the studio responsible for Song of the Sea and Secret of Kells, both of which are phenomenal. Unfortunately they also weren’t very profitable. These people really deserve a lot more recognition for their amazing, beautiful work, and if you think so too you should definitely keep your eye out for their upcoming project, Wolfwalkers

They were also behind the song sequence in “The Prophet”

The studio is called Cartoon Saloon and they’re based in Ireland.

I can add on and confirm how much I enjoyed The Breadwinner. Beautiful animation and storytelling, showing you a look at what life is like in Afghanistan under the control of the Taliban, and for me, it was the first time seeing it in film. It even gives you a taste of their stories and mythology.  

Its also one of the few movies that I broke down and cried, which is pretty uncommon. It is one I highly recommend. Its a really good watch.

there’s a decent amt of neurologists who’ve called the sleep schedules we’re obligated to be on despite flagrant conflict with our natural circadian rhythms “borderline torture” and the work hours we’re expected to put in despite the fact that the average person can only maintain maximal efficiency and focus for 3 hours at a time “nearly inhumane” and i think about that a lot
