Today when we were discussing Iphigenia, Bella spoke about the link to modern day women under the Taliban regime; they do know of another life but there is nothing they can do to leave the life they are in, and just have to make do with it..
on that note, there is a really good film called 'Persepolis' which is about a woman during the Iranian revolution. It's animated in black and white, and i think highlights how women have lost their rights during such wars/revolutions etc, and modern day mistreatment by men- how in some countries women are expected to become subservient to their male counterparts. (not that i'm becoming a femenist here!!)
thought i'd share with the group :) i have it on dvd if anyone wants to borrow it-
see you tomorrow! x
