    TBH I’m quite surprised they even considered showing that propaganda shitshow, they must have completely missed shitstorms the other film festivals encountered last year.

      For the sake of neutrality of the art, even propaganda pieces should be considered even if not accepted.

        There is no neutrality of art. Art is a reflection of it’s maker. The maker of this piece of shit is, unsurprisingly, a piece of shit, and it should roundly be rejected for what it is.

          You sound like someone who’s never heard of the “Streisand effect”.

          Maybe you should get your head out of your own ass so you don’t miss those type of things.

        Yeah, no. If the film takes a stance on an issue, or advocates for a certain point of view, but isn’t upfront about it, it shouldn’t be considered.

          I’m sorry, but that seems way too broad. Film is an art form and excluding metaphor from it would really limit its range.
