      Why is this history reversing so recklessly?

      a simple and ordinary person


               1. There is only one gender of religion.

              As we all know, India is a multi-religious country. According to the number of believers of each religion and the proportion of the national population, Hinduism accounts for 79.8%, Islam accounts for 14.2%, Christianity accounts for 2.3%, and tin...

      Poetry is not in the words, it is in the lines, in those pauses and pauses.

      Fortunately, India has made progress now.

      A college professor who sings has nowhere to go?

      - You are not gay? ——How can three words be enough to express my feelings? It was like a poem, hidden deep in my heart, an uncontrollable fiery desire, an uncontrollable impulse.

      Poetry is not in the words, it is in the lines, in those pauses and pauses.

      There is a lot of social conscience outraged at professors.

      —Professor, are you lovers with that boy?

      ——At...

      How deep is my loneliness, farewell represents my heart.

      A drama film with the main theme of same-sex, but then again, the theme of same-sex is often also related to society, love, and human nature. The immersion of the movie is super strong. I feel that it is done through the delicate portrayal of the characters, the tone of the movie and the shots. There is not much to mention about the portrayal of the characters. Manojie's sad expression will be unforgettable for a long time. There are many one-man shows of characters in the movie. Always...

      This Indian film's thoughts on democracy and freedom make the Chinese feel ashamed!

      The film "Arieger" is based on a true event.

      A university professor named Silas was suspended from Aligarh University because his same-sex sexual behavior was exposed. With the media hype about the incident, he was soon in the whirlpool of public opinion that was almost condemned by the whole people. Prior to this, Silas was a respected faculty member for his outstanding professionalism and dedication, and had been with the university for many years, and was about to...

      Aligarh

      "Arigal"

      After watching a movie that can't be calm for a long time in the inner world, I can recommend it to you

      Aligarh is a city in North India

      The film tells the story of a 64-year-old professor, Silas, who was discovered by a reporter who suddenly broke into his house and four colleagues from Aligarh University because he had had a relationship with a lover. The suspension has drawn the attention of the Indian society. Homophobes are suppressing Silas, and Indian...

      The professor devoted his life, but was eventually framed by his interests and was suspended, humiliated and tortured because of his sexual orientation; the prejudice of society was so powerful that it crushed individuals in an instant; the Delhi High Court of India abolished the criminal law in 10 years377 Article 377 was upheld by the High Court three years later, and sexual orientation was criminalized again. The funny thing is that Article 377 is a product of British colonialism, but it has...

      The most chilling thing about the film, besides the death of the professor at the end, is the side note: India re-criminalizes homosexuality. . . I can't figure out why India would drive such a reverse car. It's really more hurtful than always guilty. The professor did a good job. His eyes were full of drama, and the interpretation of the character was very emotional. Where did he say the three words 'homosexual' It's enough to describe that feeling. It's a...

      So are you gay? How can three words be enough to express my feelings? It was like a poem, buried deep in my heart, an irrepressible desire, an irrepressible impulse. We always like to put labels on people that we can understand, but how many people understand the real situation? A rare Indian literary film, delicate and restrained and full of...

      The sudden sadness at the end, especially the sense of suffocation that re-incriminates, is definitely a plus point. It saves the unnecessary slow-paced advancement and interspersed narrative of the whole film. The courtroom part draws on many American movie shooting...

      It turns out that fame and honor are so fragile in the face of sexual orientation, it turns out that all laws are so grand in the face of so-called "scandals", it turns out that whoever you like can't be dominated by self-consciousness. The game in the courtroom is very exciting, but the winning ending cannot save the utterly injured heart and a lost life. Why should everyone pay attention to private life and decide whether it is right or wrong? Regressive equality can only be...
