Air pollution in Mongolia
A brief documentary from Time magazine on one of the polluted areas on Earth. This has ramifications for much of northeast Asia.

Noteworthy
Alex Good on Karen Elliot House’s On Saudi Arabia. I have serious doubts of House’s characterization of Saudis as generally passive; not that this isn’t theoretically possible — but rather that it smacks too much of stereotypes of Asians in the 19th century.

The Great Message International Film Festival
Happy to announce I have two videos upcoming in this festival in India. Below are stills and filmography info from one of them.
Upcoming/ bientôt
Runtime: 5:47
Synopsis: Meeting my brother the last time.

*
The main story of this authorial movie is that of the death of my brother. He was an alcoholic. He was also self-medicating.
Among these underlying conditions, depression was certainly one of them. But his decline and dysfunctional decision-making was also linked to dysfunction within the family. That's how it often is with addicts: the problems exist on individual levels; they also exist on group levels.

Rencontrer mon frère la dernière fois.
*
L'histoire principale de ce film d'auteur est celle de la mort de mon frère. C'était un alcoolique. Il s'était aussi auto-soigné.
Parmi ces conditions sous-jacentes, la dépression en était certainement un. Mais son déclin et sa prise de décision dysfonctionnelle étaient également liés à un dysfonctionnement au sein de la famille. C'est souvent le cas chez les toxicomanes: les problèmes existent au niveau individuel; ils existent aussi au niveau du groupe.

(Remarque: tiré d'un long ouvrage intitulé "Family Maps" et incluant la chanson "PoemSong". En fait, je vais plus loin dans le concept du film d'auteur. Il s'agit à la fois d'un vidéopoem et d'une chanson créés par l'auteur.)
