8 d. ago Brides review – teenage girls head to Syria for IS and marriage in powerful and poignant drama

Two friends leave the UK and head to the Turkey on their way to marry Islamic State jihadis in this spirited drama directed by Nadia FallThe phenomenon of Islamic State brides, which became a press preoccupation with the case of Shamima Begum – who 10 years ago left the UK at the age of 15 to join IS and is still in a Syrian refugee camp – is now filtering through to fictional representations; they are striving for a sympathetic, intimate way of intuiting the motives and feelings of young women who were hardly more than children when they were radicalised, and somehow get more pruriently disapproving media coverage than the male jihadis. Nussaibah Younis’s hit comic novel Fundamentally tells the story of an aid worker tasked with bringing IS brides home to the UK, and now there is this watchable comedy-drama from screenwriter Suhayla El-Bushra and director Nadia Fall.It is about two teenage girls: shy, thoughtful Doe (Ebada Hassan) and stroppy, lairy Muna (Safiyya Ingar), who make t...

2 w. ago In Whose Name? review – Kanye’s descent makes for grimly compelling watch

More than 3,000 hours of footage filmed since 2018 by a teenager gets turned into a strange, revealing and unsettling look at a fallen star‘What was Kanye West thinking?’ has remained a prevailing question since the Grammy award-winning rapper-producer pulled the rip cord on his spectacular descent into rightwing nihilism more than a decade ago. In Whose Name?, a cinéma vérité take on the tortured musical genius (who goes by just Ye now), offers fans and long-term observers a new artifact to pore over in search of answers – and reason to be disappointed all over again.That’s not a knock on the 104-minute opus, an outcropping of more than 3,000 hours of footage – some of it never before seen, some of it a reverse perspective on the viral stunts and rants that have marked Ye’s dramatic nosedive. Director Nico Ballesteros – who started filming in 2018, at age 18, with nothing to recommend him (his stint as a second assistant director on a Jesus Is King concert video came later) – had s...
