We discuss the film's merits as a work of social criticism along with its philosophical musings about the beauty and harshness of the "nomad" lifestyle. Listen to our episode and let us know what you think in the comments below.Episode Outline and ResourcesTimestamps2:02  Introduction2:58  Media Consumption 10:53 News 16:24 Film Discussion NewsNippon Connection 2021 Festival: https://nipponconnection.com/Movie TralierFollow us:Follow Heroic Purgatory on TwitterFollow John Atom on TwitterFollow Jason Maher on TwitterFollow Jason's blogRead John Atom's reviews on VCinemaRead Jason Maher's reviews on VCinema
