The Middle Geeks

Episode 4: 'Capernaum' and Facing Hard Truths


Listen Later

In the latest installment of The Middle Geeks, we review Nadine Labaki's 2018 heartbreaking masterpiece, Capernaum. Mae and Swara reflect on the state of conflict in the region, how institutions fail children, immigrants, and the most vulnerable, and how generational trauma affects us as Middle Eastern-Americans. It's a hard but necessary set of discussions to have. On much lighter topics, we discuss the slew of news from D23, and express our dismay at a change in DC's Legends of Tomorrow's upcoming season.

(We start our Capernaum discussion at the 32:51 mark.)

We are a proud member of the Hard NOC podcast family.
