Danny Boyle and Alex Garlands, "28 Years Later" is more than a worthy sequel. An interesting glimpse into what different humans define as safety. Most of all its emotional, and reminds us that, especially when we forget, kindness, love and enquiry against ignorance is a needed path. Loved this one.

We went to see Daria Kulesh at #cafe9 Sheffield, "Somewhat of a focusing laser for Kulesh's strengths as a writer, the wonder of Ingush stories course through the songs like the butter in a Caucasus Chudu flatbread." folk-phenomena.co.uk/2024/05/05/3... DariaKulesh #Ataman #Cafe9 #Sheffield

Just had the pleasure of Blair Dunlop at Derby Folk Festival. Songs about love, the historical significance of spices, and a particular model of Porsche. It is shaping up well, I believe there are still tickets available for day or weekend derbyfolkfestival.co.uk #folk #livemusic
