Arundhati Roy is right, not Wim Wenders – here are eight films that have changed politics

From ‘honour’ killings to nuclear war, some screen works have led directly legislative action – despite what jury head Wenders suggested at the Berlin film festival

I love Arundhati Roy's courage, integrity, intelligence, and her artistry as a writer of fiction & nonfiction.

Wim Wenders, the jury chair, on being questioned about Gaza, said filmmakers have to stay out of politics. Roy said a genocide demands a response from everyone, artists included. I agree.

@danielagabor.bsky.social

catching up with this and what a shameful twisting of 'films are not political' from that Berlinale jury. - another reminder of the unbearable emptiness of liberal artists.

thank you Arundhati Roy!
