Talk:The Present (2020 film)

Translated YNET Spain
In contrast to the dramatic complexity of "Ain Levana," which is fraught with moral dilemmas and emotional twists, the plot and moral compass of "The Present" are quite clear. The short film shows that during two moments of friction with soldiers at a checkpoint, the combatants manifest attitudes of racism and contempt, and even cruelty, towards the Palestinians, all under the auspices of the government. This content does not present the military or the State of Israel in a positive light. However, this is not the first time that the "occupation", as featured in Palestinian and Israeli productions, has been a candidate for the Oscar. It's actually surprising that Nablusi received the vote of the members of the Academy given the plot pattern, the emotional exploitation, and the simplicity with which she approaches the matter. In fact, movies like this have been seen in the past, and the director does not offer an original and broader perspective on the conflict. Palestinian cinema has advanced, it doesn't have to be this way, but everything seems to indicate that it works. https://www.ynetespanol.com/lifestyle/article/SyPOT2xEd Selfstudier (talk) 11:47, 24 March 2021 (UTC)
 * , From hebrew "מפתיע לראות את The Present בתמונת המועמדויות לסרט הקצר. הוא עשוי לא רע, אך יש משהו מאוד חד צדדי במסריו ואיתו גם אובדן של אותנטיות המצב"

Suggested edit
Hey, the sentence in the lede currently reading "It was released on Netflix on 18 March 2021, and has been nominated for the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film." Should be changed to "It was released on Netflix on 18 March 2021, and was nominated for the Academy Award for Best Live Action Short Film." Browk2512 (talk) 02:20, 27 April 2021 (UTC)


 * Well, whether the template will work or not, I think I got my point across.
