Persepolis

camila y yo fuimos al cine y por fin escogí una peli que realmente quería ver con gran entusiasmo. persepolis, una película de dibujos animados en blanco y negro, hecho a la mano utilizando una técnica descontinuada hace 20 años, trata de una niña de nueve años que crece en iran durante dos revoluciones y una guerra. su familia acaba enviándole a austria para hacer sus estudios en un liceo francés, pero cuando su vida allí se vuelve demasiado complicada y echa muchisimo de menos sus prójimos, decide volver a iran, dónde ahora se da cuenta se siente como una extranjera en su propio país. increible historia y trabajo artístico. será un placer para mi verlo una segunda vez.

nous non plus

two weeks ago we went back to the fleche d'or, and guess what... yep, we discovered a new band. it was a frenchie band from nyc, actually only the main singer is french, everyone else learned the language phonetically for the songs but don't understand the lyrics unless translated. they rocked though and had lots of punch. it was a retro-punky-soft-melodious-silly-fun-punchy... all that one can look for in a talented band. needless to say, we bought the album.

i'm glad edouard bought his scooter, that means we can go the fleche d'or in no time. discover more bands.

This fashion magazine is a breath of fresh air, it has beautiful, compelling photography far away from all the same fashion crap one sees all over the place. It is by chance I found it. Erik had told me about it and I went to several magazine stores in Paris where no one had heard of it. Luckily today, as I was roaming around Kiliwatch, I saw this magazine and of course the cover struck my attention right away. I especially admired the work of Wolfgang Mustain.

Hopefully one day, I can live up to the expectations of this work of art
