At Service95 this week, we’ve got an interview with director Lynzy Billing about her compelling documentary Long Night, which follows the raw and intimate stories of Afghan healthcare workers and their patients.
It got me thinking about how many powerful films and series are coming out right now, including Last Swim by Sasha Nathwani – a coming-of-age story following a British-Iranian A-level student who confronts a life-changing diagnosis. Lead actor Deba Hekmat delivers a stellar performance, and we’ve also got a fun video interview full of her cultural recommendations for today’s issue.
It’s so exciting to see so many different narratives and important stories being told through film. Here’s a little list of some of my favourite movies – if you haven’t seen them, they’re well worth a watch!
Love, Dua x
