The Middle Ages are more than just a time period—they’ve become a cultural touchstone and a powerful narrative tool. Through their fictionalized and stylized reimaginings, this era lets artists and creators explore the present by looking through the mirror of an imagined past.

Sometimes, the hardest breakups aren’t the romantic ones—they’re the ones that leave your group chats empty and your memories bittersweet. Friendships aren’t supposed to have expiration dates. But when they do, the silence can be deafening. Here’s to the ones we’ve loved and let go, and to learning that some endings don’t need closure to have meaning.
Language is power. In the month of International Women’s Day, we celebrate the voices that speak for intersectional feminism and sacred rebellion. Céline Semaan’s “A Woman is a School”, published by The Slow Factory, reclaims language and the body as sacred vessels for eco-liberation and justice. Her words call us to action: it's time to stand together in solidarity for justice and collective healing. A reminder of the power of language to emancipate us in times of struggle. None of us is free, until all of us are free.

Quentin Tarantino has long been praised for his bold storytelling, but his approach to Black narratives raises important questions about cultural appropriation and blaxploitation in white cinema. While his films often feature diverse casts, the depth of his Black characters remains limited, catering to a broad audience rather than authentically representing Black experiences. His frequent use of racial slurs and reliance on shock value spark controversy, yet his dismissive response to criticism is even more troubling. This article explores how Tarantino profits from marginalized cultures while avoiding accountability, urging audiences to critically engage with the media they consume.

For our latest digital cover, we sat down with Berlin-born actress Tijan Marei. In our conversation, Marei reflects on the evolving landscape of the film industry—where wellness is replacing outdated notions of “cool”, women are claiming their space in more complex roles, and setting boundaries is an essential part of the job.
