#Azur et Asmar

Some art for Palestine. This tragedy makes all of our hearts bleed 🫀🩸.

+ A poem I wrote :

"Palestine and the White Fire"

If I had a canvas, what would I paint

Today ? I have words enough for

Abomination. I have a black bag

Of barbed walls, of justified slaughter,

Of bile dark lies, of houses gone silent.

Down by the sea, a hospital's walls

Painted with patient's blood, a healing

Room wallpapered with white shrouds.

Look away, child. You were never meant to

See this. Your eyes are black with the sound

Of bombs. You wish for a mother you no

Longer have. You wish for a home they

Haven't stolen. Your wishes are so small

In this great inferno. Hellfire will not let

You be a child. Hellfire will not let your

Heart look away. Your heart is burning,

And the sunbird suffocates while

Trying to bathe the blaze, one mouthful of

Water at a time. I could paint all the blood

Palestine has lost. I could paint your mother

In Heaven. I could paint Home, yours again,

Whole and safe, from the river to the sea.

I could paint your dreams. I could wish your

Wishes.

Wish, wish, wish that Palestine shall be free.

White fire reigns on Palestine tonight,

But the sand of that land remembers

Who lost the most, who loves the most.

Sorry not sorry but we, French people, have the best movies and the best movie-makers ever

Kirikou et la sorcière

Princes et princesses

Dragons et princesses

Azur et Asmar

All of them by Michel Ocelot

And, obviously, THE movie that got THE Miyazaki inspired to do his:

Le roi et l'oiseau, by Paul Grimault

This one is probably my favourite movie of ALL time.

Like.

It's brilliant.

I loved it when I was a child, I still love it now for different reasons. The double meanings are incredible, the animation is SO DAMN GOOD (and the film was released in 1980) (it took over 30 years to make because the production was a disaster but the result is... MASTERPIECE)

Tumblr's favorite animated movie!

What fans say:

Azur and Asmar: The Princes' Quest:

The art style is interesting and creative, the story is very nice, mixing history with fairytales, it's bilingual (at least it is in the french version that i watched: mixing french and arabic at all times). It's about family, stereotypes, racism. It's frankly gorgeous. These brothers mean the world to me.

Puella Magi Madoka Magica the Movie Part III: Rebellion:

Extremely strong plot, characterization, and animation (the latter notably improved compared to the original series). I've got so many scenes I love but if you're counting by which scene I've researched most, Homura and Sayaka's confrontation in the labyrinth.

It has occurred to me the only other American I know who's seen Azur & Asmar before turning 18 is my older sister. Everyone else who even vaguely knows about it and what it's about all saw it after their 18th birthday. I saw it when I was either 6 or 7 I'm not very sure but OH MY GOD IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THIS MOVIE YOU SHOULD.

I genuinely think Arabic is the most romantic language there is and I don't even know why

"How should I know? Their blood is the same colour."

I liked the part with the black cat.

An interesting fairy-tale plot, with solid writing and some nice, positive themes. It took me a bit to get used to the stilted 3D character animations, sometimes looking downright creepy, but the 2D art and overall style were truly gorgeous. Wonderfully bright, vivid colours and intricate patterns brought the scenery to life, and the use of silhouette in some scenes was very well done too.

Unfortunately, I couldn't find english subtitles that translated the arabic, so I may have missed some nuance in the dialogue. However the care and attention paid to the structure and visuals of the storytelling ensured that I never had to wonder what was being said. Certainly a testament to quality.

Well crafted and thoroughly entertaining. Great stuff.

ce matin j'ai délibérément décidé de ne pas aller au cours chiant à mourir dont personne ne comprend l'intérêt bien que ce soit de la méthode quanti, c'est le pire cours que j'ai jamais eu de cette matière puis en même temps j'étais trop fatiguée, il était trop tôt et j'étais trop bien dans mon lit. mais je suis quand même allée à la BU finir mon exposé pour cette après-midi, ensuite j'ai rejoins des gens du master car on avait un autre genre d'exposé aujourd'hui pour notre projet sur l'amour. une fille à qui je ne parle pas vraiment a vu mon sticker de lou sur mon ordi et on en a parlé super longtemps, maintenant j'attends qu'elle ai lu le dernier tome pour extérioriser tout ce que j'en pense, il y avait aussi l'empire (romain) avec nous, il a parlé d'agnès varda et mon petit cœur s'est fendu car je l'aime aussi tellement. bref on a pas vraiment bossé au final, moi je suis partie manger en vitesse avant d'aller prendre mes derniers précieux anxios car je ne me sentais pas capable de gérer mon exposé super dense et au final j'ai géré de ce qu'on m'a dit, je crois que j'aurais tout autant géré sans d'autant plus qu'il a duré presque une heure et que je n'ai pas paniqué comme je peux le faire d'habitude. peut-être que toutes les interventions que j'ai animées l'année passée m'ont finalement un peu aidé à lâcher du lest. puis pour celui sur l'amour, on était clairement en mode yolo sachant que de toute façon il n'y avait pas grand monde en cours aujourd'hui, on était plus à exposer qu'il n'y avait de personnes qui nous écoutaient. en conclusion c'était une belle journée qui s'est en plus finie sur une référence à azur et asmar pour illustrer les propos sur une partie de notre présentation donc que demande le peuple on a juste trop bon goût dans ce master.

10 characters, 10 fandoms, 10 tags

tagged by @iamacolor (merci beaucoup violette ♡)

as always, these are in no particular order (because, if i had to, i would spend a good two weeks trying to make the list)

i put the rest under read more because i got carried away (sorry ^^’)

shizuku tsukishima, whisper of the heart: she (& the movie itself) started my love for ghibli movies. i had to include her in the list.

dong geurami, extraordinary attorney woo: we all need a best friend like geurami 💕 she’s really cool and funny! what’s there not to like about her?

sam, totally spies: she’s one of my first fave characters ever ♡

musa, winx: i don’t know what to say except she’s my girl

martin mystère, martin mystère: if there was a photo attached to the word “crazy”, i’m 100% sure he would be the one.

hye won, little forest: i remember going to watch the movie without any expectation and after only 10-15 minutes, i was absorbed and i knew it’d be one of my all time faves. i relate to her. a lot of the things she said i’ve also said.

jenane, azur et asmar: i put jenane but consider this me saying i like all the characters. i can’t pick one. they all have their thing that makes them have a special place in my heart. the main reason i chose jenane is because she reminds me of all the values my family taught me 💕

le vieux sage & karaba, kirikou: their common point is they have an aura around them that makes you stop and stare. they’ve had such a big impact on me as a child. i couldn’t not include them in this list

amélie poulain, amélie poulain: the iconic haircut

nausicaä, nausicaä of the valley of the wind: just like i wrote about le vieux sage & karaba, i really like her aura

#tag game #i literally had to go on my letterboxd to see what movies/shows i liked and which characters were my favourites </3 #my memory is not my best friend lol #the majority of these are from animated movies/shows but that's because i grew up watching them and the characters had a bigger impact on me #tysm for tagging me violette <3 it was a lot of fun
