Description

In this episode we discuss Takia Waititi’s Jojo Rabbit. Set in Germany during the final days of WW2, this dark comedy follows a young boy in the Hitler Youth who is forced to question his beliefs upon discovery that his mother is hiding a jewish woman from the Nazis in their home. The film manages to remain funny, while still addressing the horrors of genocide, war, and the spread of hatred. Listen to hear us talk about how the film accomplishes this feat, as well as its beautiful production design and much more. Stay to the end to hear which recent, critically acclaimed movie we kinda hated!
