Nadine Labaki is one of my favorite women on earth! This talented Lebanese actress, writer, director is not only beautiful but intelligent and is such a creative soul. Her latest movie, Where Do We Go Now?, immediately became one of my all time favorite movies when I saw it. She always finds someway to combine tragedy, love, and comedy without diminishing the individual effect of any of these elements. Check out the film trailer below:

Another great Amazon Instant Video find that I truly enjoyed. There is always so much talk about cultural appropriation (a debate I never take part in because…..I think it’s too relative to argue about) but I am always fascinated by (and prefer to focus on) stories of persons born in the “west” and for some reason odd just feel an intense connection with eastern cultures (I do feel like I am one of those people). This is a beautiful film and I highly recommend it. It’s currently available on NETFLIX and AMAZON INSTANT PRIME.
