This summer, Normal Cinema Club is bringing you a season of films that are thoroughly delirious, sweaty and sunbaked.
Valerie and her Week of Wonders (1970) is perfect summer watching for those of us ready to embrace our whismi-goth era.
With stunning surrealist set designs, fantasy-coded vampires, and a dash of lesbian redemption, this Czech horror ticks all the boxes of my recent hyperfixation on anything weird and medieval coded.
As far as Slavic fairy-tales go, Valerie and her Week of Wonders plays with so many great fantasy themes (villainous ferret anybody?), and twists them to reveal the gothic underbelly that all good folktales share; evil exists, and it is entirely man-made. Underneath the sparkly surface there is a darkness that explores the systemic sexualisation of girls, as well as a questionable implied sibling romance, kept just vague enough that it dances the line of problematic.
Let’s DIY our princess hats, make a new tiny animal friend (or foe), and watch something kind of f*cked up this summer.

Belfast City Hall

放飞自我去游玩

We were led by a big-bellied man, who took the middle staircase to the second floor. He asked us to introduce ourselves at the circular handrail in the middle. We were from all over the country, and most of us were foreigners. Then he led us to the parliament hall, which is where the parliamentarians usually hold meetings. There was a microphone at each seat. He then began to talk about the origin and function of this building, and spoke with great vigor. Everyone could sit anywhere, even the speaker&#39;s seat. After the introduction, he led us to visit other halls. The huge banquet hall was covered with thick and beautiful red carpet. I can&#39;t remember which hall was covered with blue carpet.

The castle is situated in between a mountain and sea. Gardens in the surrounding are also stunning. Moreover, if you like trekking, this is an ideal location.

Peace Wall Belfast

Historic buildings

juki235

The Peace Bridge is a beautiful landscape in Belfast. It represents a very sad history and also represents the hope of the people of Northern Ireland. The walls are covered with various graffiti works, most of which are paintings expressing peace in Northern Ireland. Some of the graffiti works are very moving and worth appreciating.
