Refigure E25 – Iron & Wine

Published: May 15, 2019, 8:32 p.m.

Chris and Rifa dig into another week of arts, culture, tech and diversity.

This week we're both blown away by Icelandic indie film Woman At War starring Halldóra Geirharðsdóttir.

Chris is also watching Sky Atlantic's sobering true-life 1980s drama Chernobyl about the Soviet Union's great nuclear disaster – and we aren't convinced by buddy comedy Wine Country, directed by Amy Poehler, which is up on Netflix.

We also have starkly conflicting reactions to Malian photographer and DJ Fototala King Massassay's exhibition Iron Men, about iron workers and smelters in Mali's capital city of Bamako, which is at Brighton's Pheonix Gallery this month as part of Brighton Festival.

Rifa gets annoyed with the English edition of Flow magazine from the Netherlands, while Chris loves N J Stallard's short story The White Cat that won the Aleph Prize.

Let us know what you think about all the shiz we discussed over on Facebook and follow us on Insta and Twitter @Refigurepod.

Phew, we packed a lot in this week. Hope you dig it. If you do, please give us a 'like' / a nice review / five star rating, wherever you listen to your podcasts – that sort of stuff hugely helps us, without a marketing budget or anything.

Thank you. XX
