“:social instability resulting from a breakdown of standards and values; also: personal unrest, alienation, and uncertainty that comes from a lack of purpose or ideal” – Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary
Okay, that was probably excessive. I just wanted to share a video my french lecturer played in class, which I was reminded of by Wai Teng’s lecture, when he mentioned people who wanted to have families but couldn’t find it as a social phenomenon.
Not gonna go into what I think ’cause the concepts are difficult to understand, but the film itself is pretty interesting, and sad. Suffice to say, the universality of its message is fascinating.
