Movies Are the Mirrors of Our Society

I love watching movies a lot, especially the ones that give me a different perspective.

Movies have always been the mirror of our society.

Doesn't matter; we deny the fact and keep saying, Just watch it for the sake of fun and entertainment.

But some movies just stay with us for a lifetime.

The Perfect Days

Recently I watched an amazing movie named Perfect Days.

The movie subtly shares the importance of solitude and how you can be happy with anything you have.

It is the story of a person who lives alone, cleans toilets in Tokyo for a living, but is still happy and satisfied with whatever he has in life.

The movie teaches us that happiness is a choice.

and it can be attained by cherishing the simplest things you have.

Grave of the Fireflies

It is an anime movie that gives us glimpses of what actually must have happened in World War II when Japan was attacked by US fighter planes.

Heart-wrenching survival story of a brother and sister with a depressing end.

The movie teaches us a lot about life.

How war is never an option and how it can impact the lives of normal people.

The movie shows us the real picture of the world—how cruel it is—but also shows how lucky we are to have a family and a place to live in.

Swades

An Indian movie that I am proud of.

Best SRK acting in a movie. (although he is phenomenal in every role he plays), but this movie is something different.

A NASA scientist comes to India to meet his childhood nanny Kaveri Amma and is blown away with what his country is lacking and how he can make a difference in a community.

where power outages are the norm and the Internet seems like a distant dream.

The movie depicts the situation of the rural areas of India, which lack basic facilities even today.

and how we as a society can take steps to make it better. Even the little steps count, and that’s the purpose of the whole movie.
