Little Bird (2023)

One-sided coverage of history
16 March 2024
I really didn't like this series because of the one-sided coverage of history, the use of well-known cliches, as well as because of the translation into the emotional plane and the play on feelings. From the very beginning, the scriptwriters use the well-known tracing paper, where the ideal family of indigenous peoples is shown for quite a long time and carefully, we see ideal people, everyone smiles 24/7, wonderful relationships and a reigning idyll. All neat, satisfied, well-fed and joyful. And then, according to the laws of the genre, inhumane, cruel and immoral villains (social services and police) appear, take away children and beat up parents for no reason. Everything follows the templates of the genre. All this is not to show the real story, the real life of these people, and the real reasons of the time for which this was practiced, but simply to evoke emotions in the viewer - anger, indignation, etc., etc. The entire film is built on such manipulations, which I personally do not accept. Give me a real story, and I'll decide how and what I should feel.
