Bottoms (2023, Dir. Emma Seligman)

There are too many trigger warnings for episode four of Happy of the End because Keito's entire life is one cruel tragedy after another, so it's . . . a lot.

Little Palestinian boy all alone after his whole family were murdered by Israel:

“I wish I could go to heaven with them!”

طفل فلسطيني صغير وحيدًا بعد أن قُتلت عائلته بأكملها على يد إسرائيل: "أتمنى أن أذهب معهم إلى الجنة!"

I may think of you softly from time to time, but I swear I'll cut my hands off if they ever reach out for you again.

"Even though I acted normal in front of everyone, but I was so lonely when you were away."
