Act IV of The Possession King is live.
A kingdom renames the land for “clarity.”
The maps comply.
The soil does not.
Reckoning arrives not as revolt, but as misalignment.
What still answers to its old name in your life?

True crime can reveal a lot about society — but it can also reproduce harm.

This week, I talk with @the-pod-one.bsky.social of True Crime South Africa about ethics, empathy and mental health.

I also think Parasite demonstrates ethical storytelling because the same rain means two completely different things. The Park family enjoys the clear weather, while the Kim family loses its home to the flood.

A film I've seen before which demonstrates ethical storytelling is Zootopia; it addresses prejudice by distinguishing animals as either predators or prey, effectively addressing a form of structural violence. #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

Already inspired by Jess Crombie's new research - 'Rethink Reframe Redefine - Co-creation and storytelling'. Interested to look at Contributer Centred Storytelling and grateful she keeps edging the conversation on.

A film I've watched that demonstrates ethical storytelling is The Pursuit of Happyness. It shows Gardner's whole life, including his struggles, setbacks, victories, and everything else that led his journey. The story is the complexity of his life experiences.

#hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling one example that demonstrates ethical storytelling would be Bambi it demonstrates structural violence through the killing of Bambi’s mother as it exemplifies hunting animals and the structural violence against animals and about hunting in general.

I’d say Parasite is a great example of ethical storytelling. It shows structural violence through class inequality like how the Kim family is trapped in poverty due to systems that limit opportunity, not just personal choices.

One film that I believe shows ethical storytelling is Life is Beautiful. The film demonstrates structural violence because it takes place in a Nazi concentration camp. It shows the violence built into the atmosphere of a concentration camp. #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

I watched Get Out when it first came out and it demonstrates ethical storytelling by showing structural violence through racism built into everyday systems and social environments, not just individual actions. It reveals how harm can exist beneath what seems normal. #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

I believe the substance is ethical storytelling. Firstly, it exhibits the violent structure -- Men are the dominator and oppressor of women. They are like the invisible hands pushing a women to the hell.
The protagonist can't be counted as good or bad. I consider her as

Zootopia - Ethical storytelling due to every animal’s perspective. Delves deep into intersectionality of being a predator vs prey and the hierarchy within that. It shows the difference in how people brought up in the same system can relate and be different. Not singular. #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

#hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling the film Odyssey demonstrates the consequences of war. The main character’s selfish act putting many lives on the line for a win that isn’t certain, dying a pointless death

A film showing ethical storytelling is The Color Purple. It was so sad, but I think it did a great job at displaying the idea of a continuing condition / pattern / cycle of abuse + demonstrated the hierarchy of identities regarding race & gender via contrasting behaviors #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

I am now thinking back to when I watched it, and it really was so good. I cried a lot, but I appreciated the detail and complexity that went into it. It addresses very sensitive topics and issues, but I highly recommend it as it was well done #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

Parasite demonstrates ethical storytelling by addressing structural violence. Before parasitizing the rich family, Kim's family is talented and works hard, yet they remain stuck in poverty. This shows how social structures. #hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling

#hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling some who really just want power. It shows the realities of the system and how the government wasn't really for good even though it claimed to be and showed the complexities and injustices of those in power.

I believe that Harry Potter demonstrates ethical storytelling. Having Voldemort represent Hitler and non-wizards represent Jewish people. The film shows characters from both sides giving their perspectives and there are morally grey characters, some who change,

#hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling An example is The Lion King. One character wreaks havoc and violence on everybody else. He betrays everybody as well, so the protagonist must fight for justice and avenge all who were wronged, and he does.

#hwa6 #ethicalstorytelling I think that the moving Finding Nemo shows ethical storytelling because it actually wants to show real issues that are occurring to fish, showing that there is structural violence in the sea. Nemo's survival is mistaken for justice, but these issues still persist.
