Lampedusa Leech Film Cheered by Decadent Drones!
Intellectuals are the worst sort of people, for the most part. They have seldom done any honest toil, and are generally estranged from fellow-citizens who do.
Napoleon isn’t a great hero of mine, but he wasn’t always wrong!

They are often addicted to cosmopolitan, supranational ideologies of the cultural marxist type. I’d guess the audience at the Berlin Film Festival answers near perfectly to that description.
A searing Italian documentary on Europe’s refugee influx drew cheers Saturday at the Berlin film festival, which has rolled out the red carpet for pictures offering unique takes on the crisis.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
And how many of these ‘unique takes’ included attention to the alien rape-gangs in Sweden, or the migrant molestations in Cologne.
Or about the evil sectarians picked up en route to Italy?Muslim migrants threw Christians overboard, police say .
Or about the Syrian pedophiles who expect Holland to make room for their girl-victims? Migrant crisis: Dutch alarm over child brides from Syria …
Was there even ONE that offered a ‘unique take’ on the way Islamist terrorists have entered Europe?
I don’t know.
But “Fire at Sea” by award-winning director Gianfranco Rosi, set on the Mediterranean island of Lampedusa, emerged as an early favourite among 18 contenders for the festival’s Golden Bear top prize…

So is it worth watching? It’s about the Lampedusa route, I see.
Ah, yes, Lampedusa –
Lampedusa’s mayor Bernardino De Rubeis denounced the government for abandoning the island to cope with the chaos alone, calling the migrants “delinquents” and insisting the island wouldn’t accept one more.
………
……..
He said he kept a baseball bat in his office for protection. “I must defend myself,” he was quoted as saying by ANSA. “We’re at war, people have decided to take justice into their own hands.”
Alas, Italy, and Europe, stopped deporting the brutes, and actually, under orders from Red Mogherini, stepped up imports!
I’m not going to decry Rosi’s professional skills. An award-winning director would no doubt be able to make a technically impressive movie about anything at all, even about how old homes become infested with dangerous parasites…
… as indeed he has!
But it’s surely the choice of subject that attracts people, not the man’s directorial expertise.
So I’ll not be lining up to watch ‘Fire at Sea.’ Because it’s predicated on a BIG LIE, as the next sentence of The Local report confirms.
The film provides an unflinching look at the thousands of desperate people who arrive on the island each year trying to enter the European Union.

That’s the give-away word – DESPERATE.
Desperate people do not spurn wholesome free food set before them.
Desperate people do not whine about the weather when they reach safety.
Desperate people do not yap about their free internet connection.
