Works
Are written in this document names of works (books, films, games, mangas, documentaries, music, computer programs) that I believe especially worthy of one's attention.
- はだしのゲン
- A series of comics following a family shortly before to years after the atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima. It was a very captivating read.
- Plan 9/9front
- Learning about these operating systems and going down the rabbit hole of related websites will teach you many things about computing. (You might even be qualifed enough to write code after. Woah.)
- 束の間の一花
- A manga about an ill girl who outlived her life expectancy falling in love with her philosophy teacher. It sounds corny, I know.
- 黒い雨にうたれて
- A series of comics made by the same author of はだしのゲン, also taking place in a post-WW2 Japan suffering from the effects of the atomic bombs.
- Hlemmur
- A 2002 documentary revolving around homeless and other unfortunate people spending their time close to one of Reykjavík's main bus stations at the time, Hlemmur.
- 聲の形
- A manga about a deaf girl and her former bully.
