In this episode of The International Risk Podcast, Dominic Bowen speaks with Ibrahim Aboubacar Hama about climate change and its impact on food security, livelihoods, and stability across West Africa. Ibrahim shares what climate change looks like on the ground, and why national strategies often don't match lived reality.The discussion examines whether government frameworks like Senegal's agenda can keep pace with a food security crisis that's projected to nearly double during the lean season, and why bridging the gap between science and affected communities is still one of the region's biggest challenges. We also explore the lingering fingerprints of colonial-era resource extraction and what the rest of the world consistently gets wrong about the crisis unfolding in West Africa.The conversation explores:-What climate change actually looks like for communities on the ground-Why strategy on paper often fails to reach the people who need it most-The lingering economic and institutional legacy of colonial-era extraction-Why bridging the gap between science and society is importantIbrahim Aboubacar Hama is an Environmentalist and Communication Specialist with extensive experience designing and managing climate change adaptation projects across West Africa, with expertise spanning social mobilization, gender equity, stakeholder engagement, and conservation education. The International Risk Podcast brings together global experts, frontline practitioners, and senior decision-makers to explore the forces transforming our world — from geopolitical instability and organised crime to cybersecurity threats and hybrid warfare.

In this release, Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre receives a new and daunting mission: Pope Pius XII appoints him Apostolic Delegate for French-speaking Africa. Now, while still shepherding Dakar, he must represent the Holy See across dozens of missionary territories, from Morocco and Senegal to Madagascar and Réunion. Chapter 9 shows him encouraging bishops, creating new dioceses, helping choose future pastors, raising funds, bringing in religious congregations, and strengthening the Church's presence across a rapidly changing Africa. We see his loyalty to Rome, his practical genius, his calm authority, and his deep concern that the African Church be truly Catholic, missionary, and rooted in strong native clergy.

After Jeffrey Epstein's arrest in July 2019, Jean-Luc Brunel seemed to all but disappear from public view. The French modeling agent, long accused of helping Epstein recruit and exploit young women and girls, was reportedly seen only rarely as scrutiny intensified around Epstein's network. Brunel had spent decades moving through elite fashion circles, but once Epstein was back in custody, he became increasingly difficult to locate, stopped appearing publicly, and avoided the media almost entirely. His sudden absence fueled speculation that he was hiding, being protected, or attempting to stay beyond the reach of investigators.For months, Brunel existed more as a name in court filings, survivor accounts, and investigative reporting than as a visible person. His low profile stood in sharp contrast to the growing attention on his alleged role in Epstein's operation, especially claims that he used modeling opportunities to gain access to vulnerable young women. That ghostlike period ended in December 2020, when French authorities arrested him at Charles de Gaulle Airport as he was preparing to travel to Senegal. His disappearance after Epstein's arrest only deepened suspicions that he understood the legal danger he faced and was doing everything possible to remain out of sight.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com
This is episode 4 of a six-part series on food imperialism. Welcome to Edible Empire, a podcast by Planet Pulse Pacific about the hidden cost of our food.We celebrate flavours, but rarely the people behind them. This podcast uncovers how food—once shaped by empire and now by corporate power—has long been used to control land, labour, and cultures.This episode explores the hidden links between salmon farming in northern Europe and tomato production in southern Spain, revealing the human and environmental costs behind cheap, year-round food.What connects salmon farming in northern Europe with tomato farming in southern Spain? These two, seemingly distinct food supply chains ensure that our supermarket shelves are stocked with cheap, year-round food. What we don't see, however, are the hidden links - the overfishing along the coast of West Africa that destroys local communities' livelihoods and drives migration to Europe; the dangerous journeys by small boat where 1 in 5 people die; the entrapment of migrants arriving in exploitative agricultural labour in Spain's intensive greenhouses. This episode examines the story of salmon farming and tomato greenhouses - and highlights the hidden costs of commodified food.This episode uncovers the destructive and interconnected global supply chains linking northern European salmon aquaculture to southern Spanish greenhouse agriculture. Through interviews with four expert guests, the episode traces how the booming Norwegian salmon farming industry relies heavily on wild-caught ocean feed extracted from West Africa.Investigative journalists Simen Sætre, Hazel Healy, and Brigitte Wear expose the ecological crises, corporate opacity, and false sustainability narratives surrounding aquaculture, whilst Dr Aliou Ba of Greenpeace Africa details how this industrial plundering has collapsed local artisanal fisheries and triggered a profound food security crisis in Senegal. This environmental degradation ultimately forces thousands of displaced West Africans to undertake a perilous sea voyage to Spain, where researcher María Alonso Martínez reveals they are heavily exploited as undocumented migrant labourers, working under inhumane conditions within Almería's vast "Sea of Plastic" to harvest the cheap winter vegetables that stock European supermarket shelves.Make sure you subscribe so you don't miss out on the next episode!Resources from this episode:https://norla.no/en/books/1286-the-new-fish-the-global-history-of-salmon-farminghttps://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/735421/the-new-fish-by-simen-saetre-and-kjetil-ostli/To view all the links to the websites and documents, visit the show notes on our website.Please support our work and enable us to deliver more content by buying us a coffee or becoming a member of Athletes for Nature.Follow us on Instagram and Facebook, subscribe to this podcast, and share this episode with your friends and family.

LGBTQ Rights Under Fire Worldwide: Pride Bans, Political Vetoes and Violence | This Gay Week LGBTQ rights are advancing in some parts of the world—but this week's headlines reveal a dangerous global backlash. On this episode of This Gay Week, Karel examines new reporting about the LGBTQ community in wartime Ukraine, a Romanian city's refusal to authorize a Pride march, and condemnation of Indonesia's decision to classify the “spread of LGBTQ culture” as a national security threat. In Poland, the president has vetoed legislation intended to recognize same-sex couples. In Senegal, the daughter of a prominent anti-LGBTQ advocate has reportedly been arrested on drug and “lesbianism” charges amid an intensifying crackdown. Cape Verde, meanwhile, offers a more hopeful story as one of Africa's most LGBTQ-friendly countries—even as activists warn that legal protections have not eliminated discrimination and violence. Back in the United States, a Florida man received seven years after shooting and partially paralyzing his LGBTQ neighbor. In another frightening incident, police killed an armed man accused of opening fire outside a gay dive bar. These stories span continents, but they raise the same urgent questions: Are governments protecting LGBTQ people—or turning their identities into political targets? Why is Pride still treated as a threat? And what does genuine equality require beyond laws and public promises? Stories discussed: LGBTQ life in Ukraine during the first half of 2026 Man sentenced for shooting and paralyzing LGBTQ neighbor Romanian city resists authorizing LGBTQ Pride march ASEAN organization condemns Indonesia's LGBTQ “security threat” label Daughter of Senegalese anti-LGBTQ advocate arrested Cape Verde's LGBTQ progress amid challenges across Africa Polish president vetoes bills recognizing same-sex couples Police kill man accused of firing on gay dive bar Support The Karel Cast at Patreon.com/reallykarel.

Kelly M. Duke Bryant's Negotiating Childhood: French Colonialism and African Children in Senegal, 1848-1940 (U Mass Press, 2026)explores how colonial child protection policies and African children's responses to them produced new ways of defining, measuring, documenting, and experiencing childhood in the French colony of Senegal from 1848 to 1940. In this groundbreaking book, Bryant takes the scholarship in new directions, offering to a literature dominated by studies of British colonies in the twentieth century a study of childhood in a French colony from the immediate post-emancipation period through the 1930s. This focus allows her to complicate the generally accepted timeline of child protection in colonial Africa and question other assumptions about children's history on the continent. The author, Kelly M. Duke Bryant, is an Associate Professor of History at Rowan University and the current President of the French Colonial Historical Society. The host, Elisa Prosperetti, is an Assistant Professor of African and global history at NIE/NTU in Singapore.

The post China's Growing Influence in Africa: Power, Politics, and Local Perspectives [REPLAY] appeared first on KPFA.
In this episode we seek to Louise Porteus, ESG Manager at Thor Explorations, a TSX-V & AIM listed gold producer and explorer focused on West Africa with operations and exploration assets in Nigeria, Senegal and Côte d'Ivoire We explore how environmental, social and governance practices have evolved from a compliance function into a key driver of value creation in the mining industry. Louise reflects on the pivotal moments in her career, discusses how ESG expectations differ across jurisdictions, shares how Thor Explorations is leading by example, and offers her perspective on the future of ESG over the next decade. We also discuss her work supporting Women in Mining and hear her advice for anyone looking to build a career in international ESG and the mining sector. This episode is brought to you by Mining International, a global executive search partner to the mining industry. For bespoke search and advisory services, please visit www.mining-international.org KEY TAKEAWAYS ESG has successfully shifted from a rigid box-ticking exercise into a core driver of long-term value creation and operational viability in the mining industry. True project stability relies on integrating local community dynamics and cultural governance into decision-making rather than just depending on written local legislation. Implementing ESG successfully requires a practical, step-by-step approach to data gathering that builds local trust and capacity, rather than overwhelming teams with massive theoretical toolkits. Advancing women in the mining sector involves moving past token representation and actively training them for hands-on, technical roles that fundamentally transform lives. BEST MOMENTS "Most projects didn't fail because of technical reasons, they failed because of social." "There's a better understanding that it's not a tick-box, it's not just a spreadsheet, it's actually people that have to put the work behind it and do it." "I've been emphatic about bringing what I call cultural governance into our decision-making." "It's not just what you did, but so what? What did that mean? What did that lead to? Did it give more confidence to people?"

In People of Note this week, a look behind the scenes at a theatre, where so much magic happens. Rodney Trudgeon's guest will be set designer DENIS HUTCHINSON who has worked on shows ranging from experimental theatre via contemporary dance and musicals to ballet and opera.

Agatha Christie's thriller The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is on at Theatre on the Bay.
It's a lighter one this week — just Robert Horry and Rob Jenners running through the leftover questions and stories that didn't fit into Wednesday's show. They kick things off with a Friday movie tangent (yes, the trilogy, not the day), then get into Conor McGregor's disastrous UFC comeback that ended in 69 seconds after he blew out his knee trying to fly-kick his way back into relevance. From there it's a run of stories that had Horry and Jenners genuinely stumped: Senegal's World Cup medical staff reportedly included a gynecologist with no business treating a men's soccer team, and a 65-year-old grandfather at Yellowstone got launched nine feet in the air by a bison after a park ranger spooked it with a truck horn. That one turns into a full safari debate — which animals are actually the most dangerous, and Horry's very specific plan for surviving one (spoiler: it involves you, not him). They also get into Carolina Hurricanes owner Tom Dundon engraving his wife and five kids onto the Stanley Cup ahead of the players and staff who actually won it, and close out with a listener question about Kristin Cavallari flying first class while her kids sit in coach. That turns into Horry breaking down his own family's travel rules, his stance on private jets, and the seat-booking trick he uses to keep the middle seat empty.

For episode 259 of the Crypto Altruists podcast, we're excited to welcome Inès d'Haultfoeuille, Chief Operating Officer of Egregor, a non-profit dedicated to catalysing social and environmental transformations, playing roles that range from accelerator to venture philanthropist and strategic advisor. Their team is truly global, and their work reaches across climate, education, social justice, civic engagement, and more.If you work in the nonprofit or impact space, the last few years have been brutal. Funding is being cut. Donor priorities are shifting, sometimes overnight. Geopolitical instability is reshaping where resources flow and who gets left out. And through all of it, the needs on the ground aren't shrinking. They're growing.We've talked about this on the show before, with organizations working in Ukraine, in Afghanistan, in Tanzania, in Somaliland. The pattern keeps repeating. The people doing the most essential work are often the ones with the least support, the least stability, and the least room to breathe.Egregor was born out of a conviction that social and environmental innovators deserve better than isolation, precarious funding, and systems designed without them. And what I find compelling about their model is where they choose to focus. Rather than just writing cheques, they work to remove the structural, financial, and logistical barriers that stand between an innovator and their vision. Because so often, the bottleneck isn't the idea but everything surrounding it.In today's discussion you'll learn:

The group revealed that the Fulani Muslim militia is by far the most deadly force in the persecution of Christians worldwide. They kill Christians at a rate 4.4 times that of other Muslims. Thus far, they have killed 79,323 people in six years — amounting to 36 people a day. They kill at 3 times the rate of Boko Haram. That's twenty times the number of people that have been killed in the US-Iran war this year. Senegal, Africa: Marriage is between one man and one woman The National Assembly of the West African country of Senegal has defined marriage as a union between one man and one woman. Homosexuality is still legal in 21 out of 54 African countries. So far, homosexual faux marriage has been incorporated in one nation -- South Africa. U.S.-Iran war is back on America's war with Iran is back on, and the Middle East is in flames. The U.S. military bombed dozens of military targets yesterday. The Saudis also bombed the Yemen airport. The Houthi-controlled Yemeni government is an ally with Iran in the present war. The Center for Strategic and International Studies reports a depletion of one-third to one-half of American Patriot, Tomahawk, and Terminal High Altitude Areas Defense missiles. At current rates, the replenishment will take four years. This does not include the use of missiles during the period of May through July. Trump Meme coin tanked; Bitcoin down by 50% The Trump Meme coin has tanked — costing investors $3.8 billion. The president received $636 million from the venture, according to a recent financial disclosure. However, Bitcoin has also lost half its value since the Trump election in November 2024. Total losses are running about $2.2 trillion for investors. Gold capitalization has increased about 3% since November 2025. 122,000 American layoffs The website Layoffs.fyi records 122,000 layoffs this year. That's the highest rate in four years. Amazon is leading the pack for corporate layoffs with a total of 30,000 layoffs over the last nine months. America produces more oil than Saudi Arabia and Russia America is now, by far, the largest oil producer in the world — now producing 42% more than Saudi Arabia, and 37% more than Russia. Back in 2008, the United States produced about half of what Saudi Arabia and Russia produced. That has changed dramatically in the last 17 years. GOP Senator Mitch McConnell rejects rumors he's braindead Republican Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky broke the silence and intrigue surrounding his lengthy hospital stay. Rumors had swirled that the senator was braindead or under cardiac arrest after he was transferred to the hospital. The senator has clarified that he had suffered a fall, but he did not break bones or suffer a concussion. Senator Lindsey Graham met his maker Longtime Republican Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina went to meet his Maker on Saturday night. According to the D.C. office of the Chief Medical Examiner, Graham died of a ruptured aorta brought on by chronic heart disease. Graham, age 71, was never married and never had children. SC Gov appointed Lindsey Graham's sister to serve remainder of term South Carolina Republican Governor Henry McMaster announced Monday that he has appointed the late Senator's sister, Darline Graham Nordone, to serve the remainder of his term. When Lindsey Graham was 20, his mother died of Hodgkin's lymphoma at age 50, and his father died 15 months later of a heart attack at age 68. Because his sister, then 13 years old, was left orphaned, the service allowed Graham to attend the University of South Carolina in Columbia so he could remain near home as his sister's legal guardian. Here's a portion of Governor McMaster's press conference. McMASTER: “Today, under the law, it's my duty and honor to name someone to serve in the place this extraordinary man for the remainder of his term. “Lindsey took care of his little sister in years long departed. It's my honor to ask his little sister, Darlene Graham, to finish his work for him now. “And by the way, Darlene, I don't know if I told you, but after we spoke on the phone in the wee hours of Sunday morning, and you agreed to serve, through tears. Earlier, I had wondered what you would say, and I was humbled by your quickness to see the duty that you had to serve. “I called the president afterwards, and he thought it was a great idea, and I'm sure that everyone here does as well.” Obamacare premiums going higher Obamacare premiums are jacking up another 14% for next year. That follows a 20% increase last year. The Peterson-KFF organization notes that the program lost three million members so far this year — now at a total of 19.2 million enrollments. The average family of four pays $24,000 into Obamacare for this year, and $27,000 next year. That compares to Samaritan Ministries Christian medical sharing that runs about $8,000 per year. Hospitals treated COVID-shot rejectors as “plagued rats” Psalm 146:3 instructs us: “to not put your trust in princes, nor in a son of man, in whom there is no help.” Recent Centers for Disease Control numbers indicate that 80% of Americans got at least one COVID shot. U.S. death rates, based on 2019 numbers, rose 17% in 2020 during the COVID crisis. After the vaccine came out in early 2021, the death rate increased again by 23% over 2019 levels. Then, the death rate increased by 16% in 2022. Death rates did not reduce to 2019 levels until 2024. Last year's death rate actually registered 4% less than 2019. Former trauma surgeon Dr. James Miller told podcast host Alix Mayer that those who did not take the Covid shot, after its rollout, were treated differently in hospitals, and in an inhumane manner, like “plagued rats.” Listen. MILLER: “Absolutely, the vaccinated and unvaccinated were treated differently. They started just denying basic health services to unvaccinated people, which spurned not giving diabetes medicine [and] you can't go see your family doctor. "Now, you could still get emergency care in the ER, but 100% you were treated differently. You were treated as a dirty, plagued rat. And this was common in social media. But it was no different in the hospital. The medical community is no different.” Next, Dr. Miller spoke of The Overton Window referring to the moment when an argument becomes politically acceptable to the mainstream population. In this case, it is more acceptable now, in 2026, for Americans to express their distrust of the medical establishment about how it handled the COVID shot rollout and how it mistreated the unvaccinated 20% of the population. The term, The Overton Window, is named after the American policy analyst Joseph Overton. Listen. MILLER: “I think part of why this is such a good time to talk about this is I think The Overton Window has shifted on the discussion. I think all people have realized the medical care system did not meet their expectations during COVID. “I think most people thought, before COVID, when you go to the doctor, they're going to help you out a bit, and you're going to get better, and they're going to wish you well. I think most people thought when I'm really sick, I'm going to go to the hospital and they're gonna help me out a lot and do their best and get me well. “After COVID, most people realized their doctors were there for themselves. Their doctors were more than happy to give them a toxic substance that would hurt them, like the COVID injection. And I think most people came to see that the hospitals were really killing fields.” 28 Georgia inmates got baptized after Bible studies The Grady County, Georgia Sheriff's department issued an official announcement over the weekend: 28 inmates got baptized! They had been faithfully attending Bible studies throughout the week, and confessed their faith in Christ. The announcement said, “Together, we gathered in prayer, lifted our voices in worship, and celebrated these life-changing decisions. Moments like these serve as a reminder that hope, grace, and redemption are possible for everyone.” Back in March, another 14 inmates were baptized at a Franklin County jailhouse in Florida, according to Channel 7 News. PASTOR: “I'm going to baptize you in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. And I'm baptizing you in the power of that cross I'm talking about today. All right, ready?” These inmates also attended Bible studies each week and heard sermons from local pastors. Inmate Ethan Vonier became a Christian behind bars. VONIER: “I found Christ in jail. I feel like the good Lord put me here. We're all doing better each day.” And inmate Robert Hill was grateful for a fresh start and a Biblical destiny. HILL: “It's a new beginning. Everybody in here probably wants a new beginning. You know, he gives it to you. You know what I mean? Gives you a fresh start. Jeremiah 29:11 -- He has a plan for me. I know it. I want it. I'm going to get it.” Psalm 107:10-14 tells the story: “Those who sat in darkness and in the shadow of death, bound in affliction and irons—because they rebelled against the words of God, and despised the counsel of the Most High. Therefore, He brought down their heart with labor. They fell down, and there was none to help. Then, they cried out to the Lord in their trouble and He saved them out of their distresses. He brought them out of darkness and the shadow of death, and broke their chains in pieces.” Worldview listeners weigh in from Virginia and Texas Joseph Holt, age 20, at Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia, wrote me to say, “Thanks for faithfully presenting the news every morning. I like your podcast because it's short and concise. I can get a briefing on the news while I'm brushing my teeth in the morning before work or school starts. You present the facts from a Biblical worldview and do not shrink from condemning evil. Thanks for keeping this up so long. Here's to another great year!” And Richard Powell in Lonetta, Texas wrote, “I appreciate how much time you guys save me by putting the newscast together so I don't have to filter through so much. I also appreciate that it's concise and that you come from a Biblical perspective. I typically read it as part of my morning routine.” 8 Worldview listeners gave $2,760 And finally, on Monday by 8:00pm Central, 8 Worldview listeners had stepped up to the plate and invested their treasure to fund the six-member team behind The Worldview for another year Our thanks to Sarina in Barnwell, Alberta, Canada who gave $25, Janna in Midvale, Idaho who gave $75, and Susan in Timnath, Colorado who gave $100. We were touched by the generosity of Bianca in Manzini, Eswatini, Africa who pledged $15/month for 12 months for a total gift of $180. Since their money is worth one-sixteenth what ours is worth, it's like Bianca donated $2,965. Imagine that! And we're grateful to God for Dwayne and Anita in Moriarty, New Mexico who gave $200, Frances in Beacon, New York who pledged $40/month for 12 months for a gift of $480, Stuart in Zillah, Washington who gave $500, and Tim in Blooming Grove, Texas who pledged $100/month for a total gift of $1,200. Those 8 gifts add up to $2,760. Ready for our new grand total? Drum roll please. (drum roll sound effect) $23,803 (sound effect of people cheering) That means we need to raise $32,762 to hit our $56,565 goal by this Friday, July 17th. We need to find 8 Worldview listeners, just like Tim did, who will pledge $100/month for 12 months, or give a one-time gift of $1,200, 19 folks who will pledge $50/month or give a one-time gift of $600 and 38 listeners who will pledge $25/month or give a one-time gift of $300. Go to TheWorldview.com, click on Give, select the dollar amount, and make sure to click on the “recurring” button if that's your wish. If Bianca from Eswatini, Africa can give the equivalent of $2,965, what could you give? Go to TheWorldview.com and click on Give.

AFL playing and coaching legend Kevin Sheedy is in studio, as Billy goes one-on-one with some very hard hitting questions.

Helmeted Guineafowl are known for moving in frantic flocks, often running and squawking about. In their native range – from Senegal to South Africa – these chicken-sized birds are favored prey of wild cats and Martial Eagles, so they need to be alert! Because they're also spooked by unfamiliar people, guineafowl are often employed as burglar alarms on farms. More info and transcript at BirdNote.org. Want more BirdNote?

This week on Bad Dads Film Review, we review The Life Ahead, the 2020 Netflix drama directed by Edoardo Ponti and starring Sophia Loren as Madame Rosa.It is a film about grief, trauma, community, memory, faith, chosen family, and a young boy called Momo who is running out of safe places until he collides with an elderly woman who understands pain better than most.What we coveredMonday-recording energy after England's glorious World Cup defeat of Mexico at the Azteca.Recent watches including The Armstrong Lie, Marco Pierre White, Cape Fear, Shot Caller, The Boys, and some explosive dynamite nominations.Sophia Loren's return in a film directed by her son, Edoardo Ponti.Madame Rosa: Holocaust survivor, former sex worker, carer for the children of other sex workers, and a woman still carrying deep fear of doctors and institutions.Momo's introduction: stealing Rosa's candlesticks in the market, trying to stash them badly, and giving possibly the least heartfelt apology ever.Dr Cohen's attempt to place Momo with Rosa, and the negotiation that moves from “absolutely not” to a deal once the money improves.Rosa's household: Babu, Yosef, Lola, and the mix of Jewish, Muslim, Catholic, immigrant, queer and street-level lives around her.Lola as a transgender sex worker, parent and former boxer, and the dads' discussion of how the film includes a lot of identity and community threads.Momo being given a job by Mr Hamil, who helps connect him to his Muslim and Senegalese heritage.Momo's parallel life as a young hash dealer, including his quick success, his maths brain, and the fishmonger/drug dealer who tells him never to mess him about.The recurring lioness imagery and how it connects to Momo's mother, protection, Senegal, faith and abandonment.Madame Rosa's decline: the rain episode, the staring spells, dementia-like symptoms, and Momo covering for her to preserve her dignity.Rosa's hidden basement room, her Auschwitz tattoo, her Jewish memories, and the place she has built to feel safe.The promise Rosa extracts from Momo: do not let them take me to hospital.Momo's guilt when Rosa is hospitalised while he has been out drinking and dealing.The hospital “jailbreak” and the return to the basement, where Momo tries to keep his promise.The fake mimosa plant Momo makes for Rosa, and why that gesture becomes one of the film's most moving moments.The ending: Rosa's death, the funeral, and Momo walking away with Lola and Mr Hamil as a fragile new family unit.Sophia Loren's screen presence at 86: still fiery, still commanding, and especially powerful in the largely silent final section.Ibrahima Gueye's debut as Momo, which the dads thought was hugely impressive.The criticism that the film is sometimes too broad, too sweet, and a bit treacly — touching on many serious subjects without fully developing all of them.Why the drug storyline, in particular, feels like it could have gone somewhere darker but is resolved quite softly.The film's Puglia setting, warm colours, Italian street life, and very direct community feeling.Key quotes / momentsSidey notes that this is probably his first proper Sophia Loren film.Reegs calls the film “a bit treacly, a bit saccharine,” and argues that it throws too much in without examining enough of it in depth.Cris argues that the breadth is part of the Italian community texture: different faiths, identities, politics, histories and people all trying to get by.Dan responds strongly to the setting, the culture, and the idea of people with difficult lives still trying to do something decent for a child.The fake mimosa plant stands out as the small gesture that shows Momo has changed.VerdictA strong recommend. The dads acknowledge that The Life Ahead is well-intentioned and sometimes too broad or sentimental, but the performances, warmth, setting and emotional generosity carry it. Sophia Loren is excellent, Ibrahima Gueye is terrific, and the film's simple message — damaged people can still look after each other — lands.You can now text us anonymously to leave feedback, suggest future content or simply hurl abuse at us.
