The degeneracy of modern society

Yes, thank you, loreta! :flowers:

Also, apparently this video was done by a Russian director. Don't know if it was his intention, but it does show the direction Russia takes at the moment in order to ameliorate "the damage of the Western values" that was done to the current generation. To the point that they call it "a lost generation".
 
loreta, thank you so very much for sharing this - it is very moving and speaks volumes about modern society. I was surprised at the ending, but am glad that the director gave a ray of hope in the following generation.

Did not realize that Russia considers the current generation lost due to the inculcation of Western values, but that makes sense given what the government is doing now to turn things around in the country. If only that could happen in the US! :(

I tough that the uniforms of the soldiers were something very Russian. There is something Russian in this little piece, Russians know how to express the soul. Thanks for the information.
 
Thanks for sharing loretta, it was beautiful. It is so sad/scary what is happening to the youth of today in Western societies, I would have to agree with the term 'the lost generation'
 
I saw that personaly. I was living in a small town for two years in Serbia, former socialist Yugoslavia. The town itself was beautifully constructed, very skilled and meaningful, and some 30 years back it was one beautiful socialist town. When I was there, when the "west" was already had its claws firmly in the country, everything was ran down, everything was decaying, there was no street lamps, water plant was almost not working etc. And people was like that also, very rude and uneducated, nervous and bad. What was most surprising for me is that nobody cares who built that and that building, who constructed two artificial lakes which was beautiful back in time and similar. Nobody didn't knew anything and they were not interesting in that at all. Until, by a chance, I met two elderly gentlemen, now in their eighties, who were the two main people who initiated and responsible for all of that back in the 1950s and 60s. One lived in seclusion with his wife, and the other whose wife already passed was living alone and seemed to be very poor, he didn't have even one decent coat for the street. No one wanted to knew for them or to help them, even that they were actual founding fathers of their town. It was sad.
 
Yes, it is very sad to see how old people today is treated, we forget how they suffered and were victims of the psychopaths in lies and false ideas and for what? Young people today are totally ignorant of history and to be ignorant of history you don't see old people, because old people are part of the history.

I am very respectful of old people. I live in a neighbourhood where old people is everywhere, I see them on the streets, alone and sad. I smile to them and say to them good morning or hello everytime I see one, doesn't matter if I don't know them, I know that this society have no respect for them and that's why I look at them and see them. Many lived the Civil war, they were young but victims of the war and their parents and their families. Today I can read, have a computer, be relatively happy because of them, their lives that were a sacrifice. One day I will be as old as them and that scares a little bit because I know that old people are like insects in this society. Even when I was young I love to be with old people and listen to their stories, I volunteered to give food in hospitals to very sick old people. Our future as a species is in very bad situation when we loose respect for our ancestors.
 
Thank you for sharing Loreta, :cry: very touching indeed and speaks volumes.

You welcome! I like the end, it is a surprise this end! :) Like a kiss.
 
Very touching video.

The final reminded me a hopeful future through the serene and smiling face of the girl in the final scene of film “La Dolce Vita” (The Sweet Life) by Federico Fellini.

Yes you are right. In the Fellini's movie the young girl is the hope, the only one character in the movie that is not degenerated.

This is an interesting ending of La Dolce Vita. The eye of the fish can be the look of the old man in the video that I put, don't you think so. Looking all the degeneracy of the young people. The fish or mammal is talking to us, just looking at us as the old man is looking the young people in the disco. And then the young woman, the hope. But the character of Marcello doesn't want to listen. Thanks Caballero Reyes! Good point in finding the association.
