Tune in as Marie Nicola (Alt.Pop.Repeat and Past//Forward) circles back around to the podcast for a plunge into Son of the White Mare, the 1981 animated fantasy adventure movie about a horse’s human son who embarks on a quest to save the world with the help of his superpowers and his two brothers. The phallic depiction of a sword and other sexualized symbolism, encouraging more respect for animation and the age ranges it can appeal to, reading this film through a socialist lens, and the impact that nostalgia has on obstructing boycotts stand out as a few talking points for this episode.
Directed by Marcell Jankovics, Son of the White Mare stars György Cserhalmi, Pap Vera, Gyula Szabó, Mari Szemes, Ferenc Szalma, and Szabolcs Toth.
Spoilers start at 38:00
