Stories of Your Life and Others

Wonderful.

Stories with ideas you don't just consider for a moment, but return to again and again.

What if you could remember your future? What if belief is not just a psychological violence but a physical one as well?

If I knew this, I'd forgotten it, so I was happy to discover that the story “Story of Your Life,” was the basis for the film “Arrival.” Probably my favorite film of the last few years. Imagine a language that requires knowledge of the future in order to be properly contextualized.

Loved it.
