Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I understand that if there are no Southeast Asian reviewers on the episode, it’s difficult to discuss that aspect of the movie—but I was a bit disappointed that one big feature of Raya wasn’t discussed at all.
I recommend checking out this thread of SE Asian journalists and their reviews of Raya, if anyone wants that perspective: https://twitter.com/reyzando/status/1366434440281423872?s=21
I do appreciate the environmentalist interpretation of the movie’s themes, I wouldn’t have considered that if it hadn’t been brought up!
