A strange and lovely film, which I reviewed for The Lancet. Check it out here. It’s worth watching just for the “wabi-sabi,” that is, the Japanese principle of finding beauty in transient and imperfect things, which animates the film. It’s an original for sure: a sci-fi romance about organ transplantation starring Hollywood A-listers such as Keira Knightley, which is unexpectedly beautiful to behold.
My report on cholera’s deep links to the climate–and the ongoing controversy over the origins of the ongoing outbreak of cholera in Haiti–appears in this week’s Yale Environment 360. Check it out here.
