Whachunobout Sandalwood? Cinema of the Kannada persuasion? Oh, well, let us introduce you to this gem - Kanatara.

Welcome back (or should we say Willkommen zurück) from such a long time away. We've missed this little passion project of ours and we're excited to kick off this new season with some catch-up time, a discussion about the recent Barbie and Oppenheimer meme-ified phenomenon that was Barbenheimer.
