Planning a picnic can show a lot about your friends. Some friends like to plan everything, while others just bring one thing. It shows how friends work together.

📝 Plot:
The same group of vacationers reunites at a ski resort, where snowstorms replace sunshine and every activity turns into disaster. Failed ski lessons, collapsing romances, and tested friendships pile up through nonstop mishaps. A cult comedy about collective incompetence and the absurd chaos of group holidays.

📝 Plot:
A group of vacationers gathers at a cheap seaside resort, hoping for sun, romance, and escape from everyday life. Instead, boredom, jealousy, awkward flirtations, and petty rivalries dominate their stay. Through episodic sketches and cruelly funny observations, the film dissects group dynamics and human insecurity, turning an ordinary holiday into a timeless satire of social behavior and collective illusion.

Side note while thinking about politics: A major problem on the left (in the USA, at least) is black-and-white thinking, often expressed as "if you're not with us, you're against us." I've seen many reasonable and even outstanding liberal ideas and politicians attacked because they aren't perfectly #progressive according to someone's definition. It's the "crabs in a bucket" mentality.

I suspect this happens partly because of group dynamics: one of the most reliable ways to improve one's status in a group (e.g. among "online liberals") is to "one-up" other people on the issues important to a group: *Oh, it's a group for lefties? Well, I can be even more left-wing than you! *

Another tried-and-true way to increase one's in-group status is to attack group members for not being groupy enough: I see your comment about progressive taxation stopped short of seizing all billionaire wealth. You talk about wealth distribution, but are you really a leftist if you aren't calling for seizing the means of production? Yes, you're a socialist, but you apparently lack the courage to demand that all current Democratic party leaders be lined up against the wall...

The result of this is a constant bickering of liberals attacking liberals for not being liberal enough. Of course I think we need this as an ongoing and healthy dialectic, but it's often not that--it's just some people finding things to criticize, probably avoiding the personal insight that they are doing this to get positive attention from other online liberals.

It's not helpful.

A: Hey kid, how was your first day of school? What subjects will you have?

B: Oh, it was so cool. Our main subjects will be #SocialPedagogy, #GroupDynamics, #PsychoEducation, #TraumaPedagogy and #NonViolentCommunication besides #Inclusion and #Diversity, which we started with today.
Other than that we'll have #ClimateJustice, #BlackHistory, #QueerFeminism, #anarchism, #RiotTraining, #solidarity, #degrowth, #PermaCulture, #ReduceRefuseRepair and a few others.
Didn't you always tell me school didn't teach you anything for real life? Well it's not like that anymore.

That feeling of having forgotten to unmute yourself in a videochat - I have that in written chats and face-to-face meetings too sometimes.
