Cooling political dragonfire


THE most impactful works of fiction trigger deep contemplation – about one’s beliefs and one’s place in our complicated world. When it comes to stories told on screen, my earliest memory comes from The Flight of Dragons.

Even though I was about seven years old when I first watched it – more for the swords and spells than the civilisational lessons – it was more thought-provoking than other cartoons I watched because of the way it presented the world: comprised a realm of magic and a realm of logic.
