about it. Beast of No Nation‚ is a movie I would have never watched. After watching it has given me insight of how a war can take away a childhood and innocence. This movie I would consider a raw movie‚ with very graphic scenes and detailed violence. This movie did a great job portraying how children are taken away from their childhood and used as soldiers. These children don’t choose this life but are forced to join these rebel groups in order to stay alive. The story of Agu in Beast of No Nation

my essay I have chosen to compare Le Corbusier with an artist called Kurt Hermann Eduard Karl Julius Schwitters. When I originally chose to compare these artists I assumed they would be difficult to relate as I did not know much about either. After my research I found out the artists had a lot more in common than I first anticipated. Both Kurt Schwitter and Le Corbusier were born in the same year and both work with sculpture and paint. Instead of comparing all of Le Corbusier’s work with all of Kurt
