    “Dune 2”: a science fiction narrative of Gaza resistance

    TEHRAN- Based on Frank Herbert’s 1965 sci-fi novel and directed by Denis Villeneuve, the film "Dune" portrays a feudal society on a fictional desert planet 1,000 years in the future, which is more similar to the current situation in the Middle East. The second part of the movie was recently released. In the "Dune" series, major powers battle over a nomadic desert planet, Arrakis, because it is the only place that spice (read oil) - a product essential to space travel - can be mined.
