The story of this marriage is told in turns by the main characters, Lotto and Mathilde. Lotto is a man-child, self-obsessed and reliant on Mathilde for someone who understands and grounds him. He truly loves her but is even somewhat selfish in his love.
Mathilde is the adult in the relationship, taking care of the mundane matters of life so that Lotto can pursue a fruitless career as an actor and then as a successful playwright. She loves and supports him in a way that appears to be completely selfless.
Lotto’s story is told first and just as you believe you understand each character, then it is Mathilde’s turn;  secrets and motives are revealed and everything you thought you knew is turned upside down.

A Doll’s House is a three act play written by Henrik Ibsen (1828-1906), a Norwegian writer. The play was first published in early December of 1879 and premiered on the 21st of that month. The piece of literature criticises the 19th century marriage norms and displays that behind every seemingly happy household, conflicts are present. This play showcases Nora Helmer’s struggle for independence and self-discovery in a world dominated by men. In the beginning of the play the Helmer household seems perfect in every way, without a single whiff of maliciousness or dissatisfaction present. As the play progresses however, significant events start to unfold and the facade of the Helmers is cracked, thus revealing that their “perfect” household was after all just A Doll’s House and Nora is forced to take dramatic action. I recommend this amazing piece of literature to every fan of “realism” and “naturalism.”

The latest iteration in the FIFA franchise is the most realistic and fluid one to date. The first FIFA with a heavy focus on next-gen consoles like the Xbox One and the PS4 is also the most fluid and realistic soccer game to date. This is the first soccer game to include female national teams. There are a multitude of stadiums available, as many as 58 including the likes of Camp Nou and Santiago Bernabeu. The AI of defenders is drastically improved and the speed of highly rated strikers reduced to eliminate “one man victories” where Messi or Ronaldo would outrun every defender and score by their own. Career mode, where you can create and develop your own player or manage teams, is back. Ultimate Team is back with the addition of a new FUT Draft Mode where you build your team and challenge others in a tournament style competition for FUT Coins and packs. FIFA 16 is currently out for Xbox 360, Xbox One, Playstation 3, Playstation 4, PC, Android and iOS. I recommend this game to all soccer fans or people who are trying to get into soccer and learn more about it.
