　　该取材于武穴市4000多名党员下社区、进小区，通过党建引领老旧小区改造的故事：建于上世纪七、八十年代的老油厂小区，有9栋楼160多户居民，是一个典型的无物管、无主管部门、无人防物防的“三无”小区。这里许多居民乱搭乱建杂物间、小车棚，下水道破损无人维修，生活污水横流，居住环境十分恶劣。有条件的住户外出购房搬离后，又将这里的房子出租出去，导致这儿的居住环境更加复杂。龙潭社区主任张昊阳借老旧小区改造之际，做活党建+的文章，派出社区片警樊玉锋任第一支部书记，引导居民开展“法治、德治、自治”。在社区工作者和小区党支部+业主委员会的共同努力下，解决了一批居民急难愁盼的事，终于让居住在这里的近千名群众生活出现了新业态。

Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
