Last night, I chased the movie " Hidden into the Dust " on my mobile phone.
This is a film that reflects the life of the bottom of the northwest countryside. The film is directed and written by Li Ruijun and starring Wu Renlin and Haiqing . The film will be released in mainland China on July 8, 2022.
films have been shortlisted for the main competition unit of the 72nd Berlin International Film Festival (2022) and the main competition unit of the 14th Udine Far East International Film Festival in Italy (2022).
Douban score 8.5 points.
The film tells the story of a low-level peasant couple working hard on the land in the northwest countryside. The two were so unfamiliar that they were familiar with each other, and they were close to each other until they passed away tragically.
It is said that the dialect spoken in the play is from in the Zhangye area of , the colorful Danxia place. The plot of
is very bitter and the ending is very sad. After watching
, I couldn't let it go for a long time, and even many classic lines and scenes in the play would jump out from time to time, making people chew, sigh, and empathize.
is right, I really feel the same way, just because it's so real, it's like a reappearance of life. The actors in the
film, except the heroine Hai Qing, including the hero Wu Renlin are all farmers with no acting experience.
is not so much an amateur performance as it is a peasant performance.
This is a literary film that touches people's souls, and it feels more like a documentary film. The time in the
film should be after 2005, when the construction of the new countryside started. The location is on the edge of a desert in the northwest. The characters are also marginalized characters. The heroine Cao Guiying, a disabled woman who was beaten and scolded by her brother and sister-in-law, had urinary incontinence, scoliosis, lost fertility, and lived in a donkey pen for a long time.
They came together under the help of their family members, and they didn't even have a smile on their faces when they took the wedding photos. From blind date to marriage, the only bright color was the vermilion happy character with "a trace of height".
and delicate-minded Gui Ying, the reason she was sure when she went on a blind date was to see the kindness of the old fourth horse, Youtie, who was distressed by the donkey . Marry a kind person, you can't go wrong.
But it is such a hard-working person who is not welcomed by everyone, but in their married life, they find each other's shining points. They warmed each other, supported each other, worked non-stop, made the hard days go up a little bit, and realized each other's redemption.
is the heaviest in his life, but he is full of food and loved. All I want in my life is warmth and love. The love of a lifetime, but to protect and accompany. Another line
shows us is apathy.
Gui Ying, who was ill, fell into a canal by the village because of dizziness while delivering steamed buns and eggs to her husband and drowned.
A large group of passers-by told Ma Youtie that Guiying had fallen into the water in a normal tone, only to watch him frantically salvage his wife, while the passers-by did not help or report Guiying's indifference when she fell into the water. But early cold to the bone marrow.
This indifference is actually from start to finish.
started from the blind date meal, where the third child disliked the donkey for eating too much (in fact, it means Sang scolded Huai and said the fourth child), and then the grain boss was sick and needed the unanimous approval of the whole village's moral kidnapping style. The fourth child was forced to have iron. The sacrifice and humility of donating blood three times for free, and the calculation of the third child as a long-term worker for most of his life, the occupation of the compensation for demolition and the occupation of the allocated housing for the new rural construction, the indifference and suffocation can be felt through the screen. .
When kindness is trampled again and again, the feeling of powerlessness will crush people.
does not mention suffering in the whole play, but the suffering is beyond the horizon. Not to mention love, but love to the extreme. This is the stupidity of the kind-hearted people at the bottom, the stupidity who still sticks to it for a lifetime, because every yard is a yard.
Fortunately, those overflowing screen moved.
is like the fire that Ma Youtie silently built on the wedding night, such as the cup of water that Gui Ying waited for her husband to return in the big winter, and the luxurious coat she brought back to protect Gui Ying's dignity. Another example is those bright wheat fields, green crops, newly built adobe houses, warm lights like flowers illuminated by hatching chicks, and finally the wheat flowers printed by Guiying's hands. It is no wonder that countless netizens want to say: There is no rose in the northwest, and wheat printing is my most turbulent love.
unforgettable and hardshipsBut the beautiful labor scene, the gossip array of adobe, the sorrow and tears of robbing adobe in the rain, the hard work of grinding wheat, the bitter conflict of wheat sheaves, the difficulty and skill of building adobe houses, the sweet happiness of sleeping in one's own pit, There is a huge loss of the ease of repaying the seed loan and various debts and the unequal income, all of which impact the soul.
Guiying is gone, the adobe house that symbolizes home and hope has been toppled, the swallow's nest has been destroyed, and the world of horses and iron has collapsed.
Someone said, I could have accepted the darkness, but you made me see the light. After the light left, I was no longer used to the darkness.
Yes, once a lonely person feels the warm love in the world, he can no longer bear the loneliness alone.
The hemp rope is cut at the delicate point, and bad luck is for the kind-hearted people.
Money goes to those who are not short of money, love goes to those who are not short of love, and suffering is left to those who are suffering. At the end of the
story, the fourth fourth released the donkey, in fact, he released himself. What he drank was not poison, but an antidote. Eat not eggs, but a full stop.
's new life is the third child's, not his.
Ma Youtie said:
whoever has a fate,
wheat is the same,
has its fate,
is not yet summer,
let the sickle cut off.
Spring will come, but those humble lives have turned to dust, dust to dust, and hidden in the dust. The whole film of
is clean, simple, restrained, but full of the deepest compassion.
thanks Chinese film people for showing us a good movie that really touched our hearts.
