The film focuses on a pair of marginal characters in the countryside, and uses the extreme bitterness of the plot to give the audience a touch that will not go away for a long time.
Some people say that the characters in this film are real, the scenes are real, and the story is poignant. Some people also say that in order to win the prize, this literary film deliberately magnifies the suffering, vilifies the countryside, and discredits the nature of black people. Regardless of the controversy,
, which only relies on 1% of the film volume to achieve a counterattack, really hit the softest part of people's hearts. The most special thing about this film
is that, apart from its bitterness, it is also that when everyone sees the protagonist's depressed and suffocated life, what they feel is not despair but hope.
Because what this film is about is not just love and suffering, but focuses on the countless "unseen people" behind the film.
Living well is everyone's request
His parents and two older brothers Ma Youjin and Ma Youyin have all passed away.
For many years, Ma Youtie has lived with his third brother, Ma Youtong. He has worked hard at his third brother's house for a long time, and only wants to eat and have a place to sleep.
After using the free labor for more than ten years, when the two nephews were about to get married, the brother and sister-in-law thought it was unlucky for him to have the reputation of being an old bachelor. In total, they gave him 50 yuan and a donkey , let him " Self-supporting portal".
Iron has nowhere to go, and can only live in abandoned houses in the village. The heroine of
, Cao Guiying, was beaten and scolded by her brother and sister-in-law since she was a child. She has a disability in her left hand, is in poor health, can't work hard, can't bear children, and is incontinent of urination when she is afraid or frightened. She lives in a shack even worse than a pigsty. Two people like
, who are at the bottom of the rural marriage and love market, were brought together by the families of both parties, just like disposing of garbage.
is in such a bad situation that Tie and Guiying were abandoned by the two families, but in the eyes of everyone watching the excitement, they harvested in spring and autumn, and spent their days together with the donkey.
They built a house, raised pigs, hatched chicks, built a swallow's nest, and planted crops...
One night, Gui Ying was too hot to sleep, so the two went to the roof to enjoy the shade, under the sky Starlight sleeps.
You Tie was afraid that Gui Ying fell asleep and rolled down, and tied Gui Ying with the waistband of his pants, connecting the two of them tightly.
Gui Ying thought to himself, "I didn't expect that I could have my own home in this life." of embarrassment.
He figured that if he worked harder, when the crops were sold, he would buy a TV for Gui Ying, and then take Gui Ying to see a doctor in the city.
moved three times, the square Double Happiness was carefully posted on the wall by Youtie, and the warm red became the most beautiful tone in their dark life. They hatched chickens with electricity, and the moment the light was on, people saw the image of hope at once.
shows a rough and tenacious life like an ant in the movie, which makes people cry, and at the same time they wonder: what is the point of living such a bitter life?
is accustomed to watching the bright and bright TV dramas. Some people asked: "Can this film resonate with the memories of the post-50s-70s? Is there still such a life now?" There is a video of the 90-year-old man in his village plucking the ears of grain with his bare hands. He wears clothes similar to the ones in the movies and lives a life similar to the ones in the movies.
In fact, China now has a population of 1.4 billion, and 790 million of them still use traditional labor methods to quietly live a life of slicing food.
Wheat has its own way of living, a donkey has its own way, and everyone has their own way.
is not in the game and doesn't feel pain, but all people are born equal, regardless of high or low, and everyone has a desire to live a good life.
This is also the reason why the film can touch people from all walks of life. Who's life is not rough, and who doesn't want to live a better life?
Youtie and Guiying think so too.
Even in the end, Double Happiness, which is so cherished by Tie, was taken down and replaced with a portrait of Gui Ying.
The biggest evil, quietly
No one thought that one day the villagers would have to rely on horses and iron to save their lives.
The big boss who collects grain in the village has a strange disease and needs a lot of blood transfusions. In the village, only Ma Youtie is a rare blood type that matches.
The boss and the village committee put pressure on Ma Youtie to donate blood to the boss, which is free of charge. The
movie shows Ma Youtie donating blood three times. After each blood donation, Ma Youtie's body was significantly weaker. While donating blood, he endured heavy labor, because the hope of him and Guiying going to the city "waves and waves" was buried in the land.
what did he get?
The only thing he got was two clothes, and those two clothes were finally deducted from the money he sold corn.
Ma Youtie, who kept the whole village's food money, is still the lowest person in everyone's eyes. When a child approached Guiying, grandma hurriedly took the child away and spat, "Don't go near the dirty things."
Ma Youtie's third brother lived a good life. He lived in a brick house and married his two sons. He could easily spend 10,000 yuan to occupy the housing quota for the poorest households.
Everyone takes him "the most, the least, and the worst" for granted. Ma Youtie's kindness and the indifference of the people around him form a strong contrast.
The last straw that overwhelmed the iron was Gui Ying's death.
Gui Ying, who was sick, went to the farm to deliver food to Ma Youtie and fell into the river where Tie once gave her a bath.
Many people sitting at the head of the village saw it, but no one came to save her, and no one even shouted for you. It was only when he happened to see iron that he told him that Gui Ying had fallen into the river.
By the time there is iron to bring Gui Ying up, Gui Ying's body is already frozen.
Many people criticized, this is the director deliberately vilify the rural people in order to win the award, saying that the rural talents will not die.
can be filmed by the director, and it is just so real that it can no longer be real. The people on
are all old, weak, sick and disabled who have long lost their ability to work, and they have no ability to save people. The only man with strength tried to save him, but he didn't.
Then why not call people?
If the person who falls into the river is iron, they will probably call someone. But it was Gui Ying who fell in. She was disabled, unable to work, and had no fertility. She had iron but was about to get the demolition funds to live in a house in the city. Isn't a woman like Gui Ying a burden?
In rural areas where the economy is particularly difficult, the elderly who are unable to take care of themselves and women who are infertile are the first choice to be abandoned.
Gui Ying is just a treasure in Ma Youtie's eyes.
Reality is brutal.
The economic foundation determines the superstructure . In the face of the subsistence of food and clothing, it is false to talk about the truth, the good and the beautiful.
The greatest evil of human nature is never to stab you when you meet, but a cold word, a careless action, a thought for others that "it's better to die"...
It wasn't poverty that killed Gui Ying And disease, but indifference, is numbness.
苦难没有意义
但苦难被看见就有了意义
采访中，记者问导演李睿珺：“为什么这么悲剧的故事，要采用暖色调去讲述？”
李睿珺略一沉吟，说：“那是The color of the land."
There is a scene in the movie where Tie and Guiying are sitting on the ground eating buns, Guiying drops a piece, and Tie picks it up and puts it in his mouth.
Gui Ying said: "Don't eat it, it will fall into the soil."
Youtie said: "What are you afraid of, what is not born in the soil!" hate the land.
In farming, the land grows grain and grows hope. The land will never betray, it bears hardships and joys, accommodating all joys and sorrows, and gives Youtie and Guiying the greatest sense of security. The inexplicable sense of power in the
film comes from the thick land. In
"Hidden in the Dust", except for the heroine Hai Qing, the rest are all played by local farmers.
Haiqing commented that Ma Youtie and Cao Guiying were like two hopeless people who rubbed a match with each other, and then saw a beam of light that shone on each otherthis. When the match goes out, the residual heat will dissipate.
If he hadn't met Guiying, Ma Youtie might have lived the same life as before until he was buried in the loess.
Ke Guiying made him see hope, but it was shattered to nothing in an instant. This kind of pain is really too unbearable.
Someone asked, what's the point of preaching suffering?
Suffering itself has no meaning, but suffering has meaning when people see it.
said in the words of a video blogger: "Everyone is talking about a monthly income of more than 10,000 yuan, but they don't know that some people have never eaten eggs in their lives; some people have countless girlfriends, but they don't know that some people can't even find a partner; some people I feel that Guiying suffers, but I don’t know that there are more miserable women who are used as reproductive tools, beaten and scolded, and I can’t even meet Ma Youtie who loves her…”
Ma Youtie and Cao Guiying are marginal figures in the village. Who among us is in the C position of life?
sympathy for others is sympathy for oneself.
Someone said: "After watching the film, I did not feel hopeless, but lucky. I am lucky to be financially independent, spiritually independent, and able to have the current life."
This is a treasure.
Someone said: "After watching the movie, I recalled the previous mate selection criteria and suddenly felt very funny. It is good to have a soulmate, if not, you have to keep your eyes open. If you find the other half of PUA yourself, you will fall apart. Ma Youtie and Guiying let me see that it's not that there is no love in the world, but that we ourselves have lost love."
This is a reflection.
Someone said: "I can't say any big truth, the biggest feeling is to cherish the hard-won life now and live every day well."
This is growth. The movie
allows us to see those "unseen" through the screen.
was an internet celebrity professor who suggested that farmers go to the county to buy a house and drive back to farm, but he didn't realize that the 300,000 drizzle in his eyes was money that many families could not earn in a lifetime.
When experts say that low-income people can rent out their spare rooms and use their private cars to run Didi, they never thought that low-income people do not have houses and cars at all.
There are too many people who are not down to earth, and there are too many unimaginable dilemmas in invisible corners...
People's Daily Online commented on "Hidden in the Dust": "Being able to stand out from the encirclement cannot be separated from the stories contained in the story" "Truth, Goodness and Beauty" and thinking about the times."
During the shooting, all the main creative teams were ready for the movie to not be released.
Today, it is a meaning in itself to be able to break the pomp and make such films visible to the world.
