    The rebellion against the patriarchy, the rebellion against God, comes from the struggle of the self. Children have sex with chickens and sheep, team up to masturbate, parents in the whole village have collective sex, and the soundtrack is accompanied by the children's moans. This part is...

    The Taviani brothers are probably my favorite Italian directors since the golden age of Italian cinema. The film is essentially a return to the Neo-Realist period, in the same direction as Olmi's contemporaneous.

    There was strong resistance under the patriarchal power. After waking up, it was not Yu Shun who repaid his grievances with virtue, but when his son slapped his father, he was shocked. The end of the film seems to show the protagonist's imagination of the image of a loving father, but most of the time the father does not treat the protagonist like he is treating his own son. The soundtrack of this film is very...

    What kind of neorealism is this? Taviani is clearly challenging the boundaries of the previous neorealism, retaining the simple texture of the neorealist images. However, starting from subjective memory, mixed with records and fiction, and talking to the mirror at the end, these are impossible to appear in the works of...
