    Three and a half. European eccentric filmmakers have changed their ways to shoot all kinds of daily life issues of bitterness, great hatred, and deep hatred. It's interesting to use the twin sister-like setting and the background band that comes on...

    I didn't expect that one of the most enjoyable films I saw this year would be dedicated to Iceland. It reminded me of the wonderful two years in film...

    Are you practicing Chinese kung fu to demolish the stage of our Chinese enterprises? Don't you know that the acquisition of these things by multinational corporations is all left by your Western uncles? Oh, we have polluted the land in China for decades, we and he now have two money to go to you to buy the land that has polluted you, and he will jump up? Then they put the dung pots on our heads, saying that we robbed you of your employment, polluted your environment, and set up debt traps for...

    For the world and injustice, mortals have to resist and get along without admitting defeat; the open field covered with moss is the home ground for female warriors to make their voices heard. As a movie with heavy topics and environmental protection propaganda as its main focus, it has carried out a lot of comedy stuffing, and it is also full of genre elements such as suspense and fantasy; the folk singers on the roadside, the intense drum beats are the finishing touch outside the main story,...

    Iceland's Olympic bid film, which failed to be shortlisted, is a legacy. The environmental film has the feeling of a spy war blockbuster. The well-planned ending brings a touch of warmth and lightness to that cold place. Watch out for...

    Children can be hidden in lockers, explosives can be hidden in chicken manure, women fighting industrial destruction are hidden under sheep's skin, and all information that can be retrieved is hidden in blood. We are the most powerful generation ever, and the last to stop the destruction of nature. Whether you choose to meditate in the ashram and be a water drop through the stone, or choose to be the girl of the mountain who cuts the cable to prevent the landslide. Everyone is stuck in the...

    "Women in War", which is like Kusturica's possession, is really an uncomfortable one who doesn't complain. Her precise, humorous and elegant swordsmanship makes this imaginative fable that advocates environmental protection the most Nordic-style absurd comedy in recent years. Radical misanthropy and harmonious naturalism are the twins of opposites and unity in this music-rich Iceland, but with the sudden industrial civilization of globalization, they finally realize that the omnipresence of God...

Woman at War quotes

  • Halla: Economic sabotage.

    Ása: It's extremism, which breeds extremism. He who Jives by the sword, dies by the sword.

    Halla: But no one has been hurt, except our country and our planet.

    Ása: It's not the right way to solve this problem.

    Halla: Meditating in some convent, will that change something?

    Ása: It will change me and thus the world I hope.

    Halla: Isn't that egoism, to think it will change the world?

    Ása: The drop hollows the stone.

    Halla: The stone? The mountains are falling on us, we don't have time to wait for drops.

    Ása: Now you're going to save a child and the entire world with it. Isn't that a small drop or is it just vanity?

    Halla: At least I'm doing something for someone else.

  • Ása: You don't need anyone else. You know that you can do it. You're the mom and nothing will stop you.

    [stands up from the bench and faces Halla]

    Ása: What did mom always say?

    Halla: Yeah.

    Ása: Yes, say it.

    Halla: Moms can do anything.

    Ása: [laughs] No, the other thing.

    Halla: Find solutions.

    Ása: Exactly.
