      The exploration of rules, the expediency of boundaries, the measurement of balance

      The offside rule came into being to counter some unreasonable offense in football. As can be seen from its historical lineage, it is one of the most controversial rules. The focus of its controversy lies in the measurement of the balance of offensive and defensive power: more offensive players and fewer defensive players will affect the development and improvement of ball skills and tactics; while fewer offensive players and more defensive players will make the game less intense and...

      Happiness has nothing to do with gender

      Best film recommendation: "Offside", this Iranian film won the Silver Bear Award of the Jury Prize at the 56th Berlin Film Festival in 2006. The film is based on the final round of Iran's home game against Bahrain in the 2006 World Cup Asian qualifiers in Germany. It tells the story of six Iranian girls who want to break through the obstacles and go to the scene to cheer for the Iranian team, but in Iranian society at that time, women could not be with men. Watching the game together, the...

      Tradition and Inheritance

      Feminism, I think, is the product of democratic economicalization, like the free market economy, which pursues the unity and unity of globalization. The 6 little girls were temporarily guarded because they sneaked to the stadium to watch the football. Finally, they participated in the cheers and celebrations after Iran's football qualifying with the guarding soldiers. At this time, nothing else seemed important. If the director still emphasizes the equality of women's rights at this time, it...

      a new iran

           As far as I know, the best film industries in Asian countries are China (including Hong Kong and Taiwan), South Korea, Japan, Iran, and Thailand. Among them, I definitely like Chinese movies. Since the 1980s, the international community has also recognized the achievements of Chinese films. Japanese movies, because of cultural prejudice, I don't like. Korean movies, among the countries just listed, I think are the most sloppy. No ideology and culture. It is a beautiful handsome man and...

      This football movie can really change something Fang Hanjun

      "Offside" isn't just a football term here.

      Who is offside? It is these girls who love to watch football, or those in power with the unity of politics and religion.

      Jafar Panahi did not give a clear answer,

      But the "Offside" movie itself speaks for itself.

      The film, which won the "Silver Bear Award" at the 2006 Berlin Film...

      The car leading to the police team was on fire, and they were celebrating for their beloved nation. Sportsmanship is too precious. The religious foundation is seriously shackled. In fact, everyone does not want to break the rules, but even more does not want to stifle the conscience of human nature because of the...
