The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind--Knowledge is Power

This is my first time writing a film review, and the logic is not very strong. I saw a clip of this movie on Zhihu, so I am very interested in the "knowledge is power" in this movie. It is because of my recent state that I realize that only continuous learning can lead to my thinking. The way to go. Unlike other films, there is no urination in the whole process. This film is very ordinary. It briefly...

Don't think of this as a science-altering movie

It was originally thought to be a movie in which science changes fate, but in the part of science, the movie did not go too deep, and it talked more about the hardships of the people on African soil.

As a science student, I have a lot of doubts about this windmill to generate electricity for irrigation, because there are too many unreasonable and unscientific shortcomings.

First of all, the amount of water that such a small pump can pump is very small. How much land can be...

[Spoiler] Unacceptable for movie circuit issues.

The plot is the kind of typical one that moves me to tears. However, there are many technical problems in it, and the engineer man said that he couldn't stand it. I played with this kind of bicycle generator when I was a child, and I followed my father to build an aquarium at home. I am quite familiar with the electric power, head, and water flow of this low-power water pump. As far as the depth of the well in the video, the water output, and the pump needs 100 watts, I have assumed the...

About the director

The protagonist was a multi-talented black musician in the United States in his early years, but unfortunately he was kidnapped and sold as a slave to the South to grow cotton. Before the end of the world in 2012, the Mayan legend informed all countries and united mankind. Three arks were built in Tibet, China. It turned out that it was just a joke made by the Mayans. It may feel a bit embarrassing to be extinct. The protagonist is embarrassed to return to the United States. He turns around...

God is out of reach

Drought is a natural disaster that cannot be avoided in Africa, and excessive drought means that there is no water and no life to survive.

This movie is actually adapted from actual facts. The fate of a person's life is completely changed because of the wind, and the fate of a group of people is completely changed because of the wind. I couldn't help asking myself, what would I do if I were in such an environment? How would I choose? Is it to give up hope or...

"Twelve Years a Slave" Ejiofor wrote, directed and starred in the biopic. In Malawi, arid southeastern Africa, a genius boy transformed his bicycle into a windmill and used wind power to divert water to irrigate the arid land, which is both inspirational and difficult. A history of black poverty....

It feels like returning to the sinister old society more than half a century ago, and the poor life of the African people can be seen at a glance. Fortunately, there are more optimistic teenagers among them, who have done a very inspirational thing. In fact, the story is quite old-fashioned, nothing new, mainly to understand the living conditions of African...

Ejiofor's directorial debut. The script chosen is very safe. An example of knowledge changing destiny on the African continent. The change of national destiny requires more individual...

Since then, I have added another "Malawi" to the production country label of my viewing records. —— Watching the movie directly without being spoiled gave me an unexpected and wonderful look and feel. Looking at the title, looking at the poster, and even watching the plot foreshadowing at the beginning of the film (thinking that it was just focusing on the difficult life of their family), I didn't expect it: this is actually a very inspirational story of "science improving life". ——God is as...
