A summary of the highlights of "Capernaum"

Presumably the director of the title keeps using zooming and shaking perspectives with the muffled music to give you an initial impression of the tone of the whole film.

The filming is a bit like a documentary. The narration starts with the main line of the courtroom and tells the story through several reverse sequences.

The story itself is nothing special. The performances of the director's narrative music actors are all relatively good.

It may be related to the story itself, the overall rhythm does not have much ups and downs, and the rhythm is slow and depressed. I can't evaluate the emotional transformation of the little boy because I can't understand the environment of the person involved, and I'm too old.

    I always feel that this film can be released because it is used by some people for patriotic education. They will say, "The country is not strong, what is home?" The film is great, and may every child be treated gently by their parents.

    The play is weak, thanks to the skillful documentary shooting techniques and the training of children's performances. The subject matter makes people sad, the child picks up the knife, and no matter who the knife is stabbing, it is the suffering of all mankind.

Capernaum quotes

  • Zain: I want to make a complaint against my parents. I'd want adults to listen to me. I want adults who can't raise kids not to have any. What will I remember? Violence, insults or beatings, hit with chains, pipes, or a belt? The kindest words I heard were get out son of a whore! Bug off, piece of garbage! Life is a pile of shit. Not worth more than my shoe. I live in hell here. I burn like rotting meat. Life is a bitch.I thought we'd become good people, loved by all. But God doesn't want that for us. He'd rather we be washrags for others. The child you're carrying will be like I am.

  • Zain: Life is the biggest injustice.
