The world is a big garbage dump, so what do we call home?

I still watched it a few months ago, but in the pop-up class on the weekend, the teacher put a clip of "Junkyard" in Love Death and Robots, mainly to say this line (can't remember, probably like this) "The world It is a big garbage dump, and the garbage dump is my home. As long as I stay in the garbage dump long enough, the world will come to your eyes." And then led me to a big epiphany. I never thought before that why the home is made of junkyard elements. The Lebanese overhead shot at the beginning is an obvious metaphor for the junkyard. I chose to watch it alone in the evening. To be honest, this film is not as warm as I expected, but the subject matter is very heavy, somewhat like the live-action version of "The Breadwinner". When I watched it, the group of second-pregnant women flashed in my mind countless times. I imagined their children as Zane, and I was very worried. I hope more people will pay attention to this group. What I didn't expect was that Zane played in his true colors. I thought he was a very good little actor. Although he played such a role, he exuded a noble atmosphere. When I was a sophomore, I sponsored a little girl from the Li nationality for a period of time. She was in the second grade. Her mother died when she gave birth to her brother, and her father went out to work. She could only live with her old grandfather, and had to bear the burden of It is the mother's responsibility to take care of the younger brother. Almost all her classes are children in this situation, and many of them are even worse than her family. It is hard to imagine that there is such a real existence in contemporary China. Every time you see a happy child on the street Children will think of her immature face and think about fate. I have thought about it for a long time, why the poorer people are more inclined to have many, many children, probably really like the parents in the film, for the sake of one more possibility of life, for the sake of an expectation, just for the sake of being born, but in fact there are no parents It is unreasonable to not love one's own children. I like watching this type of movie quietly by myself. At the end, the evening rush hour has passed. You can take a bus by yourself, slowly drive through the city, pass by some buildings, some people, and a green belt, which will make your thoughts fly. more distant.

    2.5 / When the little male protagonist and the "child" "farewell" on the street and stretched out the emotional flow that is rarely seen in the whole film, the disadvantages of all the inefficient pseudo-life flow in the first 3/4 were finally exposed to the greatest extent: this should be stubborn and tenacious The characters are completely isolated under the camera and hardly produce natural deep interaction, and are even compressed into fragmented action showmen for flat advertising-style rehearsal. The creators do not seem to be sufficiently aware of the power relations generated by the act of "watching". Therefore, when the bottom class casts anger on the elite, the viewing structure of the film does not seem to produce the self-subversion of "The Thief's Family", but instead. Just fell into a more closed and refined anxiety. It can probably be regarded as what Badiou calls "animalistic humanism", because in essence it is nothing but fragments of images other than the conditioned reflexes within the ideological mechanism induced by closed floating.

    You know, I love looking people in the eyes. Bright, bleak, happy, painful, like a mirror, flowy. Those who are still light in old age, those who are still hung with stars in middle age, those who are still in love when they are young are the pasts that I want to have before I die. And these, in the eyes of the child, are the starry sky that once gathered the Milky Way. Don't let it dim, don't let it freeze.

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.
