Peasants lined the meadows wielding scythes to cut grass. Hear them exhale and inhale evenly as they move forward, following the pace.
This method of operation has now disappeared, and it is also very different from the agricultural tradition of our country. I've seen it described in Russian novels before, but I don't know why. If it wasn't for this movie, it's likely I'd never have known what real lawn mowing was like.
Although the next scene is when the male protagonist brutally cut off the duckling's feet when he was a child, and then put the poor victim into the pond to struggle. Ducklings don't screech like humans, or even make a sound. As a different species, we don't even know if it actually hurts or if it's unbearably painful. Because of this, I feel that the cruelty of this scene is extraordinary. The duck with its feet cut off shows the male protagonist's sin more than any other corpse in the film. After all, the human beings who are fighting against each other can still be blamed for the environment in which the nature is deformed in the social society. For example, this environment stimulates people to think about the soul, and think about immortality. The same kind of human beings are not only observation objects, but even experimental objects. As the basic unit of society, individual-to-individual sins are inexorably shared by other individuals. However, the mutilation of other species cannot be explained, it is pure cruelty, and it should be punished.
