The most direct touch is the long shot in the film. This kind of shot gives people a sense of hopeless emptiness. When the people involved are numb and engage in obscene behavior, the audience will also be infected with the despair. I think the history of film Many directors who prefer long takes may also feel this emptiness.
Every time I watch a movie of a small European country, I always find an excuse to revisit the modern history of Europe, Ireland in "The Wind Blows the Rice Wave" last time, and Romania this time.
The story takes place roughly in 1987, on the eve of the upheaval in Eastern Europe, that is, on the eve of the fall of Ceausescu in Romania. Two college students, to be precise, college students, and two beautiful women in the technical school, one is pregnant and wants to have an abortion. .
At that time, Ceausescu seemed to be adhering to Chairman Mao's policy of "many people make things easier", strictly put an end to contraception, and even strictly investigated abortion, and even arranged the so-called "menstrual police" to strictly monitor the menstrual cycles of all women on the register, and stipulated that a family of at least If you have 4 children, it seems that you will be fined if you have fewer children. Completely the reverse version of Planned Parenthood. Now this pregnant beauty is really helpless, she can only find a black market doctor to "draw a knife to help" her, and it is another beautiful college student who is doing everything for her, booking a hotel room, raising money, and so on. I didn't read the background information at first. When the beautiful woman went to book the room, she wondered why the waiters were so arrogant. Now I understand that in the 1980s, most grandchildren in socialist countries who had something to do with state-owned enterprises had eyes on Tianling cover.
It seems that it has gone too far, the underworld is connected, the righteous beauties took the black market doctor to the hotel for her pregnant sisters. The doctor said that abortion is not difficult, but he said that abortion now takes a lot of risks, he said In fact, he didn't need the money. He said that he didn't come for the money in the first place, and the money they had prepared wasn't enough at all. He finally said that as long as the two beauties were happy with him, he didn't need the money, and everything else was promised. It's all bullshit.
The pregnant beauty said that her own affairs could not let her sisters suffer, and the righteous sisters directly said that they were having a period, but unfortunately she was an avian veterinary doctor... (It is very strange, why there was no flesh and blood in the various black markets that flooded Romania at that time, otherwise this The doctor's perverted behavior is illogical. Perhaps Romania was the only socialist country in the late 1980s that still strictly adhered to the concept of abstinence.)
It was also a long shot. The pregnant woman who was supposed to be lying in bed suddenly became a strong person who didn't need a bed. Outside the room, smoking, sobbing, and then hiding in the bathroom. Not long after, the righteous sisters rushed into the bathroom with their naked bodies naked and washed their private parts in the bathtub. Maybe this is also a form of contraception.
In another long shot, the pregnant woman was lying on the bed with her lower body naked. The avian veterinarian suddenly became very kind, meticulous, patient, neat in her movements, and explained in great detail. She even patted the pregnant woman's legs before leaving to wish her well. transport. I really doubt it's a change of actors. It turns out that induction of labor is a very simple matter. It seems that Bai Ling in "Three Shift 2: Dumplings" is relying on this to keep eating people for a living, but the pregnant woman has to stay in a waiting position and can't move.
The little Romanian national who didn't live to see Ceausescu was thrown into the trash by the righteous sisters. She went to her boyfriend's house before that and was not looking for trouble. I only understand now that women sometimes are not looking for trouble with me because There is no sense of security. Of course, if the underlying factors of this insecurity come from the social environment, there is nothing that men can do.
The last long shot, two sisters, one was pregnant and now has an abortion, the other has always been loyal, but I am afraid that there will always be some regrets in the future. Disturbed by the wedding in the next hall, they decided to have something to eat. At this time, the girl happened to be pregnant for 4 months, 3 weeks and 2 days.
Background: Ceausescu shot by the national
Ceausescu's various perverts caused a nationwide riot in 1989 to completely end his political career. He absconded with his wife, was arrested shortly after, and was soon executed by shooting. At that time, his "menstrual police" policy did make the birth rate very high, but Romania's limited public medical resources could not handle so many newborns. Osescu actually came up with a bad trick, deciding that the birth and survival of newborns were not recorded in the population statistics for one month, which avoided the neonatal mortality rate. This kind of trick now may have to be praised at the time. Now there are many N in Europe. Historians have demanded a re-evaluation of many Eastern European socialist heads of state, including him, because Eastern Europe is still very poor after the drastic changes, but it is not too much for the Romanian people to kill him based on the "menstrual police" alone.
