, Nine Women, Nine Lives, Nine Fragments. A woman is in jail desperate to talk to her daughter, a woman meets her boyfriend of 10 years ago in a supermarket, a woman comes back because of her father's injury, a woman just moved into a new home with her husband, a girl is A woman goes to the funeral of her ex-husband's deceased wife, a woman goes to see her lover, a woman is sick and needs care, a mother takes her little daughter for a walk in the cemetery. This is life. No religion, no love, no faith. But it is life. Nine women have their own misfortunes, but they don't know if they can all have their own happiness. Indeed, unfair. But when is life fair? No matter how life treats us, we have to live. We can see family conflicts, emotional disputes, persecution in life, letting nature take its course, alternation of life and so on. Especially when Diana, who was six or seven months pregnant, accidentally met the person she loved 10 years ago while shopping at the supermarket, the unbearable indifference, the rekindled emotional pain, in front of the long shelves. performed silently. Although there is only a 12-minute clip of these women's lives, we have enough to guess what they went through. For example, Diana, with such a big belly, did not have her husband to accompany her to go shopping. Obviously, she was not doing well. Her ex-boyfriend hesitated to name his wife, Diana refused to name her husband, which seemed to imply that the two were actually single, one might be married and divorced, and the other might be a single mother. But they can't go back. No matter how deeply in love they were back then, 10 years later, when things went wrong, they could only walk silently in the supermarket for a while, just like a husband and wife. And Holly, it was a family dispute so intense that it finally came to a drawn gun meeting. From Holly's few words with her sister and Holly's intense hatred, I have already guessed the most direct content of the dispute - sexual assault. Ruth, the mother of the previous Samantha. When she met her lover, it was better to be a recruiter. So when she saw the police car parked at the door of the hostel to catch another same woman, she couldn't help but walked into the woman's house, she couldn't help but called her daughter. What can we do, we have to live. Finally there is the mother and her young daughter Maria. Maria is played by Dakota Fanning. The little girl was curious about everything, about these tombstones, about the lawn, about why cats have nine lives. This also explains why the movie is called "Nine Lives", nine women. We see death from within, we see heartbreak, I saw indifference, the pain and injustice of life, and the bright young lives in the cemetery. 9 women, 12 minutes per woman. Each clip is made from a single shot that is completely unedited, so it is very real and very life, and the development of the plot is relatively slow, just like watching other people's daily life, there are no dramatic ups and downs. And the application of the soundtrack is very little, so that the film slowly progresses in an atmosphere of loneliness, slowly showing our youth, our lovelorn, our pain, our memories, our hardships, our tolerance and our period hope. One day, we will be buried in a cemetery, and there will be lovely girls pointing at our tombstones and asking who she is and who buried her. There will be cats who will jump on our graves, will live here, live here, there will be mothers who come here to miss their fathers, and there will be little girls who use her innocence to brighten all life. Do cats have nine lives? No, she only has one. So are we. In Ruth's story, the director explained his thoughts and reasons for making the whole movie through the mouth of the actor. The world is all connected, and everyone is part of the connection and creates the connection at the same time. And just like in "Animal World", they put together the clips of animals shot in different places, and they put different clips together to tell the story. But all actions are real. The actors in this film have good acting skills, and the director's ability to control the camera is also quite outstanding, which makes this film icing on the cake. The actor exclaimed again: Nothing is more real than a mirage. Like a movie, like this movie. The director, Rodrigo García, likes to make films like this for women. His mother and child, Things You Can Tell Just by Looking at Her, are all short stories about women in fragmentary form. In addition, he has filmed In Treatment and Passengers. He is very good at telling stories with psychological details, so his stories are very suitable for life and very intriguing. Just like this movie.
