About the Jews, the Jewish nation, there are too many languages in this world to tell their stories. A long history, a legend. And because of the madness and cruelty of World War II, it took on the epic tragic, thick and viscous color of blood. The world has judged them so much that they suddenly feel that they lack their intuitive knowledge and feeling of this nation. The ghosts of grievances wandering in the concentration camps always make me feel sympathetic and sympathetic at first glance.
It is not like "Schindler's List", which uses grand black and white pictures to narrate that period of heavy history, revealing bloody cruel facts, and making loud accusations; it is not like Bernini's clever use of black humor in "A Beautiful Life", using The light and happiness contrast the dark sins, and Acura sings the great warm humanity and great fatherly love, with great dramatic tension.
The film unfolds slowly under the pursuit of the dusty truth by the French female reporter Julia, and of course it has the warmth, length and tenacity unique to the female perspective. The stylus is subtle and subtle, with a French literary tone. The reason for the investigation was that the hostess's family was about to move into the former apartment of her husband's house. When she noticed that they lived in 1942, she wanted to check the previous owner to reassure herself. In fact, her guess is not superfluous. The apartment once belonged to a Jewish family, and the two children who were not recorded in the concentration camp detention list became the driving force behind her pursuit of the truth. The camera zooms back to thirty-eight years ago, when people on the streets of Paris were panicking. A large number of Jews were arrested and transported to concentration camps, and Sarah's family was also unable to escape the disaster. When she was young, she locked her younger brother in the closet in a hurry, and was not taken away together. She never expected that they would have no return date when they left... The past and the present two timelines are intertwined and parallel, the characters are delicately portrayed, and the two time and space Melancholy and helpless emotions merged quietly, and the still water flowed deeply.
We always find that the exploration of a past history is always full of difficulties and obstacles, just like invisible and flexible cobwebs, entangling and stumbling. Sarah is a shared deep memory for all those in the know, a secret that remains silent. For such a secret investigation disrupted the life of the heroine, the elderly mother, the departure of children, conflicts with her husband and his family, the eldest daughter of adolescence, the pursuit of obstacles... The cruel helplessness that was once buried in that apartment To the terrifying secret that has caused waves in the peaceful lives of generations of those involved. The climax of the film should be when the truth we have almost always known but feared to admit is revealed. Little Sarah escaped from the concentration camp and returned to her home in Paris with the help of the kind old couple who took her in. The house has changed hands. She slammed it open and opened the door. Julia's father-in-law, who was still a little Zhengtai at the time, ran to the master bedroom and pushed away the home in front of the closet. The key was shoved into the keyhole eagerly and in a panic. When the old couple and Father Julia's father rushed in, the closet door swung open. Screaming, piercing cries, screaming. We all know what she saw, but we can't imagine what she saw. Such a tragedy caused by her own love was destined to become a knot, forever locked in Sarah's heart as the closet door slowly closed. No key, lost. Lost in the dust of history, crushed under the wheel of war.
Although there are a lot of details about childhood Sarah and it is displayed frontally, the image of Sarah is more like a soul that haunts the whole movie - she is always there, but seems to be outside the story. We know what she looks like and what happened to her, but we can say we don't know anything about her. That little girl with a pointed face and blue eyes, who is not pretty but is stubborn to the point of being stubborn; that beautiful, mysterious, pale and melancholy young woman who has never been able to break free from the torment of the shadow of history - what the film shows is A blank period of more than ten years, seriously out of touch, sacrificed the short life of the little people in the big background. Such an empty, duckweed-like life without roots, even though it is short, most of it is immersed in hardship, fear and extreme sadness. A sad life reflects the sadness of the entire nation, the entire human race and the entire world in that era. Just like a nail will always leave traces after it is pulled out, some injuries can't be done for time.
Two years later, Julia's little daughter has grown delicate and lovely, life is quiet and peaceful. Sarah's son, William, who had angrily refused to know about the past, took the initiative to make an appointment with Julia, bringing with him everything his father had given him on his deathbed, everything that the family that took in Sarah had kept about his mother. Diaries and photos are the most intuitive ways we can have to remember a person. William lamented that after forty years, he finally began to understand his mother who died unexpectedly when he was nine years old.
"I know her face, her smile, her smell, but I never know her douts, fears and dreams." The
woman in the blond red dress in the photo has very beautiful eyebrows. Standing in front of the window, the wallpaper is exquisite, the curtains are flickering, and the blue and blue eyes are empty and distant.
Smiling at the little doll who was having fun alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, William asked the little girl's name. Julia looked at him quietly, hesitated for a moment, her red lips parted lightly, and the seven-foot man burst into tears instantly.
When William's question came out, we all knew the answer.
"Sarah."
is just a remembrance not to be forgotten.

Saying A while ago, after watching the watery poplar flowers, I suddenly felt blessed at a certain moment, she she she she, isn't she the heroine of Sarah Keys! So Baidu found out that it was the heroine of a British patient. . OTZ.... Back then, the young, frivolous and ignorant British patient hurriedly pulled it over and there was nothing left except the yellow sand in the sky. . Just finished studying today.
