Mr. Lu Xun has a famous saying: "If you don't break out in silence, you will perish in silence." It seems that there are only two kinds of results of silence, and the story told in this film belongs to the former of the outbreak. The second time I saw this movie, the shock it brought me was not less than the first time I watched it, but it brought me more thinking.
The story begins with Hae-won, a white-collar woman in Seoul. At the beginning, the indifference of human nature in the big city is directly displayed. Hae-won was afraid of causing unnecessary trouble to herself at work, so she refused the loan of the poor old man expressionlessly. Applying for, as a witness in life, but being forced to identify the murderer due to the obscenity of the villain, it seems that the way of life is to protect oneself, which also lays the groundwork for the later story.
On the other hand, Jin Funan, a rural woman living on the island, is hard-working, simple and kind-hearted. After learning that Hae-won is coming back, she enthusiastically helped Hae-won clean the house, do laundry and cook, and undertake all the rough and heavy work for Hae-won in the city. , eyes full of love for Hae-won and yearning for city life.
But Funan was not treated well by life because of her kindness, and her life on the island was not easy. On a small island where patriarchy prevails, Funan has become the most oppressed person. She undertakes the dirty work on the island, but she has never been seen by her husband. long-term sexual assault. But the docile Funan seems to have accepted and used to all of this. When her husband and the call girls off the island were chaotic, he still ate at the door. Only when his daughter came over did he nervously pull his daughter away. Indeed, the daughter seems to be everything to him. As long as the daughter is not harmed, she can bear all the helplessness and misery in silence.
The good times didn't last long. When he found out that his daughter might be violated by her husband, Funan had to ask Haiyuan for help, but the indifferent Haiyuan didn't believe all this and chose to decline. The desperate Funan could only ask the call girls off the island. She asked for help, but after she was about to escape from the island, she was caught by her husband. During the quarrel, her daughter was pushed over by her husband and fell to her death.
After the misfortune happened, Funan lost the only hope in life, and the eyewitness Hae-won kept silent in the face of the police investigation, which caused even more harm to Funan, so the silent Funan finally broke out and confronted him with a sickle. People all over the island, the killing begins.
After watching the whole film, there are two things that touched me the most:
The first is the backward thinking on the island and the barbaric rule without human rights. Living in a civilized society, it is difficult for us to imagine that such social rules still exist in some places and are accepted by most people. The aunt in the film was destroyed by such social rules when she was young, but she became a savage when she was old. It is truly pathetic for a loyal supporter of the rules to be so bitter and mean to impose on others the pain he has suffered.
The second is Hae-won's indifference. The life in the metropolis has turned everyone into an island, and it has become everyone's life creed. Everything, after all, a vicious villain can only bring scars on the body, but the indifference of a close friend is enough to make a person's heart collapse.
In my opinion, what Jin Funan did in the end was not the carnival of a murderer with blood on his hands, but the last struggle of a kind-hearted person who was devastated by backward social rules. At the same time of enlightenment, one should reflect on oneself, abandon the indifference in human nature from oneself, and treat others with enthusiasm.
May every Jin Funan be treated kindly by life.
