A very dramatic viewing experience. After a lapse of two years, I went to the Film Archive again, but accidentally watched a castrated film. The 105-minute film was only played for about 70 minutes after deletion. The moment the theater lights came on, I could even feel the shock and anger of the audience.
A classmate I met by chance in the theater gave me movie resources, and another classmate who came to watch the movie with the idea of second brushing briefly told me what the movie was about. After listening to it, I realized that I had completely misunderstood it. totally wrong! At first I thought it was an inspirational film similar to "Beyond My World", and I was still very confused. After watching it again, I really realized how this excellent film was cut into pieces.
Perhaps in China, such a topic is still a little more sensitive. This is a growth story of a boy trying to become a girl. The process of degeneration is painful, but he can still feel the warmth from all aspects. Father, relatives, friends, classmates, teachers, doctors, and everyone Lara meets are willing to Support his transformation plan. It might be a little uncomfortable to see the scene where the girls at school forced him to show them his organs that were different from theirs. The female classmate's question is simple but important: Do you want to be seen as a boy or a girl? what are you thinking? This kind of questioning made Lara break down, feel humiliated, and deeply exacerbated her anxiety.
At the end of the film, Lara cut off her genitals in a brutal way, which is a metaphor. Lara's anxiety, longing, and determination are all displayed in this way. The last shot is of Lara walking in the crowd with radiance and radiance. Her expression no longer has the panic and sadness before, but has more confidence and calmness.
She is a girl now.
PS To be honest, when I was in the theater, I didn't notice that Lara was actually a boy, I paid attention to her flat breasts, but thought it was just that she was not developing well; I saw that she didn't sweat from the beginning to the following The others were sweating just as much, but had no idea it was hormones at work; I noticed that after every class he went to the bathroom by himself to wash his face and drink water, take off his dancing shoes and rip off the tape around his toes and show the audience His bloody feet, but he didn't expect that a very important scene in the middle was cut out.
