Regarding the lottery number, I understand that this is a metaphor set by the director about the meaning of the artwork. A set of random numbers has no substantive meaning. When it becomes the winning number, the random number is because of the winning. , And the large sum of money corresponding to the number of bonuses has become significant. What is the significance of the works created by the artist? When the work is not recognized by the society, the work cannot interact with the audience, and arouse private emotional communication and resonance, the work is only meaningful to the artist himself, and it is like a set of random numbers to the public, and cannot attract attention. .
Using the metaphor of lotto numbers, I understand that there is a deeper meaning. Although the combination of lotto winning numbers is random, these 6 random number combinations are indispensable. Without any of them, it is impossible to win the jackpot. . Going back to the three stories of the film, the process by which the painter Kurt found his true self included the influence of his childhood aunt, breaking free from the influence of the socialist realist aesthetic education of the East German Art School, from his classmates and professors in Düsseldorf, West Germany. Regarding the influence of creative concepts, the influence of his father-in-law Professor Qi Bonde on his personal life and the influence of his wife, among the many influencing factors, the director did not specifically emphasize which factor is more important, but used the metaphor of lottery numbers. Leave it to the audience to taste. As far as the film is concerned, the process by which Kurdish finally finds himself and finds the best form of self-expression is influenced by inevitable factors such as childhood life experience, and also triggered by accidental factors, such as his father-in-law inviting him to eat, entrusting him to help get a new passport, Xi Sometimes a newsboy sells newspapers. He takes inspiration from newspaper news photos and finds the right way to himself.
These factors, from a broader perspective, are random events in the universe. No one knows what will happen, when, and should it happen? Dealing with the theme of the story in this way will indeed cause confusion for some viewers to watch and interpret. The film uses a large length to talk about the father-in-law Professor Qi Bonde. As a famous gynecologist, during the Nazi rule, he participated in Hitler's action to purify racial lineage and eliminate the worthless population and genes. After the war, his father-in-law was also the father of the painter Kurdish. Suicide and seeing his melancholic temperament in Kurdish, his father-in-law believed that these performances were not in line with his own views on excellent races, and personally removed his daughter Ali and Kurdish children, and caused Ali to have a habitual abortion. Pregnant. After spending so much space, the result did not accuse the Nazi crimes as expected by the audience, but just as a painter's life background, to set off that before he clearly found himself, he was constantly denied by society and by a certain authority (father-in-law). fact.
After breaking free from the consciousness imposed on me by others and seeing through the fog of illusions, who am I? What am I? It is a problem that the director tries to guide the audience to think, and it is also a problem that everyone has to face. So, do I have the courage to find and face the real "me"?
