Round the black crystal. "Era of Anti-Japanese War" is a prequel to the 1982 Night Demon Crystal. The film combines traditional puppet animation with cg special effects technology. It was produced after a year and a half of work by a production team of about 2,300 people. The epic animation series "Black Crystal. The Era of the War of Resistance. The first movie tells the story of thousands of years ago when the Skees from his star exchanged Serra’s heart magic crystal with Serra’s prophet Ogula using the advanced civilization they had mastered to create a celestial instrument for Ogula. Let him indulge and explore the mysteries of the universe, so he cast his eyes on the sun, moon and stars all day long, and handed over the magic crystal to the alien Skees for safekeeping, which eventually caused the Skees to lose sight of using the power of the crystal to commit to their immortality. He ruled Sera in the name of the Crystal Lord for a thousand years. Under the circumstances of his lost and greedy desire and abuse of the power of the magic crystal, Sera's heart withered, and Sera's everything began to alienate, and crises arose. Driven by the contradictory situation, Dieter from the underground Gedun clan, Lane, the son of the guard captain of the Vapra clan, and the princess, and Ogula, who had awakened from a deep sleep, embarked on the road to save Sera.
Judging from the characteristics of the content, the plot and connotation of the story are very profound. It is a serious "serious drama" with a comedy color. The plot is both tragedy and the lofty and comedy painter. Its tragedy is mainly expressed. For the tragedy of fate and the character of the characters, in the film, the Skees broke the magic crystal and split them into the gradually deformed Skees and the Mysteries. They have the same root but the same origin, and the Skees are gradually dominated by desire. The fallen, the mysteries are helpless with fate, whether they are more divided or two-in-one. They show helplessness and have to wait for the verdict of fate. I think the ingenuity of this setting comes from a set of opposing primitive images hidden in the hearts of Westerners. Nietzsche’s Dionysus and Apollo. The mysticists retain the Apollo spirit and master the fields of light, youth, medicine, animal husbandry, music, poetry, etc. They use an ideal illusion to cover up the tragedy of reality. History The Keith is a symbol of the spirit of Dionysus, they are indulgent and depraved. The film casts the evil side of human indulgence on them. These two forces are in huge opposition, but they coexist and coexist with Sera instinctively. As said in the film, “the end and the beginning are always in circulation.” The “dreams” and “drunkenness” of life developed in conflict. The society under the rule of the Skies gradually began to fail. Also because of its depravity, body decay and deformity, at this time, the Mysticist and Ogula cooperated with Govran to form an opposing force, forming a momentum of development under the conflict.
The structure of its world view can be found in the structural model of European medieval society. During the nearly one thousand years of European medieval period, the church occupied a dominant position and determined people’s lifestyle and social ideology. Under the autocracy, people began to break free from spiritual oppression and enslavement, and picked up the classical culture that had been imprisoned for many years, and became an important weapon to disperse the darkness of the Middle Ages and establish a new type of bourgeois culture. Just as the Mystery School appeared in the film to help the Govranians overthrow the Skiesians’ exploitative rule for self-interest, we all know that the Renaissance is the revival of humanism, liberating people’s thoughts, emotions and wisdom from theology and opposing divinity. , The feature of advocating human rights. There are also multiple plots in the film that reflect the expression of the Skees’ monopoly of knowledge and distortion of facts to maintain the rule. They extracted the essence of the truth in order to kill the Govranes, and hunted down Ryan. Want to cover up the facts to deceive the ignorant and kind Govran people. But I didn't expect that a single spark would eventually have the potential to start a prairie fire. After the Govran people knew the truth, they finally broke the prejudice and pushed it down. This transformation and combination is fully in line with Westerners’ affirmation of equality, freedom, and humanistic values. The film’s magical cloak promotes the values that Westerners respect is one of the reasons for the success of the film, and it is also the expression intention of the director’s creation. Where.

All become appreciable and sensible living creatures. In the design form, dots and lines are mostly used as essential graphics, showing a magical world with a sense of movement and vitality. The use of shots in the film is a highlight, such as the longer shots used in the palace library of the Vapra clan and the shots in the underground world of the Gedun clan. The shots fully express the grandeur of the grand scene. The film uses a multi-line narrative approach and is presented in parallel montages. The combination of the film and the cg special effects is also a highlight.
