Thanks from a Goerte (Hezhe)!

This is the first time I have written text for a movie. Although I am also a movie enthusiast, I like to watch and experience silently, just like Дерсу Узала.

The reason that prompted me to write these words is not the movie itself, but the introduction to the movie. My people have been named other people. I am a little sad and a little lost about this. If you also worship your ancestors, Then you will be the same as me!

Why do you want to say thank you? ---- I felt that you affirmed Дерсу Узала in your film reviews. This must be because he is the son of nature. He protected the pure land with seemingly ridiculous reasons and actions; this thank you It's because he is a member of Goldt, and I am also Goldt's child!

I don't comment on the movie, but since I have touched the pen, I want to talk about some of my thoughts.

Not only do you approve or even praise the actions of this Golter, then I think it is a civilized action in everyone's mind, which is not far from the prevailing "harmony" nowadays. What exactly is civilization, just rich material life? Just advanced production tools? Is it just an established ideology? If this is the case, then it seems that everyone and I are wrong. Дерсу Узала and his nation did not possess the above mentioned, even nowadays.

This is the Goerte people living in the remote Ussuri region. It is far away because our textbook tells people that the Goerte people are "liberated" and are still in primitive society, far away from "civilization".

But, she has never been far away, she is in my heart! •

Note: The Golts are the Hezhe tribe. Due to historical reasons, we call him a lot. Nowadays, they are basically unified. Officially called the Hezhe tribe in China, the Russian officials also don’t call Golt. They are called Na. Nai people (нанайцы).

    Only saw the upper part, just to avoid the sad ending. Despite the difficulties of shooting, the beauty of Xingkai Lake is still amazing. However, I was also impressed by the "Sun" section when I was reading. The Chinese translation and the Japanese translation that Kurosawa saw seem to have different translations. What I understand is "the sun is the sun" (barbarians are not savages); Akira Kurosawa turned it into a deeper metaphor and lament, well, what a westernized Akira Kurosawa! Plus, the Far East has its own history, which is fascinating!

    Hezhe Delsu represents the kind of "noble primitive people" that exist outside of modern civilization, and the situation of such people in the city is almost doomed. It is highly recommended for those who study architecture. The hut in the woods repaired by Del Su and the reed and grass house temporarily built on the ice of Xingkai Lake have the most simple architectural virtues.
