Different from the works of Hitchcock or Benguet reasoning novels that set rules and invite the audience to participate in intellectual and emotional games (these works provide the audience with an illusion of pseudo-equity, making people feel that all stories have a beginning and an end, and the truth It will always be revealed), "Memories of Murder" provides people with true equality: equality with the muddy and ambiguous state of life, and tirelessly reproduces the seemingly useful clues in the narrative, but The real result can never be reached. The "Swampland" to be recommended today is also such a movie: a series of murders, a detection, and an unresolved result.

trailer
movie "La isla mínima" , which took place in the Marshlands of Guadalquivir, Spain, in 1980. Here live the Spanish villagers who have just emerged from the Franco dictatorship. At that time, the strike movement was surging, the democratic reforms of King Carlos I had not been effective, and the pulse of historical change was faint, making people uncomfortable. The two police detectives, like this country, brought their own difficult and depressed history to investigate the truth of the murder.
The girl’s disappearance, the discovery of the body, the accumulation of clues, the suspects appearing and captured, seemingly standard story lines, but actually like small holes, you can see the larger and longer space-time system afterwards. Detective Pedro was far away from his wife who was about to give birth because of the case. The helplessness and anxiety during the phone call with her during the case went against his capable and cold image, confirming his identity as an ordinary person. His partner Juan is burdened with a dark history of manipulating slaughter in the dictatorship system, and the burden of suffering from a serious illness, which also makes his image of an honest and decisive police detective hang in the air. People who are in a difficult life, or even represent evil, reflexively represent justice at this time. This is the tension created by the flow of time in life. The psychic in the movie and the bird falling on the lamp are the power of people. The vague and precise perception of externalization.
The swamp is not only the place where the story takes place, but also a metaphor. Imagine a process like this: the unstoppable hidden worries before falling into the swamp, the pain of falling into the process, and the fear of sinking deep under the feet after falling. And hopeless. In the world, people's regrets about the past, confusion about the present, and worries about the future are the most real and universal common experiences. "Swampland" follows this experience, does not formulate a clear motive and final solution for a crime, and allows the parties in various meanings to maintain the status of truthful one-sided insiders. Unresolved (the result of the detection is only a partial capture of the murderer, and how will Pedro face Juan’s dark history?) is the attitude of this movie, and it is also the real suspense: people are always in the future in life. In the resolved state. Just as Bruno Dumont’s attitude in "Little Children" recommended before, sin is only a real material of life, it is not more special than other mediocre materials, and it is really not worthy of the artist in his works, regardless of morality or morality. False solutions in entertainment.
