Hungarian director Kenel Mudluzzo's "White God" (2014), won the 2014 Cannes Film Festival a unit, a kind of attention award. The film focuses on the close relationship between father and daughter, man and dog. The so-called saying that you get melons by sowing melons and beans get melons by sowing beans applies here.
Unlike Bresson’s "Donkey Baltazar" which focuses on the living conditions of the donkey, "White God" obviously has a deep expression of karma. It seems to attract us far more than that. Stripping off the appearance of Cyclonus, its subtleties are shocking, and it also brings people a lot of associations and thinking.
Every species living on the earth is closely related to us human beings. If we are negligent and negligent, or even deliberately neglect to abandon or even destroy them, they will in turn affect our lives and lives. What I marveled at was how the magnificent scene of horse-like dogs running wildly and hoofed was filmed. It is not easy to concentrate these various dog groups alone, not to mention running wildly in the streets and alleys and other venues. As far as filming a dog group is concerned, it is unprecedented.
The magnificent scene has made people jaw-dropping, and the narrative in the film is even more compelling. Just like this mongrel dog named hagen, it is not seen by people and is repeatedly called a wild dog. Only lili loves it and knows it loves it. . Lili's parents divorced early, and she had been with her mother, but her mother was going to Sydney, Australia for a holiday, so she pushed to bring Lili to her ex-husband.
Father and daughter are justified. It's just that she insists on bringing the dog over. As soon as he came, he was reported as a "wild dog" by a woman next door, and was ordered not to be kept by law enforcement officers. That night, the father did not allow his daughter to have a room with the dog, and was locked in the bathroom. In the middle of the night, when she couldn't sleep, she quietly came to the bathroom and played the trumpet. To soothe it, one trumpet is enough.
The problem is that the daughter also affected the rehearsal of the musical "Don Wise" because of her dog, which angered the professor's father. Angry, he threw the dog from the car on the street. What's the use of hysteria if the daughter hates and has no choice. She understands that only if she can survive it, can she save hagen, and she plans to go out in the middle of the night to find it. But my father found out. She could only go out during the day, but found nothing.
At this time, the dog was also looking for its owner. It passed through danger and was almost captured by the personnel of the animal shelter, and was rescued by a small dog. This strange scene indicates that the future will be long, and Hange is determined to repay his companion. This also indicates that it will retaliate against those who hurt it.
Later, it was rescued by a homeless man, but was sold at a low price. After changing hands several times, it was transferred to a professional dog fighting guy. Viciously, he always knocks the hange's head, binds it to run, starves its skin, and even grinds its teeth to make it sharper. In short, he uses all cruel methods to make it become one. A real ferocious monster.
When fighting a dog for the first time, Hagen killed a vicious dog that had never failed. When the host was complacent, hange slipped away. But in the end, he could not escape the round up by law enforcement officers and was sent to an animal shelter. The huge gathering of countless stray dogs seemed to inspire class hatred, blood and tears in hange. It began to fight back against humans. It first killed the administrator, and then led the dogs out of the cage and rushed to reality. Their crowd.
In the roar of Liszt's "Hungarian Rhapsody", the crowds scattered on the street to escape, and the window panes of the cars were attacked by them. No one could stop this powerful eruption, no one. When the dogs rushed into the concert hall where she performed, the panicked crowd fled in all directions. Only Lili was very calm. She took her trumpet and stepped out on a bicycle. She was searching on the cold street, and the dogs rushed towards her. But she never saw her hange.
At this time, the hange was adopting a plan of revenge one by one, and everyone who had hurt it before fell under its sharp teeth. When Hange finally came to the unit where Lili's father worked, fortunately, Lili also arrived in time. Father was holding a gas bottle and was about to use a burst of flames to resist the group of fierce dogs. This action was both risky and naive. The fearless lili greeted hange quietly and intimately to awaken its past "humanity" side. It stopped.
Lili took out the trumpet and played a familiar tune. It was softened, and it obviously felt the warmth of its owner. It lay down quietly, and all the dog army behind it also lay down quietly. She also slowly got down, and her father also dropped the gas bottle and got down quietly. This is a kind of understanding, a kind of reconciliation, a kind of peaceful posture.
The so-called white god is not only a kind of equal pity, but also a kind of humble acceptance, and the eternally insurmountable boundary between man and nature and animals. People, if they always offend them unscrupulously, they will suffer unprecedented retaliation accordingly. And the final restoration, only from respect, understanding, and awe, can human beings avoid the situation of irreversible disaster. Just like what Lili did to hange with action: even if the whole world doesn't want you, at least you still have me! In other words, I still have you!
