These two sentences appeared several times before and after the film. It's not easy to understand at the moment.
As the story itself.
The poster reads: "Once you know the facts, you will begin to understand the story."
I used to yearn for that land, those names, Yugoslavia, Serbia, Macedonia... These names are connected with the tangled history. Interested, but unclear.
The countryside there is beautiful and pleasant, and the people there are kind and simple. You can't understand why it keeps on fighting. I can't understand how it feels when an alliance falls apart.
National interests may be a reason. The international community is not unrelated. But where should I start with all this? ...A
shower is approaching. What an artistic title. I have always had special feelings for rain, especially when the day was gloomy and the wind was filled with dampness.
Below the calm surface is a lurking storm surge. Before the heavy rain comes, it is inevitable to be bored. When you look into the distance of the sky, dark clouds seem to press down on your heart and block the sunlight, but the wind is all over the building and blows people down.
You know that only rain can get rid of this boredom. And I would rather be a torrential rain.
The narrative in the film is sometimes more like a splicing of broken shots, leaving the audience to construct a complete image by themselves. And some characters are not full enough. In addition, I don’t understand Macedonian and Albanian at all. My understanding of the story and what the director wants to express may not be deep enough, and I regret it.
The three stories "words", "faces" and "pictures" cleverly form a cycle. After careful consideration, it is a logically insoluble knot. "The circle is not round", this ring is not a simple circle, and has nothing to do with time, because time is indelible, "Time never dies".
Seen separately, they are independent stories, but they interact with each other, entwined into a circle. The complex problems on the Balkan Peninsula are such an insoluble knot, repeated repeatedly, and cause and effect overlap.
It takes a heavy rain to release the depressed emotions. It's just that after the rain, will the sky clear up?
