Closed loop of lies
"Satan Tango" has a total of 450 minutes and is divided into twelve parts, which are consistent with the chapters of the original book.
The first six chapters are a dance step into the dark. An unexpected visitor, Ilimi Ash, came from the backward countryside. He drew a pie about communism for this group of farmers, a classic populist lie, "the relevant department." An ambitious plan was formulated to build collective farms so that all farmers can live an equal life with adequate food and clothing. In the rainy autumn, a gloomy and hopeless life suddenly has a promise, a steady flow of promises, a steady flow of lies, there is no shortage of liars and fools in the world, the latter walked into the tavern to celebrate the carnival, the tango stepped out, and they circled in place The dance steps are just like the fantasy of utopia, so it goes round and round and never ends.
The last six chapters are the retreat dance steps, the illusion of the collective farm falls apart, step by step destroying their imagination of a happy life. The death of the little girl gave the liar Ilimi Ash the right to speak. He claimed that this was the result of the absence of collective farms. The farmers were disciplined unconsciously and obeyed invisibly. In fact, the collective cannot protect naked lives. We can eliminate people, but we cannot eliminate vertical interpersonal relationships. Deception continues, exploitation continues, lies do not rotate on their own, and each individual person forms a closed loop of lies.
Is "Satan Tango" a social mirror image? It is in the kingdom of spectacles. The fetishist appearance whitewashes the relationship between people and classes. However, as long as there are two or more people, the inheritance of exploitation is unavoidable. Illimi Ash deceives Farmer, Shangni deceived Istek. As the youngest child in the family, Istek can only pour all his dissatisfaction on the cat. After being ravaged and tortured, he feeds it milk with rat poison, and then holds the cat’s body. Istek walks in Push Telege Road...This is one of my favorite shots of this movie. Film and literature are two kinds of art. Laszlo’s long sentences are intertwined language. Bella Tal uses long shots to show her concreteness. The act. The dull sky, the muddy road, it seemed that she was the only one between the world and the earth. Istek’s eyes were dim. Her brother poked the lie about the cash cow and stole all the money. She knew that she was a weak and marginalized. For marginal people in the family, there is nothing worthy of nostalgia for this place. Isterk’s steps are firm, and she knows where she is going-the ruins of Winkheim Castle, where there are angels waiting for her. In the rain, Istek swallowed the remaining rat poison, trimmed the woolen sweater, and put the body of the cat Mikul on her body. When the first ray of morning light shone on the ruined wall, she could face the angel with dignity. .
