If "Mints" is to explore the relationship between people and society, then "Oasis" not only truly and calmly shows the lives of marginalized people and the society around them, but also extends the performance of their spiritual world, making the whole film Movies are more humanistic.
A young man released from prison who has some problems with both IQ and EQ, and has never been able to integrate into this society, and a disabled girl with cerebral palsy, they have developed a love that the world can't understand at all. They belong to the disadvantaged groups in this world, and they are also unacceptable people in this world, so what the world will return to them will be cruel and ruthless. I think this is also the director's understanding of this cruel world. Li Cangdong used a lot of long shots to stare solemnly at those characters living on the fringes of society, and he also used his critical spirit to make every viewer get a deep reflection.
After a long time together, the couple's relationship has been sublimated. One night, the girl offered to have sex with the young man, but was accidentally caught by the girl's brother and sister-in-law. As a result, the young man must have been mistaken for rape, and he will face jail again. During a visit, the young man escaped from the detention center desperately. He just wanted to call the girl, but the other end of the phone was no longer a familiar voice.
At the end of the film, the youth climbed the big tree in front of the girl's window and cut off the branches that troubled the beautiful oasis in their hearts. After the noise of the police cars, the police who had already squatted in front of the girl's house took the young man away. The night became quiet again. At this time, the oasis on the wall became extraordinarily clear, and the girl would never see the shadow on that oasis again. Likewise, she might never see his beloved come back.
Seeing this, the philistine me, my eyes were filled with tears.
