"A feeling of heart, a memory of touch"
The middle-aged black aunt is a bank employee, and her life as a single mother is not satisfactory. It is difficult for a son who is in the youth rebellious period to educate, and he lives with the same rebellious girlfriend. A black aunt and her son learned that the father of the child had already had a new girlfriend. The black aunt was angry but decided to start trying to date her boyfriend.
So the aunt started looking for a boyfriend, and for future meetings, the aunt decided to go to the local department store to buy a decent dress for a date. The aunt came to the clothing store and began to choose. When she walked to a blood-red silk dress and stopped, the mysterious shopping guide immediately recommended this dress for her.
The aunt tried on this fabric. Although it was a little smaller, it was a good fit. The blood-red color was particularly eye-catching, highlighting a different kind of temperament. Because the clothes were too small, the aunt still didn't want to buy it. At this time, the mysterious shopping guide started her play and persuaded the aunt to buy this bright and retro red dress.
The auntie put on this red dress on the first date, but the date was not very smooth, the other party was not the type she liked, and she found that her body had allergic symptoms, so she took off the dress and put it in the washing machine. But this cursed long skirt spun and jumped in the washing machine abruptly ruined the washing machine and injured the aunt's hand.
The aunt felt that the dress was evil and wanted to return it, but the clothing store refused to return anything. The aunt had no choice but to take it home. Since wearing this dress, nothing is good, and it will always bring disasters. It turns out that the original owner of this dress has died, and this dress has been cursed and is an evil thing. The aunt decided to throw away the clothes completely, so she drove to throw the clothes away, but this fabric caused a traffic accident for the aunt before the aunt destroyed it, and the aunt died in the accident.
The red dress was re-released to the market and the "destined" who started looking for it this time were a pair of young boyfriends and girlfriends, and of course the end was tragic. The fabric finally returned to the department store and burned the clothing store. The only thing that did not burn was this blood-red fabric...
I dare not say that I fully understand the movie. The film is too far from reality, boldly public, and there is no lack of alternative aesthetics. The form of artistic expression is weird and extreme, and the audience feels like a dream and not a dream. The reality and the illusion collide with each other in the clouds, and the texture is rich. The soundtrack and language are a major attraction, very in place and immersive. The movie is not too horrible. It ends when it is clicked. It is closed when it needs to be released, leaving more room for the audience to imagine.
The director teased the concept of consumption with fabrics. The long skirt is cursed by the concept of consumption, giving life that will never die, and the disappearing soul of life is absorbed by the fabric and consumed by the next batch of consumption. This cycle will never disappear. Of course, what the movie wants to express is much more than that, I believe everyone will have their own different ideas. It is an intriguing movie.
