"Tall" Russian film, the original name of the film "Beanpole", directly translated as bean pole, also as the name of the thin and tall man. Leningrad in 1945 was devastated by the Second World War, and everyone was trying to restore peace. Kantemir Balagov, born in 1991, was inspired by the Nobel Prize in Literature Alekseyevich's 1984 novel "There Are No Women in War", and tried to portray female soldiers in the movie "Tall" in response to war A story of devastation after traumatic stress disorder.

The tall girl, Oia, was in a daze in the ward, and her whole body froze there. She used to be an artilleryman because of the sequelae of a concussion, she would “frozen” without any signs and could not move or speak.

Oia has an adopted son, Pascal. The little guy just talked and was the source of happiness in the hospital. The wounded made Pascal amused by imitating various animals. When a soldier asked how the dog barked, the crowd was silent. Pascal may not know the dog. Because of the war, all the dogs in the town were eaten up, so the soldiers began to learn how to bark, not so much as a howling. When Oia was playing with Pascal, she suddenly had a "freeze" symptom. Pascal, who had never seen a dog, was crushed to death.

Masha is Oia's comrade-in-arms. After recovering from injuries, she is barren. Pascal is her son born on the battlefield. Knowing the truth, Martha forced Oia to have a child for her. Oia was reluctant, but eventually gave in. Martha chose Nikolai, the doctor in the hospital, so on the same bed, Martha was at the innermost, Oia was sandwiched in the middle, and Nikolay was lying on Oia. With the sound of crying, Martha was because of Nikolai’s The thrust shook violently.

Masha put on the green dress, spinning quickly, and smiling while turning. She thought of the happy childhood, then had difficulty breathing, almost despair, the war destroyed the carefree little girl. The rotation made her dizzy, and the post-war world made everything around her lose focus.

The sniper voluntarily asked for drugs to commit suicide because he did not want to be a burden to others. When the doctor asked him why he didn't come by himself, he said that he had suffered a lot during his lifetime and wanted to die easier. The taller said, I don't want to help anymore, the doctor said he asked for it on his own initiative. At the time of the injection, she reconfirmed, do you really want to do this? In fact, being tall is kind, and she can't help herself in many cases.

The short red-haired Masha is in stark contrast with the blonde and tall Oia. These girls who were traumatized in the war, after the war, have to continue to live amidst starvation and discrimination. The two girls carefully maintained their friendship. I also wanted to kill each other, but also afraid of losing each other. Although there are no dead bodies and broken walls, "Tall Man" shows the horror of war through two girls, and the pain of war penetrates all aspects of life. The soldier who picked up the girl said that the female soldier would obey for the sake of food, and Martha was unable to have children because of multiple abortions in order to survive the war. "There are no women in war" said, "We know nothing about war. We all understand war from the perspective of men. We are all prisoners of war under the "masculine" pen." "Tall" shows the other side of the war. Although the country is victorious, people have suffered tremendous trauma. The women who were poor, painful and desperate in the war are still trying to restore normal living habits.

    The dogs have been eaten up, why do they still smell barking. The birds are all gone, how can you still hear the birdsong? Women have been sterilized, why can they give birth to boys? His eyes are like you, his nose is like me, and he is tall, healed the desolation of the whole city. One-armed men can spread their wings, their paralyzed limbs are dead, whoever has a nosebleed on the triumphant skirt, who is gestating a new life in the womb of the age, who is stunned in the old age and crushes the children of the Soviets.

    The world is bleak and bleak, a place of miserable green and sorrowful red.
