Go to Abbas in a cold winter

After spending a long time in the concrete buildings that symbolize modernity and winter in the Academy of Fine Arts, I found the small theater of the art gallery. Abbas is there.

But, obviously, I was late. Hussein was carrying a bag of plaster upstairs, calling "Tahli, Tahli", and Tahli was silent in the depths of the movie lens.

I thought it would be a "real" movie, that is, film. However, it is DVD projection. There is nothing wrong, the roughness of DVD is closer to the quality of Abbas, because he has never tried to beautify his life.

Some people say that the translation of "Lover under the Olive Tree" is too much, and "Under the Olive Tree" is more faithful to the style of Abbas. Indeed, the former is a bit kitsch and narrow, and it is easy to lead our imagination of movies astray. And you know, Abbas wants to show more than love, even he rarely mentions love.

If the characters in his movies have a commonality, it is: they are all stubborn and determined people with an unquestionable attitude towards life, such as Masons Hussein, such as the silent Taheri (her Silence does not mean that she has no choice in her heart. For example, a woman who walks a long way to take a bath, such as an old man who has lost his wife, is no longer married because "We have lived together for 50 years, and she gave birth to 6 children for me, so, That (referring to remarriage) is not good". For example, in "Where is My Friend's Home", the children who set out to find a way to return a workbook, such as those in "The Taste of Cherry" who don’t compromise with their own beliefs in life People. Yes, without compromise, then, is this based on religion or ethnicity?

Abbas is like a stranger who has explored the land of peach blossoms. He has been inquiring about and silently admiring it, as Linz is to the Lisu people in the Gospel Valley, as we are to the people on a good land.

In addition to movies, there is also a photo exhibition by Abbas. It turns out that he is also a person who has strong emotions for roads and trees-an extension to the distance and an extension to the heights. Roads and trees, they seem to accompany each other at all times, like warp and latitude, time and space.

This cold winter, I am standing in front of another snowy world, a world reproduced in someone’s heart, composed of roads, distances, sky, clouds, and trees. They are silent and omnipresent.

As he said:

Lord loved ones
give us rain from a touch of gentle clouds
, although from that strong, burning, burning, cloud beckons death
Amen

    Girl, you must never agree. This man understands very well that he married to change his class attributes. Of course, this is understandable, but you have to be sober, do you want to become his pawn. Look at his remarks, start to show good, promise something he can't do, and gradually build a house, will allow you to continue to study, will not let you do housework, these are verbal promises, according to his work Ability cannot be achieved. Then he saw that a sweet jujube would not work, so he started to divide the girl's affection, saying that girls can't listen to her grandma, after all, the old people have outdated ideas. Then began to beat the girls, your parents died in the earthquake, and you are not the most beautiful, there are more beautiful girls than you, I can go to propose marriage. Girl, you are right to be silent, read, keep reading, don't jump into the fire pit.

    8.3 The alienation narrative is Abbas’s approach to life or close to reality. The fictional nature of the film’s reality is revealed at the beginning and the fictional nature of "Life and Growth" is shown in the film to remind the audience that there is a gap between reality and reality in the film. The difference is that in this way, the film is full of hints to real life. Although it does not have the ambition of "overstepping the limits of the film", it is a more sincere and excellent work than "Life and Growth".
