But looking at the whole film, the background of this war is vague, the relationship between certain characters is unclear, and the narrative is often broken. You can only vaguely see the outline of the story: the heroine refuses to leave her coffee plantation. , Even in the face of the terrible coming war. In my opinion, these complicated "topics" are not the focus of the director. She only wants to portray a tough and unyielding white woman who is destined to live on the continent of Africa, without all kinds of hardships and difficulties. There is only a coffee plantation in my heart. As a wife, she may fail, but as a mother, she has done a great deal, and her doting on her son is heartbreaking and disturbing. The director has given her the most shots in the film. Even if the shot is her back, I can still hear the character’s breathing and feel her mood is changing...
She is in the contemporary world of cinema. Rare actor Isabelle Huppert.
