Not Here：
Life is like a road, you have traveled a long way, and some things still have to be turned around before you can walk the road well.
Kome Kome:
The bystander effect, no one cares, may not be the darkest side of human nature, the darkest is the complete loss of hope. The truth may never be found, but the warm hope may be found.
Dazhao:
The documentary about the famous "bystander effect" case was investigated and filmed by the victim's younger brother with disabilities, but the content is not limited to the moral high point of the case and the victim, as well as the irrational reports of the media and the real situation faced by bystanders , Is it apathy or public opinion hurting people? When will we choose to call the police next time?
Midnight no one:
It is too easy to accuse "spectators of indifference", because "the majority" are always silent, and from this perspective, the film starts the replay, walking into the life of the deceased, into the scene moments witnessed by witnesses, Going into the rest of the life of all those who are still alive, and devoid of the truth that can be manipulated, is a new operation under this proposition but with stronger social torture. The desperate cry at the end of the film is still echoing, we live next to each other, we have never known each other, the calls for help we passed by at the time, and the splendid lives we once lived. Sorry we missed you.
Queen of the Faroe Islands:
The structure is too "Thank God", some people do harm, some people suffer, some choose to avoid it, some people get bored, only the person who has endured decades of pain struggles to find the truth, what are they insisting on, the truth is not the only result of the incident, never give up It is the unique brilliance of a broken life. Like "Manchester by the Sea", why should we reconcile, why should we spare ourselves and everyone, the self-salvation of ordinary people is almost a false proposition, the scar will not disappear because I think it disappears, and so does the pain. The deafening torture at the end of "Thank God": "Do you still believe in God?" The Vietnam veteran who lost his relatives and lost his legs is also a difficult problem: "A touching lie, a silent truth, what else can we believe?" New York is indeed indifferent The city, religion is also an indifferent religion, the country is also an indifferent country, and human beings are also indifferent human beings, we live in an ice age, and the wind is piercing.
DAY3's documentary will be released later, please wait and see!
