This kind of (which?) film is unavoidable and dull, but the airtight posture is very uncomfortable - it can't be called a high pole or a classic, but it is like a heavy pillar, where the pestle is, anyone can Can't even move. Behind/under the power is the cultural vein. The composition of civilization is inclusive of all things, even the dark, harsh and indifferent side of humanity. Came to a peaceful sea of ​​culture? No, it's just a very observational and meticulous picture in the director's hands, with a very clear context and distinct layers. There are too many seas of tranquility like this in the world. The whole film can't be called heartwarming, the rhythm is gentle, and the transmission of values ​​is not ambitious. I can't tell which kind of dullness it belongs to. But it can be seen that under the influence of the director's color, this film is a very barrier-free microscope-like cultural observation film. High-scoring bean friends don’t have to be complacent, and those who appreciate powerlessness don’t have to care about contempt from the other side. The interesting thing about civilization is that observation is only one part of it.

    The image of water, the image of tree, the image of fire, the image of soil, mutual growth and mutual restraint, family and war, there is love and hate.

Rather than on reflection on war? Deep reflection does not tolerate excessive coincidences.

    Cleverly borrowed the clues of doing a will task, which is similar to a treasure-hunting game, the characters are clearly drawn, and the characters are drawn in a few colors. The Radiohead gas field is really eye-catching. There are profiles. The bloody plot and unpretentious self-questioning are also rare. There is no lack of dark humor and all kinds of innuendo. In recent years, the Middle East issue and the leader in Canadian films

Incendies quotes

  • Notary Jean Lebel: Will of Mrs. Nawal Marwan... To Notary Jean Lebel: Bury me with no casket, no prayers, naked, face down, away from the world. Stone and epitaph. I want no gravestone, nor my name engraved anywhere. No epitaph for those who don't keep their promises. To Jeanne and Simon: Childhood is a knife stuck in your throat. It can't be easily removed. Jeanne, Mr Lebel will give you an envelope. The envelope is for your father. Find him, and give it to him. Simon, the notary will give you an envelope... The envelope is for your brother. Find him, and give him the envelope. When the envelopes have been delivered you will be given a letter. The silence will be broken, a promise kept, and you can place a stone on my grave and on it engrave my name in the sun.

  • Notary Jean Lebel: Death is never the end of the story. It always leaves tracks.
