Delicate pictures, depressing atmosphere, gloomy tones, the whole film is filled with despair.
The soundtrack for the photo show is great, the atmosphere is mysterious and not too scary.
Everyone is guilty and everyone deserves pity.
His father was hypocritical and cowardly, but he disobeyed the Holy See and ran away in anger. However, he had a rebellious and tough spirit. Although his hunting skills were poor, he was still the backbone of a family.
The mother is suspicious, sensitive, and thin, but considering the pain of bereavement one after another, it is normal for her nerves to be fragile.
The eldest brother represents an ignorant sexual desire, and occasionally prys on his sister's body. In order to prevent her from being sent to someone else's house as a servant, he is strong and brave, and imagines breaking into the forest alone to hunt.
The twins are ignorant and can easily communicate with the devil to make wishes, but they are innocent, and they are the only two living beings in the film.
The little brother represents the hope of a new life, but it is the first to be dashed, which also sets the tone of despair for the film.
The elder sister finally turned to the devil and became a witch. She was once healthy and strong. As the eldest daughter, she not only did housework, but also took care of her younger siblings. It was sent to someone else's house as a replacement as a servant.
Everyone is innocent and everyone is unredeemed.
Christianity is built under the structure of a patriarchal society, and when men (fathers) are weak and hypocritical, the world collapses.
Father and the church ran away in anger and led the family to live alone by the forest, but they could not solve their living problems. For food, he stole and sold his wife's silver cup in exchange for hunting tools, and took his son to the forest to hunt, breaking his own prohibition against entering the forest.
This led to two things. The daughter was suspected of stealing the silver cup by the wife, and the son dared to enter the forbidden forest.
Due to the poor hunting methods, there was no success. In order to survive the winter to solve life problems, he discussed with his wife to send his daughter away, but he never wanted to be heard by the children.
The daughter is in a crisis of trust, and the son walks into the forest to meet the witch.
When his son died and his wife was dying, the father couldn't tell who was the devil's messenger, so he turned his head and locked his children in the sheepfold and locked them with the black sheep. This is clearly to lock the victim and the suspect together. ,Very serious consequences.
He went back to his house to sleep soundly, completely unaware that his wife woke up from a dream and encountered evil, and that the children in the sheepfold were murdered.
Therefore, although it cannot be said that all this is decided by the father, it is definitely directly related to him. Of course, he has also become one of the poor tools of the devil. The devil's goal was achieved, and a pair of horns took his life.
In the end, the daughter sold her soul and became a witch, and the family fell apart.
