At the beginning of the film there is a sentence: "based on three true stories and some fantasies." The truth of the film makes people fantasy, empathy and mystery lead us to imagine who such a story happened to. And fantasy is intoxicating. Can adapt fairy tales to be both false and true, and can turn reality into a dream, Emile. Kurituska is such a director. The film makes extensive use of the absurd scenes and magical realism typical of European films, but Kurituska, as a witty and humorous master of jokes, uses animals, music and his own expressiveness to tell an otherwise cruel and sad story. Not depressed. The white geese are bathing in blood and preying on it, the bright colors have a strange effect, like the absurdity and cunning of war; the hen is like a mad old woman who keeps pecking at the mirror, and the eggs she lays fall to the ground, Like all people trapped by war or their own past, because people don't recognize themselves in the mirror; the peregrine falcon symbolizes freedom and strength, and it flies through the fire, with the sound of Costa's music Shaking is also what the protagonist yearns for, so Costa murmurs: "I dreamed of you yesterday."; The milk-drinking snake and the biting bell drive the plot with a frightening twist and the arrogance of gears. The plot line is very simple, a pair of hard-working lovers, breaking through many obstacles and eager to escape to the Garden of Eden. But the "past" has remained a hidden story. What was Costa's exile like? Even the bride whose name is too little mentioned, although we know her unusual past, what is her sorrow? Like the villagers, we all know only that "his past was very tragic, very tragic". A war-torn artist and a melancholy and silent refugee in exile, both are wanted by the past, trying to forget and escape from the past. Kurituska belongs to Eastern Europe, and the sadness of displacement pervades the work of Eastern European artists and writers. War, lost, lost, they were trapped in their land and lost it again, the lost home forced them to embark on a journey to find Paradise Lost. "The way to go is either one or the other, so we should stand at home, but where is the home." So the protagonist is also a portrayal of Kurituska himself. The "past" is interspersed with simple plots, three simple stories, as two lovers on the run from the end of the world struggling with the sins of the past become poetically romantic and rich. As a director, Kurituska presents beautiful scenes and non-serious jokes to the audience with hustle and bustle, dumb and noisy commoners, melodious Serbian dance music, celebratory carnivals, lively dancers Milai Na, Zaga, who is exaggerated and overly enthusiastic, and the jealous rivalry between the two women, the joyful truth and jokes are blurred here. But as the actor and the one who whispered to the director, Luska chose to hide, under his black umbrella, among the soft golden reeds, in his own peep and silence. The mysterious and melancholy Italian woman, and him, silenced by exile and suffering , but in the hiding place, two people who try to forget their past embrace each other and fall in love. While telling this story, the film satirizes the war, the speculators, and the ignorant happy people. All of this is like the British general killing all those who had just survived the war for the betrayal between himself and the muse. Just like people, the villagers survived the enemy's war, but failed to escape the slaughter of people who had nothing to do with them. The absurdity is evident. The luxuries of truth and beauty fascinate people, but bring endless doom. Destiny always interprets life in different ways, and many times it doesn't explain it clearly. Heavy and painful, changing people with the past, just like the film "I grew up in Iran": "I tried to live a normal life like other people my age, but what I went through has always weighed on my heart and I can't breathe ." But Costa is one of those people, "suffering can't hurt me". He was in his hiding place, not indifferent, not panicking, he had his music, his love, his cunning joy and his eternal pain. The wise fool said, "Look, he's in love, you can tell from his face." When Monica said, "You remind me of myself when I was young." found a desire. White butterflies circle around the bride in the well, oak trees and rainstorms symbolize unswerving love, bouquets on the train tracks, wooden houses crumbled in the vast wilderness, a female voice with strong Eastern European flavor like a religious chant, the magical style makes people feel I think of a fishing boat with a dim butter lamp lit in the illustration, which makes the film full of fairy tales and dreams. This is a film like poetry, but without the grand praise and the poignant criticism and irony, sometimes melancholy, sometimes joyful and mild, sometimes cruel. Every shot is like an image in a poem, telling the love, life, and souls still in exile with the past but no inscription. Not angry. "But Costa is one of those people, "suffering can't hurt me."
