Breathing the catastrophe of fate

A girl who is stubbornly struggling, clumsy and not very beautiful, under one long and shaky long shot, she resolutely and stubbornly impacts the calamity in her short life, and countless trips make suicide fruitless. . "No story, no plot, just depicting the tragic thread that bound Rosetta's life." The hidden narrator, the lens from the perspective that reveals the bottom of the skin, the viewer shares Rosetta's life Ups and downs, peeping together with her eyes, peeping at the flaws and indignation at the bottom, and experiencing the time and space of life that is silent and condensed.

"It truly reflects daily life, without strong dramatic conflicts and bizarre scenes, and tells the social status quo in the post-industrial period and the struggles and painful fates of small people." The Italian realism style is full of humanistic concerns from the civilian perspective. The attitude of cutting into the daily life of the real society in the cry of ideology is used in the Dana brothers' "Rosetta". The three-day job-seeking process is as long as a lifetime, an alcoholic and promiscuous mother, betraying her only friend to seek work and life, deviating from morals and bottom lines for survival every moment, not all” Rosetta's life? The Dane brothers have cleverly abandoned the possibility of Rosetta being "seen" as a woman. She is ordinary and rustic, stubborn and stubborn. She is neither an angel nor a devil, nor does she take advantage of the so-called "gender advantage" of women to be given any meaning. The compassion and preferential treatment on the top of the film (even ambiguous friendship/love has never been forcibly given away), it is also Rosetta's "absolutely dominant action" that implements the entire film's humanistic care for the little people at the bottom. Almost childish collision and toughness are Rosetta's only labels, and like anyone struggling to survive, she is restrained and calm. Intercepting fragments of life, watching the life of the characters from the perspective of a bystander, watching their ill-fated fate - "Even as stubborn as Rosetta, fate never disdains to give even a little pity."

The shaky hand-held photography combined with the long shots followed by the shooting, and the large-scale close-up close-ups challenge not only the director's excellent audio-visual control, but also the audience's tolerance. The point of view of the whole film reciprocates on Rosetta and the third party close to Rosetta. With the close-up detailed composition, it is undoubtedly a broken and incomplete construction. Breathing and footsteps, at the same time moving to her silent and resolute face after encountering setbacks, from passive peeping to active confrontation, are the call and listening of the viewer and the fate of the characters breathing together. The consistent ambient sound highlights the essence of life, the ruthlessness of the city and the banter of fate. Rosetta, who failed to commit suicide, collapsed in pain amid the roar of motorcycles. Even though she sobbed, her face was still indifferent and determined.

What a painful and great move to impact fate, fate and calamity are insoluble, dull and happy I can't keep up with the rhythm of Rosetta, I can only breathe a distant destiny from the dull reality .
