The little Italian brother in the group organizes an international film club every two weeks. People from all countries and continents gather together to choose a film that best reflects their own country's culture, history, customs, and customs. Watch and discuss together. cultural difference. Today is David from Portugal. I chose a story about Portuguese immigrants in France. Because of the economic downturn, Portuguese immigrants immigrated to France in large numbers. It will also be denied due to immigration status. In the movie, a Portuguese family living in France works as a housekeeper in a rich man's house, surrounded by romantic, pretentious and pompous French style, but when entering the protagonist's house, it is Portuguese. But they are ashamed to mention their Portuguese identity. When these people return to Portugal, they will be treated differently by the people in their hometown because they have immigrated to France, so they will become marginalized people, wandering between two countries and two cultures. not fully integrated. They smile reluctantly, their humbleness and powerlessness are the loneliness of strangers. Is there a simple movie about Chinese immigrants from the perspective of ordinary people, not like a Chinese partner who defines success in a single subculture, and not like the big brother who is so good The bitterness and hatred are deep. Just an ordinary working-class family, loving parents, kind and hard-working children, calm and objective third perspective brought to see the trivial embarrassment in the daily life of strangers, cautious, lonely, such as the British in Lost Tokyo using Japanese Treadmill, the voice prompts are in Japanese, which makes him unable to control the speed. For example, Chinese people who love food always prepare a hearty lunch to go to work. When eating with colleagues, others only eat sandwiches and yogurt. He wants to integrate into the local life. So I also learned to eat sandwiches, but I was still not used to it. The last shot at night was the uneaten sandwich lying in his lunch box, and it was thrown into the trash the next day. And along with these small losses, he gained a different color of happiness, as well as a cherished warmth. I think of my colleague from Yemen again, he hardly participates in such cultural exchange activities, I imagine if he joins, what kind of movies he will bring? The only thing I know is "what is home" , war, poverty, hunger, uneducated people, parents who only have children and no support... This is their current situation, so he doesn't join, which makes me feel a little sad, the most random and illogical thing in this world is that we can't Choosing where I was born and what kind of family I was born in, because of randomness, I don't think it's a reason why a person likes or dislikes a country, a culture, and where we come from should not define who we are, but this idea is the most unrealistic. How to define the relationship between the individual and the country, I hate patriotism, I hate collectivism, I hate all cultural indoctrination that wants to incite collective emotions, but I can't help but admit that whether I love it or not, it is rooted there, the kindness The sense of belonging and belonging cannot be changed in any way. Speaking of patriotism, it is better to say that I love my hometown, the memories, relatives, and friends there. Patriotism is a lie of the ruling class. I heard a friend tell me that there is a giant aircraft carrier in an extrajudicial waters in the Americas, which is specially used for illegal transactions by the world's richest people. As long as you have money, you can endlessly release human nature, desire, evil, and greed. on the onion browser. Is this human nature, or the loss of human nature?
