Some personal thoughts:
The male and female protagonists are very good, and the female protagonist even performed the transformation after breaking free, without using too much force and suddenly realizing it, feeling like she has just been opened by Rinpoche. This is reflected in the careful choice of Etsy clothes: for a long time in Germany, her clothes were dark and conservative, with long skirts, buttons tightly buttoned below the collarbone, obviously past life The vestiges of her are still circling around her and can't be thrown away like a package - anyone who's experienced it knows it's true.
The scene where she walked to the lake and threw her wig just happened to echo into the blue baptism pool before the wedding. Think about the role of water in the ceremony: the decision has been made, and a new self is born. I think I got up and went to the beach in Dorset last weekend. I swam all the way to the reef where tourists are afraid to go. The white waves crashed on the rocks. My eyes, nose and mouth were as high as the waves. I felt the endless sea water contained and threatened me. , this feeling is really extraordinary, it makes me want to go swimming in the Wannsee in Berlin, on the evening of eternal summer.
When Moishe and Yanky came to Berlin and continued to worship in their rooms, wrapping up nude figures of women, the narrative they pursued: every child born is compensating for the lives of 60 million Jews; their actions and beliefs in Berlin In this environment (the summer of fun-seeking, "Freedom, Equality") seems out of place, and through this strong contrast is also brewing a silent question, until finally, before Etsy leaves, through the mouth of the piano teacher Say it: Rules are imaginery. In fact, it is not only the rules that are imagined, the necessities in life, like the shaved hair of a woman and the requirements of a kosher, are also imagined. It's just that the religious constraints are more harsh in the modern context, but the so-called constraints imposed on themselves by people living in modern society are also the product of imagination.
From this point of view, I actually don't agree with Yanky cutting off the tendrils that symbolize his identity in the end. If patriarchy forced Etsy to shave his own hair, it was a kind of violence of power, then Yanky cut his own hair as well. It is a kind of surrender to the opposite, abandoning one's identity in front of the values of freedom and equality, and it is also a kind of conversion under pressure. The problem is that Etsy's submission is treated as oppression, while Yanky's submission is treated as a show of sincere change, however: is liberty and equality really closer to "truth" than patriarchy? I believe that the crew is sincerely thinking this, and many people are sincerely thinking that, but the point should be that people have the freedom to choose no matter what, not that people should convert to the truth no matter what. Everyone should be allowed to have their own truth.
