There are always people in the world living lives you can't imagine. Far away Macedonia, the land of honey. It seems like an independent manor, no need for electronic communication equipment, no need for gorgeous clothes and houses, or even lights, just a vast expanse of wilderness, the stars are vast, candles are lit when the night falls, and cattle are grazing during the day. Sheep, look after the bees, the white gauze leaks the crystal clear honey, take a sip, imagine the harvest time in September, the boys practice wrestling, play in the river, watch the bees rest on the bank and face the bees lying on the river. The dead tree hole sings, walks home in the sunset glow, the sky plane flies by dragging a long smoke, holding a burning branch and knocking on the cliff, creating a meteor that will accidentally ignite the hair. Sitting around the campfire at night drinking a glass of brandy with the neighbors, waking up the sleepy mother, bringing her a piece of sweet watermelon, dyeing her hair a beautiful color to go to the grand festival, and giving her a long kiss before leaving bid farewell. Favorite is a few details and a few words here. "Everyone wants to look good, Mom, and so do I." "Who wants to?" "I think." "I can't hear you, honey." The mother, who had lost her teeth, was lying On the bed, I watched my daughter dye her hair and prepare meticulously for the festival. The sun shone into the house and cast shadows on the walls. "Do you really need me to help you?" "Do you remember the time when you helped me?" "The days when I could help are long over." "Why?" Fumble around to find the sides of the hood. "Daughter, stay safe and healthy" "Let me kiss you now" "Let me kiss you too" "Kiss me back" "Enough~" A long kiss. Suddenly, this is one of the best moments in the entire documentary. When I saw the back, the film seemed to focus on showing the hard side of this free life. In fact, this emotion has been running through the film from beginning to end. Perhaps two sides of things are inevitable, just as good and bad qualities coexist in a person. Away from or lack of dependence on scientific and technological civilization makes life return to its true and pure state. People's happiness no longer depends on the giving of scientific and technological civilization, but they are also isolated from civilization. What is touching is that people here are rarely close to the modern society of scientific and technological civilization, and the people here still maintain a warm and ethereal spirit. "Can you imagine when spring will come?" "Do you like spring?" "Do you have spring?" "Of course there is" "Too many springs have passed." At the end of the documentary, on a moonlit night in the middle of winter, when the snow covered the earth, mother With the slowly rising moon left together. The daughter sat on the empty bed where her mother slept, picked up the old radio again, and finally heard the melody on the radio that her mother had not heard before her death. The final shot of the land of honey freezes on the strong woman's face with her amber eyes like clear honey.
