I have a few questions while watching Rosetta;
Question 1: Why has Rosetta been in a hurry and panic movement in the play, and is not blind to the audience?
Thought: Rosetta is constantly in a hurry and panic movement for the purpose of a normal job. The state of movement itself also reflects the huge survival pressure and crisis that the outside world has put on Rosetta, and at the same time reflects Rosetta's inner panic, urgency, paranoia (two conflicts due to unemployment) and violent character. In addition, the director reproduces the real state in the form of documentary follow-up
Question 2: Why is Rosetta's obsession a normal job?
Thinking: A normal job means a minimum living guarantee for Rosetta, which ensures that she can have food, housing, and clothing, and supports the life of a prostitute and alcoholic mother, so Rosetta is like a small animal at the bottom of the society Struggling, hoping to work properly to prevent her from slipping further to the edge of the next hell, to avoid repeating her mother's mistakes. The powerful crisis forced Rosetta to focus all her mind on her normal work, unable to appreciate anything else.
The same is true in modern society. Having a normal job means that migrant workers have a place on the economic map, otherwise life will be unsustainable.
Question 3: Why is Rosetta's character so blind to the audience?
Thinking: Since she firmly believes that a normal job is the only way to help her enter society, and deeply identifies with this mainstream value, she has no time to understand the working mechanism and rules of a normal society. Therefore, shallow cognition led her to act quickly and impulsive without losing blindness. Like a donkey blindfolded.
Question 4: From which point of view was the camera shot?
Thinking: The photography world starts from a documentary perspective. We follow and peep at Rosetta's continuous experience with her, and there is not a single shot without Rosetta.
Question 5: What is the difference between the two figures of mother and Rosetta?
Thinking: The mother is the bottom of the social fringe, and it is the ending that Rosetta who can't find a normal job may slip down. It is the solution that Rosetta tries to prevent and escape. It may even be the root of Rosetta's obsession.
Question 6: Why does Rosetta have no friends or relatives other than her mother?
Thinking: Entering the city in modern society means that we have cut off the relationship with most of our relatives, friends and friends in the big family in the past, and we have fallen into a state of relying on ourselves most of the time. Rosetta's loneliness is also a lack of social connections and social assistance
Background supplement: Rosetta is filming the lives of the people at the bottom of the French-speaking region of Belgium. Due to the free flow of capital around the world, just like the documentary "American Factory", a large number of low-level employees in the manufacturing industry have lost their jobs, and work has become a scarce resource. The state of being a slave and not being able to do so.” For this reason, Rosetta did not hesitate to betray her companions and treat her unemployed companions indifferently, even at the risk of death. She fell into “doing moral things, and it is impossible for moral people to exist at the same time.” Liberal capitalism promises us unlimited development, but what's behind that promise?
