I don't know what's wrong with the people who write slogans on the posters. Now, they often use some big gimmicks, dramatic and exaggerated language slogans to make people grand, for fear that people don't know this movie. I remember the slogan of "Lust and Caution" is "true love is innocent", people who don't know it think it is a great love theme. The slogan of this film is no exception. What a thousand-foot wave of the education system to satisfy hunger. In fact, in the film, the director did not and did not intend to impose his own subjective thinking or certain conclusions on the audience. The director is more about asking questions, re-seeing today's France and today's French high school classrooms with a new perspective and vision. For example, about the debate about the African Cup among those black people, one of them has already developed a complete psychological identity with France, while more culturally (the mother who doesn't eat with friends), psychologically (there is always repatriation back to the country) danger) are still difficult to generate an identity.
With the increase of overseas illegal immigration, how to deal with the population problem of non-Franken people has become a hot topic in French society. Of course, the director can't deliberately show his heart and concern about French national affairs by using small and medium to see the big. The director is just restoring an ordinary French high school classroom, a group of lovely children who often cause trouble for teachers. Although skin color, nationality, and ethnicity will bring many differences, but the relationship between young people and teachers is very different. Contradictions, teenage rebelliousness, and many other things are common.
The greatest achievement of the film lies in its development of the spirit of realism and realism. The film takes full advantage of the spirit of the infinite lens that is unique to European films, that is, the four sides of the lens do not represent the world in the film, such as the last scene where the two chairs stand side by side is actually before the classroom is depicted from another angle. The situation, of course, complemented the atmosphere of the ball game outside. The semi-recorded format, the rare background sound (piano melody faintly when the teacher is speaking, but probably the ambient sound of the music teacher next to it), and the story structure that does not conform to the drama mode can firmly grasp the audience. After spending 2 hours in such an ordinary French classroom, it can be seen that the director's use of the language of film is perfect.
