Snails, caterpillars, ants, dandelions, dragonflies, etc. have become so beautiful under the photographer's lens that I can't believe they are the nasty little animals we are familiar with. Is it because we are usually too arrogant to ignore or even distort their existence? I really want to say, did the photographer do special treatment to these "actors" like they do stars, such as bathing and putting on makeup, even the inner world of a caterpillar may be difficult for us to understand. Fortunately, I don't have much ambition, let the world continue to keep its mystery. But fortunately I know that there are indeed some secrets in this world.
The title of the movie is very good. A creature is a complete world, and an animal or a person is a small universe.
The film, said to be the result of 20 years of research, won the Technical Award at the 1996 Cannes Film Festival. To select a special group, select their special side, and focus on shooting and editing, I think this creativity is worthy of praise. In a very ordinary world, as long as you are willing to turn your head and take a second glance, your heart will be at that moment, and the value of creativity is here. When you take a second look at "Microscopic World", you are not surprised by a French film about small insects. What I have given to me is never to describe the complex human society. Familiar insects such as snails, caterpillars, ants, morning glory, and dragonflies have so many little-known behaviors under the lens of photographers. These little insects Not only did they get bigger under the camera, their actions were a whole new world.
Recalling that when we were young, the nature teacher told us to gather leaves and observe insects. Now I think back on why childhood is so memorable, because you can always find so much fun in observing a little ant. A life is a world. Even the world of a caterpillar can be incomprehensible to us. This is how insects live, how they are born and die, how they store food, and how they mate. This is really a wonderful microscopic world. I remember reading Fabre's Insects, and after reading several chapters, I was surprised that an old French man could endure all the hardships brought by the urgency of life, because the insect world brought him so much happiness. To say that the French are romantic enough comes from their careful observation of their lovers. It seems that their observation of insects is by no means inferior to that of human beings. We, who are self-identified as higher animals, are not inferior to human beings in front of these small insects and face God. Words flashed through my brain: All living beings are equal. Knowing that the history of insects is much longer than that of human beings. Although we are the strong ones of nature, the master of nature is nature itself. Every insect is this A natural part of nature. Thank you for having such a film telling us that outside of human society there is a microscopic world that we are familiar with but unfamiliar with.
