First of all, the dvd version is not very good, and the subtitles appear a little wrong. So some of the dialogue is missing. From the camera in the dormitory at the beginning to the toilet, I suddenly felt very similar to China. Specifically, this film made me feel what I can only say is true, a bit of a magnum documentary flavor. Many people say that the tone of this film is very depressing, but I really like the color in the toilet, maybe because I have been studying color sensitivity recently.
Abortion is not something that people feel incredible in China now. However, under different social backgrounds and cultural differences, this matter has become a main line of concern. With this main line, little by little, the monotonous and boring life of communism is revealed. and various social issues.
This sense of oppression and documentary from the beginning to the end of the long shot brought me into a real environment. No music and no dramatic rendering makes everything more real. It even makes me think this is a documentary. Perhaps the award-winning and moving place is also at this point. Having watched too many big-budget 3D things, this kind of thing may instead arouse the curiosity of the audience. The end of the film is as happy as a mouth-watering blow. All the actors did not face the camera from beginning to end, and the last glance seemed to wake up the audience who were satisfied with their voyeurism, and it ended without any emotion. In the end, the burden is really in place, and there is a way of being a leopard.
I personally don't like this style. But there must be a reason for winning. Worth learning and reference.
