Lilia Forever, a 2002 realistic film by Swedish director Lukas Moodysson. The film begins with a set of shaky shots, accompanied by the German tank's mein herz brennt heavy metal music, with a dark tone, the heroine Lilia, with bruises on her face, her short hair is uneven, and her body seems to have stumbled from injuries. , ran helplessly forward without direction, came to the guardrail of the overpass, stopped, and flashed black. "What on earth did this poor child go through that would make him unable to live?" Just like that, I eagerly wanted to read with such doubts. I have to say that the design of the film's opening is very clever, and many films are also designed in this way, and it has been tried and tested.

Misfortune is always passed on like a domino effect. After Lilia's mother was abandoned, she was forced to be a sex professional, and for her own happiness and a man who could take her to the United States, left Lilia alone. In the face of this cruel world, the same thing happened to her. When she left her good friend to go to Switzerland, her good friend Voroja was desperate and chose death. Fate turns around. Lilia finally chose to end her life, perhaps death is the last resistance to fate.

This very realistic film allows us to see this social evil and pain in Russia just after the disintegration of the Soviet Union. The misfortune of 16-year-old Lilia reflects the indifference, sin and filth of the whole society, which is the misfortune of this society. In a situation where everything was bad, Lilia, full of innocence, had once turned to the people around him for help, her mother. The mother who promised to take her to America destroyed Lilia's original beliefs, voluntarily gave up being his guardian, and begged society to take over, pushing Lilia to the fringes of society. Of course, it can be said that this was not caused by his mother, and the father Lilia had never met was the first executioner. Lilia's aunt, not only did not help her, she even opened her legs to make money with such a small girl. The kind-looking young man represented the darkest sinful body in society, gave Lilia a dream that sounded beautiful, sent her on a plane to Sweden, and finally made Lilia die. The oppressive society, the indifferent people, the huge gap between the rich and the poor, and the failed and bad government give the film a gray tone.

There are several scenes that are impressive.

Lilia's mother wanted to say goodbye to her. Lilia refused indifferently at first. After hearing the sound of the car starting, she ran downstairs frantically and kept crying, "Mom don't leave me, don't leave me here alone." But my mother Still gone, Li fell into the mud, only whispering sobbing. Suffering begins at this point.

Lilya carved "lilya 4-ever" on the wooden chair. Regardless of the guys upstairs who abused her, she insisted on carving these words with a knife. It seemed to herald Lilia's fate.

That portrait of the Virgin, Lilia would take it with her every time she moved, facing her in various situations in her life, praying sincerely, and giving her a beautiful world. In the end, Lilia rushed up excitedly and smashed to the ground. Religious belief can only temporarily numb people's hearts, but it cannot be changed when disaster strikes. No matter how much you pray, Lilia can no longer gain peace of mind from her beliefs. The last hope was dashed.


Some reflections:

"Lilia"'s parents. If you can't give her at least a normal life, why bring her into this world. The world is so dangerous, but you left her young to face it alone. The life of such a bright, kind and beautiful child was first ruined by you. When she needs the protection and care of her family, you have abandoned her, and the conscience of humanity has been wiped out. Such an ending is given by you.

society. Lilia's tragedy was not caused by a specific person, but by the dark forces of the society we all live in. The historical background of the film: The failure of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the disintegration of the Soviet Union have set back Russia's economic and social development for decades. Social ugliness is rampant, and syphilis patients increased by 25 times from 1996 to 2000. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the wars between Russia and Chechnya, Armenia and Azerbaijan have been fought for many years, causing the people to suffer from war. "The collapse of the Soviet Union was the worst geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century, and for the Russian people, it was a real tragedy." - Putin. The collapse of the system, wars, etc., the people are the biggest victims. When the interior of the country is rotting, the human heart will also exude a stench, and the world looks terrible. The government is the object of self-examination.

Love and peace have always been needed, everyone is, give a little to the children who are still suffering in reality, don't let the tragedy happen again, don't let the child's innocent smile die in the dark.
