is based on a folklore told to children in the island country: If you peek at the fox spirit getting married, the fox will be very angry.
The curious child listened to the drums and hid among the trees to peep at the singing and dancing fox marriage team. With fear and curiosity, the child was noticed. When he got home, his mother made him have to apologize to the fox before returning home. The child went to look for the fox and saw a rare beauty in his life.
This dream is full of magical fantasy colors. Mysterious legends, elusive drumming, grotesque traditional fox dances, and smoky forests all create a childlike world.
This dream is beautiful. The child's home is next to the beautiful mountain forest. It is conceivable that his childhood was running through the forest, unlike modern people, who were just bored among steel monsters as a child. When the child ran out of the house and went to the fox to apologize, the beauty was even more extreme.
The second broken dream and tears
boy saw a strange little girl at home, but his sisters couldn't see it. The boy followed the little girl to a cascading mountain, but found that the little girl was the soul of the dead peach tree, and the other felled peach trees were staying here.
Color is the deepest impression I have of this dream. The souls of peach trees are arranged in sequence on the mountains, wearing kimonos of various colors, which are particularly eye-catching in front of the green mountains. When the souls dance, it seems to be the day when the peach blossoms are scattered in the late spring, and it is not just a dull pink. Bright-hued souls spin, leap, pace, and stagger among the mountains. In a long-term view, the beauty of the exaggerated peach blossoms has a panoramic view.
The boy wept bitterly at the thought that the peach trees had been cut down, which had been part of his childhood but were broken by the blind development of adults. The anthropomorphic approach to the soul of the peach tree highlights that this is not just felling and destruction, but even murder.
This dream has an obvious environmental protection meaning. If nature is lost, the first thing that human beings will lose is happiness.
The Third Dream, Snow and Despair
The use of the sound of the third dream is very brilliant. Several young people walking on the Daxue Mountain are numb and stiff from the cold. They only rely on their consciousness to walk. At this time, they only hear the sound of the wind and snow, without any music, and the conversations between them are all indistinguishable. It was a loud shout, which was easily overwhelmed by the sound of wind and snow, and the whole scene was full of despair.
The Fourth Dream: War and Pain
This is a dream about war and an anti-war dream.
The commander of the third squad was returning home from the battlefield and saw the ghosts of all the soldiers of the third squad as he passed through a tunnel.
The footsteps of the commander before entering the tunnel represent most of the people who have returned home after the war. They are tired, heavy and numb. Every step they take reminds people of a devastated heart. There was no joy in coming home, the commander's face was tired, stained and stubborn. Hearing the barking of a dog made a professional officer tremble. The bravery before the war had been worn away by the cruel battlefield.
Entering the tunnel, there is silence, only footsteps and faint echoes are heard, dark, monotonous, and lonely.
Walking out of the tunnel, there is a bleak winter scene all around, only a big red lantern swaying in the wind.
That's when the ghost appeared.
The neatly dressed Private Noguchi walked straight from the tunnel.
Noguchi was the representative of the dead soldiers, and the Japanese army brainwashed him into dying for a meaningless death, making him die for the ambitions of others.
Even though he had died in battle, he still had such "aspiration" and stood up to salute vigorously, as if he had never left the army and the battlefield.
However, they never saw their relatives again.
When Noguchi looked at the dim light at the foot of the mountain, the cruelty of the war was immersed in his heart. He said that there was his home, and that his father and mother were still waiting for him to return. For the war, his death was lighter than a feather, but for the two old people waiting at home, they had lost everything.
When the ghosts of all the members of the third team appeared, their steps were neat and their movements were unified, and the officers at the front of the team shouted: "The third team, no casualties!" They looked proud and had high fighting spirit. This made people feel bitter. They thought they were still alive, but they were a group of ghosts who had died in battle. The so-called "no casualties" were actually wiped out.
To die in battle is a tragedy, but to live is an even greater misfortune.
The commander, the only survivor of the entire squad, left the battlefield and returned to his hometown. But just as he showed us when he walked alone at the beginning, he did not have the slightest joy or rejoicing. Militaristic thinking will make him suffer humiliation and contempt for the rest of his life, others will not look at him, and the families of other war dead may hate him. And in his heart, there will always be the memory of the dead comrade-in-arms. Every face of the third squad, the death of every soldier, and the brokenness of every family haunts his dreams for a long time. The nightmare of war will follow the surviving people like the vicious wolf dog in the film, and the ghost will not disperse.
Those who are alive will suffer through the rest of their lives with all the pain that they have not experienced when they died in battle.
The tones used in this dream are very cold and bleak, mostly gray, white and black. The only colored lantern is still crumbling in the darkness.
There is no soundtrack on the sound, brutal and real. The barking of dogs, footsteps, and wind were all handled with exceptional clarity, like the only sounds in the entire world.
The performance does not directly depict the cruel scenes of the war, but through the words, actions, and demeanor of the surviving commanders and the dead ghosts after the war, not only convincingly criticizing the war, but also effectively expressing the damage caused by the war to countless people. of pain that accompanies a lifetime.
