The self-transformation of the knight

Jabari 2022-04-10 09:01:08

The close-up of the horse, the demeanor of horseback riding, the distant view of the grassland, and the face illuminated by the bonfire, the candid and galloping life of the American cowboy makes the film very full and layered. The broken family has a wonderful emotional line that connects the three closely. The flaws of chivalry are slowly filled by family affection. Life is about giving up your life, but in the end you have to find your own destination. If a horse is injured and cannot gallop freely, it can only lead to death, and we are human and have the right to live. When we need to face reality, please let go of our stubbornness and those so-called dreams. This is the transformation of a wounded knight, returning to life from a fanatical dream of competition.

    La mise en scène minimaliste porte en elle toutte effusion et son déploiement émotionnel en douceur. Ancrée dans 1 territoire donné, la caméra,qui se départit du regard démiurgique, capte discrètement la sublimation de l'humanité qui se dégage de ce paysage apaisé
