Beyond the story

Without any premise, the terrorist attack of 7.22 was fully demonstrated in the opening 30 minutes and the focus was on the social shock after the incident. The narrative is restrained and calm. Except for the protagonist, the victims are only depicted in the medium shot. However, from the struggle of the family after the event, it is easy to imagine that the same emotions also happened to the families of 77 dead and more than 200 injured.

The perception is not limited to the event itself, but pulls back the time to the eighth and ninth centuries AD, when the brave and savage Vikings used long ships and axes to toss Europe to the death. Branches and leaves multiply, those who stay in England become the current British, and those who stay in France become the current French.

Thousands of years have passed, and as the richest Nordic country on earth, the most hard-core leftist intellectuals have been born. Their vision is by no means limited to their own country or even the continent where they are located. They look around the five continents and seven oceans and take the fate of mankind as their starting point. Even if it seems hollow and ludicrous to us and dubbed the "white left".

Was the perpetrator of the terrorist attack wrong? Now of course we speak in unison. But more than 1,000 years ago, it was definitely "patriots" who held this opinion. Originally, the early human race was a competition between Neanderthals and Homo sapiens. In the feudal period, it was a competition between ethnic groups. When the continent as the basic unit seems to be far away, the Nordic thinking has already entered the human destiny body and the like.

Is there something wrong? Whoever it is, it is undoubtedly a warm current for the blue planet, but not necessarily for the Norwegians. In recent years, the waves of xenophobia in Europe have been rising one after another, and right-wing political parties have come to the fore. Our old saying goes that "courtesy of the warehouse" has returned from the peak of human beings to the historical normal. Europe, a continent that has created a splendid culture and industry, will inevitably go through a period of time. Grind, what will happen in the end, no one knows.

    Weakness in the middle and back

    The far-right slaughtered indiscriminately, the survivors’ family faced the trauma, the conscientious defense lawyer was cast aside by the public, the prime minister was held accountable and admitted his mistakes... There is no political conspiracy or shady, and there is no digging into the topics related to the European far-right; Paul Greengrass He is good at filming multi-line tense events that occur in a specific time period. Once the front line is stretched, it is a bit short to shape the inner entanglement of various characters and so on.
