A telling story.
There were no subtitles when I watched it, but I was still amazed. In the film, the summer wind blows through the constantly shaking lotus leaves, and the wind raises large reeds, winding paths in the bamboo forest, and shoots. The siblings frolicked away in the mud, the wind and grass moved and the leaves turned. In such harmony between nature and man, so serene.
The film unfolds from Apu's point of view, even though he wasn't born yet.
Apu's real debut is when his sister can't shake Apu and open his eyes, which is also the real development of the film's narrative. It is worth mentioning that when he was a baby, whether in his mother's arms or in his aunt's cradle, his eyes were closed.
An originally prestigious family slowly declined in this delicate and harmonious dull life, director Rey's mastery of rhythm and mise-en-scene could not tell that this was his debut.
The family is gradually despairing little by little, life has taken a turn, and life is irreversible.
After her sister left, Apu went out with an umbrella.
