you are not me.

Two years ago, I was planning to contact Middle East countries for work reasons, so I checked some basic political knowledge in the Middle East on the Internet.

In the entire history of wars in the Middle East, religion was indeed the main cause in the early days, but religions in the later period were also blamed. This will create "contradiction", it was only more than 600 years ago, just like I can't have two emperors in the dynasty, you fight and I fight each other and disagree with each other, think about it carefully, from the accumulation of more than 600 years to the present, it has been continuously sublimated, misunderstood, and more and more complicated. In addition to the conflict of interest in colonization and resources... Obviously, the director bypassed this part. I thought that if I didn't bypass it, I don't know how long and complicated the background explanation would be, so I can It is easy to understand the director's avoidance. It's just ironic that Muhammad relied on religion for spiritual unity at the beginning. Look, it's a very sharp double-edged sword.

So when the complexity is bypassed, the director just interprets the theme of "you are not me, how can you understand my pain", and just puts the background of the story in the history of war, making the story especially sad. If it is placed between you and me in peace, it is a simple implication - what you see is not necessarily the truth, and what you cannot see may be the truth. Be a human being, be tolerant.

    Simply, astonishingly good. It was raining in the movie when I watched it, and it happened that a sudden torrential rain in Venice hit the ceiling of the theater like a panoramic sound effect. At the end of the curtain, the audience burst into applause and thunderstorms mixed together, as if the story on the screen continued into the real world - so dramatic!

    When I look at it, I have a position and I will become someone who will fight for my position, ranging from human rights and democracy to gender differences. I am constantly criticizing the rights of Christians, rash lawyers, the Palestinians’ forbearance, politicians’ positions, and Christians shouting. The rage he felt when his daughter-in-law felt, but when he repaired the Palestinians' car and the Palestinians apologized in a man-to-man fashion, he suddenly woke up. This is actually a very simple thing, but it is really complicated. The director's handling is very rational, the rhythm is very suitable, and it constantly arouses the audience's thinking and emotions. It is a very good film.
