Timeless and peaceful, full of poetry, the warm and happy country life seems to have no time and no end. However, under the political dictatorship, it is all illusion, and in the end it is a bubble. Although it is a cruel and cold political theme, the director deliberately conceals the bloody violence, not because of censorship, but to use a more advanced way to present the cold and barbaric totalitarianism. The dark tide under the tranquility and warmth was even more powerful. Finally, the blood-stained colonel whimpered and wept. The cold and ruthless Midia looked out of the window. The huge portrait of Stalin rose in the air, and the film completely entered the climax. Later, Midia's suicide by cutting her wrists in cold water echoes both the beginning and the female protagonist's suicide by cutting her wrists. It also deepens her reflection. Under totalitarianism, everyone is sinful and innocent. As for Midia's restraint on the heroine, it doesn't show his warmth, but he has his cold-blooded calculations deep into his bones. He knows the political issues, so he definitely won't have a real relationship with his old lover. The relationship in the film is just a game. Games and revisiting the past, it is really cold and scary to be able to control one's feelings to such a degree that they can be freely retracted. Party humanity.
