A wonderful coincidence: Two Head On

One is called "There is a man outside the window" and the other is
called "Going Forward".
It seems to be no problem now.
However, look at the English name, the first is called "head on" (released in 1998), and the second is called "head on." "(Released in 2004)
Of course, the first one is an Australian film, and the second one is a German film. The original name is "Gegen die Wand".
However, considering the English level of Germans, "head on" is unlikely to be casual. It should be the director’s choice after the director’s own consideration. It’s
actually nothing great,
but the good news is that the two films are different and the same. The
first one talks about the "Immigration Issue". The first one talks about the Greek immigrants in Australia
. It was the first Turkish immigrant in Germany
to take a boy in his early 20s as the host, and the
second to take a girl in his 20s as the host.
They couldn't bear their family and identity,
so they all chose some form of suicide to resist the
boy through promiscuity. And gay
girls simply cut their wrists and deliberately angered the gangsters to find
their lives, but they couldn’t really get rid of their identity and belonging. The
boy was madly ruining himself and the
girl was madly ruining his own
boy. At the end of the film, they are still continuing their madness. The director made him desperate with the audience.
Fortunately, the girl finally returned to his hometown of Istanbul, married and had children, and lived the life that our ordinary audiences were expecting silently in the heart. The
first Head On won 9 kinds of film awards, IMDB With a score of 7.1, the
second Head On won 20 kinds of film awards (the most important of which was the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival in 2004), and the IMDB scored 8.0
Probably it is the different endings that make them a little
bit better. After all, people still don’t like being too cruel.
