The 8th screening day of the main competition unit of the 11th #Faro IslandFilm Festival# will bring you "Guling Street Teenage Murder Case", and the following will bring you the speechless comments of the hesitant teenagers on the front line!


Mosaic:

A deep sense of loneliness and need, empathy.


RIVER:

The moment the knife was inserted into Xiao Ming's body was the time to wake up from the dream.


Candice:

The scorching sun of summer is a color of anxiety, which is once rendered youthful.


Swim, swim, little fish:

What else can I say, youth is over, and we have nowhere to run.


George:

OMG has nothing to say. Honey is the perfect character in the perfect movie.


fire_storm:

The most perfect work in Chinese history, Yang Dechang sees society too thoroughly.


Fruit trees:

Who doesn't want to dip into an era in captivating textures? The finished body of the movie.


Leah:

Yijun said: "There is a desire that is the hardest to give up, that is to change the world." Suddenly he understood why Xiao Si would kill Xiao Ming.


Not a rabbit slot:

The boy's flashlight shone into every curiosity, a pair of glasses and radio that went up and down. We are all weak in the world.


We Min Hee:

Watching this group of teenagers seriously form gangs, I really don't know whether to think it's ridiculous or scary. The oppressive atmosphere of the special period looms over the characters from time to time.


Sparrow:

In a four-hour narrative, the confrontation between the boy and the world was out of balance the moment he stabbed the girl. In a vain attempt to change the world, he embarked on the road of crime, falling into a deeper predicament step by step, and remained silent.


Cornices:

No one is spared the common scars in the torrent of the times. The pain of a generation must rely on this kind of fine grinding to have its true flavor. Those moments that sting us are the silhouette in the attic, and the girl standing at the door.


Grid artist:

The innocent young man revealed his feelings about the past, and all living beings formed a sadness. Childish fantasy honey, life forced from innocent girls, teenagers who have completely collapsed, they all belong to the entire era.


Xiaofeng and your waning moon:

You can't change the world, and trying to change society and others will only make you the same. Through the growth and destruction of a young man, Yang Dechang tore the world a little bit in front of the audience, too profound, too heavy, and too helpless. Xiao Si's last stab was not only to Xiao Ming but also to the world and himself.


cost wood:

The most brilliant thing is to write about the event itself, but also about the society and the times. It seems to be a personal or family tragedy for Zhang Zhen, but it is a tragedy of the times for one or two generations. To borrow the lyrics from The Orphans of Asia: How many are searching for the unsolvable question? How many people sigh helplessly in the middle of the night? How many people's tears were wiped away in silence? Dear mother, what's the point of this?


Bob_Chow:

In short, this film pushed me to step into the world of cinema and dare to wave and touch that screen. Such times and youth have been obliterated, so there was no such film before, and there will never be again. Violence is never a stack of emotions, impulses, or even some kind of responsibility. In this way, the art of the times, youth, home, and country are reconciled, and the final point is a pale inevitability.


Drizzle:

In four hours, the flow of the plot, the pressures of the family environment, and the circumstances of his society, bit by bit, eroded him, and eventually overwhelmed his world. The coldness behind the bloody pictures on the surface makes people uncomfortable to the extreme. It's so pretty! What's more important is that the film is not boring at all, it is not developing the plot for the sake of foreshadowing, it is just a normal thing, the story unfolds slowly, and murder seems to be only a trivial link.


I know a little about her:

In that wandering summer, when forbearance and restraint were no longer tolerated by society, the anxiety and confusion of the future fulfilled the cruelty and inevitability of tragedy. The disputes between the groups and the marks of bloodstains behind them are all etched into the memory of the whole society. When alienation is flooded in the boundless darkness of this city, whether a loveless future can destroy the belief in life, and whether you will always be a broken soul. Redemption is not the result, remembering is the goal.


Pinsent:

The immaturity and first sexual initiation of adolescents are the eternal themes of the new wave. This is a great saga that is both immanent and historical, classical and modern, violent and quiet, rich in details, imprints of the times and group portraits, as well as character emotion, behavior, process, and time. The light and the dark are blindly contrasted in many places. The political atmosphere of Taiwan in the 1960s was strange, immigrants and local people were mixed and conflicted, the influence of the United States was everywhere (including the influence of Yang Dechang’s film philosophy), and the times were changing in chaos, collapsed. The lost generation and the troubles of young Zhang Zhen, and finally the disappointment of the world led to self-destruction. No matter how many times I wrote on the blackboard, it was difficult to find "I".
