Reminds me of the boring time when I was learning the piano as a child. The university graduation project focuses on children with small bodies and big souls, which shows Laota's compassionate principle and meticulous observation ability. Music also cannot wash away the boy's desire to control the machine. The story of the uncle and Zhengtai.
The two objects, the violin and the road roller, are metaphors for the current society, talking about class differences, the disparity of identities, the working class and musicians, bread and violins, old and new things, peace and war, and old-fashioned love. First glimpses of mirror language, conscious water and the use of classical music. The film carries a strong socialist filter color - red and blue.
A violin and a road roller combined into one is a complete Soviet, a romantic and soft tough guy. Music contains primitive desires and is a common language that transcends class identities. This music is also the reason why it can urge people to sin and redeem their souls. The ending is full of hope and love.
The background music of ding dong at the beginning of the film: balloons in the mirror, falling fruits, boats in the water, clocks, children's splendid world like a kaleidoscope
Cheerful piano performance, low and melodious wind music: the innocent but sad world of children
The delicate violin shows the turbulent heart of the characters
Close-up of the violin: Holy pure violin pure music
Boys and workers quarrel: heavy double bass
Demolition of old buildings: a passionate symphony (abandoning the old and welcoming the new)
Boys play the violin: together with the workers, it is free and melodious. When alone, the melody of loneliness, the isolation of the bourgeoisie
