"Kekexili" is finished. Compared to the director's last film, this one had a huge impact on me. The film is all over in the lama's death sutra, but a thorn stuck in my heart, and I couldn't go up or down. The quiet air suddenly peeled and split open, extending my thoughts to those people in the snow-capped mountains. The background music at the beginning of the film is ethereal and distant, and the story is narrated with reporter Gayu's vision as the main line of the lens. The shooting footage is clean, the rhythm and progress are connected to the right "degree", and it is not procrastinated. From the beginning of the mountain patrol, to encountering the body of the Tibetan antelope on the road, the eagle hovering high in the sky, one of the people arrested by the mountain patrol team has a statement from an uncle: the grass has become a barren beach, and the grazing that once relied on for a living The work could not go on and turned to the road of skinning sheep. Liu Dong, who was driving day and night with his "head hanging on the beam", was forced to sell sheepskins in exchange for a large number of supplies to rescue other teammates trapped in the snow-capped mountains after running out of funds to help his teammates, but was unfortunately swallowed by quicksand. What kind of role is Ma Zhanlin? Captain Ritai let him go, but he was beaten to death by his boss, and he watched the whole process. What makes him indifferent and selfish? Gayu asked Ritai if he had sold sheepskins when he really had no funds. , Ritaihui [I only consider Hoh Xil, and my brother. Have you ever seen someone with a long head bow? Their hands and faces are very dirty, but their hearts are very clean. 】 This part of the scene where Liu Dong encounters quicksand is silent for tens of seconds, and I can even hear the rhythm of my heartbeat. One by one, the vicissitudes and desolation feel like dry grass in cold winter, hopeless and hopeless. The wind, snow and yellow sand that covered the sky blocked people's progress, and the confrontation between man and nature became more and more difficult to calm the hearts of the audience. One of the most touching shots belongs to Ritai's departure. With quicksand whistling as the background music, lamentations send heroes, and the dead grass has no life. A really good film is a self-judgment and a reflection on certain values ​​that gives the audience a long aftertaste. They are the guardians of Hoh Xil, and they can "make a fortune" after seizing a large amount of sheepskins (in the latter half, Liu Dong's money from selling sheepskins is much more than their deposits), but it stems from their love for this land, They have always risked their lives and even betrayed each other (many team members did not get married, and their girlfriends broke up after learning that they went to Hoh Xil) loneliness guards this beautiful place. Why are more and more local residents participating in the illegal sale of poached Tibetan antelope? The reason lies in life. When human beings can't survive, other species on the earth will not survive... How cruel life is, how beautiful life is.
