The film tells the suffocating and sighing tragedy of a divorced man who is caught in a sexual assault scandal because of a little girl's lies. The film is extremely depressing, but not dull. Through handheld photography and lenses, the characters experience events as clues, presenting a sense of authenticity similar to a documentary. It is said that the inspiration for the film script came from the director's friend, a psychiatrist who sent the film. A report to him, so the story should have a real prototype.
The lies of the little girl in the movie are the direct cause of Lucas' tragedy. In fact, sometimes children are not as innocent as we imagined. They will also intrigue and form small groups, saying that they are evil. In fact, they cannot distinguish between good and evil, and thus do not understand their own decisions. what are the consequences of what is said. I think if children understand the consequences of their actions, they will basically choose not to do evil. How to make children understand, this is what we adults do.
In fact, the adults who have caused greater and more direct damage to Lucas are those adults with "shotguns". These adults also cannot distinguish right from wrong. They are only willing to believe what they want to believe, and let their inner so-called The sense of justice is served through the power of the group. For example, a psychiatrist conducts inductive questioning of children; for example, in the absence of any evidence, a girl's father is more inclined to believe in a child with an innocent face, even though the other person is a good brother who knows the truth. For example, the residents of the town excluded Lucas because of the trumped-up accusations.
I thought of "The Crowd" - the extreme reckless behavior that groups evolve into. It's really terrifying, Ruan Lingyu and Michael Jackson are the same.
At the end of the film, although things have passed for a long time, Lucas was treated as a prey like a lonely deer when hunting. The man who shot stood in the sun, standing on the commanding heights, his face we can't see. clear.
Through such a low ending, the director expressed a kind of disappointment and helplessness to human nature itself. Although the misunderstanding has been clarified, in a preconceived judgment, there may still be a difference at some point. I hope that as adults with "shotguns", we can objectively analyze, deal with it calmly, and use "shotguns" cautiously, because sometimes it only takes a trumped-up charge or a lie to destroy a person.
