Thinking about time
It's been 12 years since the release of "Heavy Rain". The 1994 Golden Lion seems to be a long way off. People's attention has also gradually shifted from the war in Macedonia to Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Iraq. In the blink of an eye, time has flown by, but the film is still talked about by...

Before the rainstorm, flies fly
Times never die, the circle is not round. The three-part story structure that is connected to each other is very common. Inaritu's Tower of Babel, love is a son of a bitch, section chief's destiny, Jiang Wen's The Sun Also Rises and Jarmusu's Earth Night, etc. such a narrative structure. This...

Jump out of the established concept of time and space
I would rather believe that they are independent stories in themselves, real things that happened to the Macedonians and Albanians in the small country of Macedonia in the Balkans, with people of different faiths and languages. They form a circle of circles because of the same language separation,...

rainstorm is coming
.
A monk who was cultivating in the Qing Dynasty, met a woman who escaped from the desert in men's clothing. He planted a tomato in the quiet years when the bees were buzzing. She hid when she came, and the only food was the small tomatoes he picked late at night. The moment she smiled and watched...

Violence is also dialectical
As long as the world is violent, it doesn't matter whether you live in hell in Yugoslavia or in London pretending to be heaven. As long as there is violence in the world, you cannot be complacent about being outside yourself. Twenty years before the Paris terrorist attacks, "Heavy Rain is Coming"...

It's going to rain, I hope the world in the rain is peaceful
A story doesn't have to be a linear narrative. Sometimes putting a few previous scenes behind can turn an otherwise mediocre story into a completely different one. "Reservoir Dogs" is a successful example of this, and Quentin also put flashbacks. It's a common practice in his films. So is this...

The rainstorm is coming, the mountains and rivers are about to be destroyed
On a cloudless, sunny afternoon in late autumn, I fantasized about the scene when the rainstorm was approaching. It was a summer evening, and the heat made people distracted. When I looked up inadvertently, I saw a large cloud slowly drifting from afar. Only then did I realize that the...

Time is not dead, the circle is not round
Slow but powerful... Time doesn't die, circles don't round. I returned to my homeland with love and reckless abandon, but I still could not escape the fate of hatred. The rainstorm has drenched the earth, and may it wash away the blood red... "There should be no reason to fight here." However, the...

the director said
Just talk about structure.
"Relationships are tens of thousands" is a point of view to interpret history under the concept of big history, and it is also a summary of historical research methods. The three parts of the film are independent, and cause and effect to each other. The beginning of one...

Time does not pass, the circle is not round - the circular narrative structure in "Heavy Rain is Coming"
The ultimate purpose of the circular narrative structure is not to reveal the cycle and fall into the cycle, but to find the gaps in the seemingly inevitable cycle, so as to realize the dissolution of the cycle and break free from the fate of the cycle.
In 1994, Macedonian director Mirzi...
