The background of the kumquat is the Abkhaz war. Ahmed, a Chechen, Nika, a Georgian, was injured in a local Estonian Ivo. "He killed my friend" "Didn't you also kill two of his friends?" War can give people reasons to kill each other. Some people become mercenaries for money, while others feel that...

Other netizens have almost learned about the historical background and so on, and I don't need to go to work again, just talk a little about the character's performance and some uncharacteristic elements. The actors acted very well. The actor who plays Ahmed is a pure Georgian, but in the film, he...

In his discourse on war and permanent peace, Kant said: "War pushes all human nature to the edge of morality. In war, all laws and morals of human beings are invalid. People have become beasts of the weak and the strong. The war is so cruel, But in the end it is inevitable, it has the meaning of...

"Kumquat" (Taiwan's translation of "When the Oranges Harvest") is a high-quality art film that Taiwanese stills Shi Hui took me to the Huashan Cinema in Taipei (famous for specializing in art films). We didn't make a special trip to watch this film at first, but made a choice because of the various...

I don't know much about the Abkhaz war in 1990, which is the setting of this film, not only because I'm a scumbag of war history, but also because I really don't want to see a war after World War II.        The pacing of the film is so slow, yet gripping, that it suddenly takes a nosedive...

Excerpts from other people's film reviews accurately express my point of view. This is the cruelty of war: the "sense of security" Ivo gave to the world pushed him high into loneliness and desolation. And too many foolish people go to the road of no return to avenge their grievances, and no one...

This is an excellent anti-war film.

Let's like the last long shot. Ahmed listened to Nika's favorite music and drove away in a jeep, submerging into the cascading mountains. The camera slowly pulled up, a magnificent mountain and river. How beautiful this land would be if it weren't for the war.

The...

The best war-themed movies I've seen, the rhythm of the film is excellent, and the director always inserts a twist when the plot seems to be calming down, forcing the audience to be in constant tension.

Four main characters: old Yves, who sees through the emptiness of the essence of war, Ahmed who...
