The film "Land of Mine" vividly reflects the versatility of human nature through a little-known historical description after the end of the Second World War. The details and plot of the film are well done. The background environment is a white sandy beach, the sky and the sea in the distance are as blue as the sea, and the scenery is as beautiful as a resort area. It is this clean picture that contrasts the cruelty of the story, the rhythm is relaxed, the characterization is well combined with the point and the surface, and the performance of the young actors is also remarkable. Although the lyrical style is a bit too much, it still gives a heart-wrenching feeling and shocks people's hearts. The angle of story selection, the change of angle in the narrative, the emotional attack all the way, but not strong drama, the reflection on the war, the moral criticism, have reached a very high level. The ending pushes the power of humanization to the extreme.
When the Danish military officers changed from irritable officers to easy-going men, removed all identities, and faced each other in human faces, at that moment, the war really ended. An armistice is not just that the actual artillery fire will no longer be ignited, as long as the artillery fire in people's hearts is still burning, the war is far from over.
"Land of Mine" is calmer than those World War II movies with war scenes, but under those desolate and quiet daily life, there are hidden dangers that may burst at any time. Landmines are not only buried under the sand, but also in the depths of human hearts and human nature.
There is a silent emotional change in the film. At first, Karl fisted and scolded the children. Later, he sat down to chat with the children, joked, and even gave them a day off to play football together on the beach. It looks more like a teacher coming to the beach for a holiday with a group of students. The endless white sandy beach was supposed to be a landscape, but now it means death. In the end, Carl made a choice. He let the few surviving children go and let them cross the border. As a professional soldier, he made a big mistake; but from a human point of view, he used his kind deeds to truly end the war and get rid of a landmine in his heart.
