Wild horses = a group of beautiful girls who are looking for freedom

Yesterday, I watched "Wild Horse" at the Chengdu French Film Festival. Among them, there are three things that I felt most deeply about the movie: 1. (Brothers) and sisters are gifts of life 2. Wild horses (Larei) 3. The contradiction between religion and the world in
a village in Turkey The sea and the sky next to it are very blue, and the five sisters with long hair are all beautiful girls, so the director's close-up shots of the ocean and the five sisters are very beautiful, why? Because freedom and youth are the most beautiful things. The girls without turbans play freely with their companions in the sea water. For the innocence and beauty of these youth, even the melting blue can only serve as a foil.
Climbing through the window in the middle of the night to sneak out for a date, in the afternoon to watch the "women-only" European Cup, and during the day to learn to drive... Except for the act of climbing the window, the things they sneak out to do are actually very ordinary, but they are all very common. It is because of the terrible "chastity" that turned their original home into a prison-like "bride processing factory". No school, no friends, they just need to learn how to cook, make quilts, and what's taught in the "Encyclopedia of Sex" that only the youngest Larry has ever flipped through.
The protagonist of the whole film is La Lei, the youngest sister. Because she is the youngest, she is straightforward and has distinct likes and dislikes, and is often the one who can provoke conflict. Getting along with her sisters, their slender figure and their feminine charm, she envied and yearned for, but seeing the marriage of a hammer sale made her eldest sister aggrieved and miserable (except the second sister), the third sister the day before the wedding indulged And the final suicide, she has witnessed the most, and also discovered the dirty and dirty things of the male owner of the family. Once her fourth sister gets married, it will be her next turn, so this wild horse finally takes her fourth sister. After fleeing this place, he began to "run" desperately, toward Istanbul, which represents freedom and hope.
The second sister who insists on love among the five sisters is a wild horse, otherwise how could she marry the person she likes? The third sister is also a wild horse, she silently used her life to fight against it. Lale naturally loves football games, steals money from her grandmother, learns to drive, steals the keys to the cabinets that make them "degenerate", and runs around the house wearing her sisters' underwear. Three wild horses out of five can make the entire group of horses wild and have a strong force to resist together.
But when one by one is taken away, the mighty herd is gradually crushed, and it ends up being a personal battle.

The decadent concept of "chastity" and marriage is terrible for young lives, because they are hypocritical professional killers, and these concepts are also afraid of these young lives, because they will eventually be led by wild horses galloping past horses The group stepped into powder.

    The problem is very important, the director is very lame, and the whole film is full of false and straightforward "why not eat minced meat". The girl’s pursuit of liberation against the inhuman system is not just “sexual liberation.” It is laziness to clown characters without touching the fundamental system. The hope of saving girls from a small village in the big city of Istanbul is too wishful thinking. It feels like a movie made by a Turkish high-end Western-style director for the international market.

    In that beautiful seaside town, the story of "Wild Horse" with five girls resisting imprisonment in the name of religion and pursuing freedom has not yet unfolded. It is at the time of the beauty of youth and the closure of old vulgarity and ugliness. In that tragic rendering, It brings a great shock to people both visually and in terms of plot. The hedge will never be able to trap the wild horses, and the pace towards freedom will never stop.
