Secret love

Malik’s works are as always sleepy

But I mean the kind

Fully immersive emotions

Look at him catching the pulse of the wind

Look at him recording the breath of the mountains

And that love

The scent remaining from the tips of her hair

The tears in his eyes

He stands behind us like a god

Talking silently

Talking about impermanence

Talking about Xu Shaohua and Baishou

Or sad life and death

Bye now

my sweetheart

I want to repeat the sentence I said in the short comment

"You stayed forever

Dear Franz

You are the temperature difference between day and night

You are the change of the four seasons

You are the gentlest echo in that valley"

    1 Three hours show the passive political resistance of a person (and a family): say a conscientious no to the regime, how to say it, how far it can be said, where is the redemption (only the leap of faith); 2 Church painter: "For many years, I have painted Jesus who reassures people, Jesus with a halo, maybe one day I will paint a real Jesus"; 3 Can the eternal mountain and the eternal four seasons bring morality in the soul?

    The increasingly religious Malik returns to the individual in "The Hidden Life", seeking to reveal the hearts of the characters and create gospel for the characters hidden by history. This is the same as his previous cosmic prehistoric works, because the key to religion is to classify the world into the realm of the mind. The theme of the film is a common theme theme in Germany, but Malik's entry point is not morality. Behind his protagonist's extreme pacifism is a kind of stubbornness that he does not know why. God is the most natural existence in this film. The protagonist embarks on the road of martyrdom without suffering, and the close-up of Marek's elevation, the backlight and the murmur-style narration combined with the plain plot seems to be saying, this is the Believers naturally understand my religious experience. And just like that, my drama queen was shut out of his experience.
