The spirit of fearless optimism-"A Beautiful Day"
Today we will talk about the Spanish film "A Beautiful Day".
The film title is A Perfect Day (2015), also known as Extreme Thirsty Rescue (Taiwan).
The story takes place in the Balkan Peninsula. A group of international volunteers from the United Nations made various efforts to clean up and disinfect a water source. They encountered numerous difficulties. A seemingly uncomplicated incident became complicated and troublesome in a troubled area.
The Balkans is one of the three major peninsulas in southern Europe, bordering the Adriatic Sea to the west, the Black Sea to the east, and the Ionian Sea and the Aegean Sea to the south. The small peninsula contains Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Greece and many other countries and nations.
The complex human environment and important geographical location have created the current situation of the peninsula. Countries and nations, large and small, are crowded together, and many thorny issues such as ethnic conflicts, religious conflicts, cultural differences, border disputes, and political differences will follow.
Many things that we seem to be irrelevant are important and sensitive issues in this complex war-torn region.
"A Good Day" talks about something that seems too small.
The Balkan Peninsula was once a unified country and once flourished and prospered, but after all, it lacked a long-term stable regime. The superior geographical location caused the surrounding powers to look at this place with endless wars and disputes. In the end, this small piece of land was split into many small countries.
The chaos brought about by the war hurts the people living here, but their loose organization alone cannot change their inherent destiny, and can only become a profit-making tool for the powerful.
"A Beautiful Day" focuses on a well in a small village.
A corpse suddenly appeared in the well. If it is not handled in time, the well will be contaminated, and the nearby villagers will have no water to use, making life even worse.
A group of UN international volunteers discovered this situation and immediately proceeded to deal with it. The leak in the house happened to rain overnight. When they salvaged the corpse, the necessary tools broke, the rope used to tow the corpse broke, and they had to find a new rope.
The film began, just to find a suitable rope, the group of international volunteers surrounded the surrounding area for a whole day. After finding the sun setting from the bright sky, and staying in the wilderness and eating and sleeping in the wild, continue to search.
War is to destroy all the traces of civilized society. Any civilized society's rules are subverted here and no longer work well.
We are not living in a peaceful age, but in a peaceful country. In those places that have been suffering from war, there are many things that we can't think of. Just like this little thing in "A Good Day", isn't it just a rope? Just take two steps and go out to the supermarket to get a bundle. If we think this way, we will make the mistake of not eating meat. In a peaceful environment, we often overlook the preciousness of peace and the conveniences that peace brings.
People living in areas such as the Balkans suffer from various problems all year round. When we discussed the heating in the north and the big cockroaches in the south, they considered what to eat for the next meal and whether they would be killed by landmines when they went out.
There are mainly four foreigners and a local translator in this group of international volunteers.
Benicio del Toro, a well-known handsome personality, plays Mambru and is the leader of this squad. He has rich experience, calm and calm in the face of things, and is responsible for overall work promotion and external coordination.
What they have in common is the ability to maintain a kind heart in troubled times. Will not give up principles for the sake of petty profit, and will not give up responsibilities halfway through.
Tim Robbins, who ran out of Shawshank prison, played the role of Big B. He was big and thick and looked fierce. In fact, he was a very festive person. He ran the train with his mouth full and adjusted the team atmosphere.
Mélanie Thierry plays Sophie. She is a new member of the team who just joined the team. With a fledgling spirit, she wants to do something practical. Her growth process is the most obvious growth clue in the film.
Bang girl Olga Kurylenko plays Katya as a conflict assessment analyst. Her main job is to assess whether this team still needs to exist. The appearance of Katya brings a sense of crisis to the team and also represents the hope within the system.
There is also a local translator and a little boy met on the road. These people make up the whole film.
"A Beautiful Day" led the audience through a day in war-torn areas.
Mambulu and others had fun in hardship, did not choose to give up in the face of difficulties, but bravely faced them. Being brave is by no means reckless. If you encounter a problem, you must first find a way to solve the problem and avoid unnecessary trouble. In a chaotic area with sharp contradictions, every little thing seems to be very responsible, and the situation is constant during the work, which is unimaginable for people in a peaceful area.
Carrying out international rescue is originally a thankless thing. If there is no optimism, most people really can't stand it. It is also the fearless optimism of Mambru and others that the film can develop in a relaxed direction.
The haze of war is full of crises,
Have fun in a good day.
