this is a film that introduces the situation of gleaning in the past, and introduces gleaning to the theme of diligence and thrift. Especially in modern society, the operation of machinery makes the waste phenomenon more serious. The film brings people not only sensory enjoyment, but also brings people's thinking on the social theme of "poverty, waste, and frugality".
Just like a person in the film said, those things (let's just say garbage) are alive, have a past, and have a story. We should not think that they are useless and discard them. On the contrary, we should give them a second time. life.
We have become accustomed to abandoning. No one has ever thought about how to "make the best use of everything."
One of them said that he had eaten food for about 15 years, and he has never got sick because of it. He said that our requirements for food are too high now!
Yes, in order to obtain more profits, for the so-called modern civilized and healthy life, we have all become the victims of manufacturers, and we have all fallen into the trap of modern consumer life. We are swayed by them and lack the ability to think. We are led by the nose by their ad words, and we don't have the time and ability to calmly and seriously think about our way of life.
Everyone wants to live a happy life, but what are the specific criteria for a happy life? Is it the glamorous and beautiful life advertised in the advertisement or the real life?
Three rooms and one hall or ten suits?
When I say that we bought their products, it does not mean that we can buy the happy life they advertised. It can be seen that a happy life is not bought.
In addition, I also think that collecting is also a kind of pathological psychology: collecting because of poverty. Take a look, a few books are enough for people who don’t like reading; a few discs are enough for people who don’t like music;
and only those mentally poor people who work hard to collect will never feel that it is not enough. From the collection of clothes, to the collection of discs, to the collection of my books. It's just that different collections represent different poverty, or thoughts, or knowledge, or materials. The collected things are different, and the thoughts and realms are different.
