a dream

A peculiar style of painting, a realistic and magical Central Asian story. A seventeen-year-old flower girl with an actor's dream, her experience can be completely described as "ill-fated". She lost her mother when she was young and became pregnant unexpectedly after being seduced by a stranger on a full moon night. She couldn't find who "Moon Dad" was. Wanting to get rid of the child, he looked like a doctor in Jianghu Langzhong, but died in a sudden armed fight before the operation. She gave birth and was scolded by the villagers, but fortunately there was a good man who loved her and was willing to marry her. The two love each other, and the good times don't last long. A cow fell from the sky at the wedding moment, killing the father and the groom who did not have time for the bridal chamber, and the girl became an orphan and a widowed mother overnight. What's even more suspense is that the initiator of this "Flying Hengniu", an irresponsible and dissolute pilot, turned out to be the object of that night's romance, the biological father of the child in his belly. Angrily and anxious, she couldn't help drawing a gun to shoot at him. The pilot was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground and fell unconscious, and he has since become a vegetative state. The calamity is really unresolved, and under the siege of the villagers, the desperate girl, pregnant with the child who is about to be born, flew by the house. From the content point of view, it is a complete tragedy. As soon as the girl was born, her mother died of dystocia, and she followed a brother who was crazy because of the trauma of the war. It was common for her to be bullied and ridiculed by the villagers. This is a village full of diaspora soldiers, bandit road fighters, and long-tongued women, a ignorant and closed world. The family of three earns a living by selling rabbits, making life difficult and struggling. But such an unfortunate story is unexpectedly absurd and witty in the director's lens. The beautiful heroine Chu Pan. Chulpan Khamatova, who played the hero's Soviet girlfriend in "Goodbye Lenin," performed equally well here. Her naughty shrug, graceful figure, light and graceful dance, lovely expression, and big beautiful eyes are the most eye-catching scenery in the movie. In a difficult situation, her strength and intelligence supported the family and kept the family full of joy. She was really a kind and good girl. Finding a "moon dad" has become a "rule" that girls must fulfill. Single mothers without husbands are cast aside and shunned by everyone in the village, stoned, and women become men's dependencies. A woman without a man seems to have no right to survive. As my mad brother said, there is evil everywhere, and I wish there were planes to bomb this land. The movie has a magical flavor everywhere. In that chaotic environment, people can see stray bullets, natural disasters and man-made disasters everywhere, and they may die at any time, and their lives are precarious. A lot of absurdity is added together, giving the audience a "surreal" experience. The illusion that "this is all non-existent" makes people feel relaxed in the face of disasters. Too absurd plots naturally lead to laughs. However, the director quietly stuffed a lot of real cruelty in the world of magic. At the end of the movie, a "miracle" arrangement was given. The girl's house rose slowly under the power of the fan and slowly disappeared. In reality, what would happen to such an unmarried but pregnant woman in a conservative religious country is obvious. "My mother flew me away, away from these sad and closed hearts, away from the sins of people." The child in the fantasy is about to be born, reflecting the imminent death of the girl in reality. The director wrapped the tears with comedy, expressed the accusation with miracles, and brought freedom to the suffering girl with whimsy. You can choose to laugh because it brings joy; you can choose to cry because it is only a dream after all.

    The director can be called Kusturika of Tajikistan. The madness and absurdity make the real tragedy cast a layer of black comedy. When you see the end, the soaring roof is full of magical colors, but you can't help but feel sad. I would rather that the child's father is not found, and his appearance brings destruction to a family. Such a man is undoubtedly the devil.
