destiny and choice, choice and destiny

In my opinion, Kings and Queens focuses on the simple proposition of how people make choices when faced with the various possibilities in life. People with different personalities make different choices in different moods and situations. Different choices guide different paths, but ultimately lead different people to a similar inevitable "abyss". This is the sense of helplessness and powerlessness that fate brings.
Nora is introverted, timid, used to being loved, and desperately wants to get out of the shadows in her life. However, things backfired, and a series of life changes hit her again and again, forcing her. Yes, on the surface, she solved it well: her father's help saved her from the police investigation, the city government finally recognized the identity of the child, a considerate wealthy businessman took care of her family affairs, and one thing after another. past. But the depression and frustration were buried in Nora's heart along with these secrets. She burned the denunciation that her father had written about her little sister nervously, what was the use, she couldn't change anything.
Isamel is different. He is indeed selfish, egoistic, and pretentious, but he finally learned to face life and face himself. He rushed to the young Arielle and confessed to her; he confessed his identity to Elias, and also taught little Elias how to face it and how to be relieved. You could say that Isamel was saved by his optimistic father, you could also say that the psychiatrist's conversation with him really made a difference, life is just like that sometimes, he's making fun of people, and a viola player who is officially "mentally ill" out of the abyss of self.
One more thing to say, as far as the movie itself is concerned, "author's movie" is really not a movie viewing mode that can be quickly adapted. Baidu Encyclopedia said: Use unconventional shaking shots, "jump" and "jump cut" that break the unity of time and space, and use some people-targeted follow-up and rush shots with portable cameras, combining "subjective realism" with "Objective realism". I really got a taste of it ;)
