Why can't we make comedy about disabled people in China?

I am a parent of a mentally handicapped person. I am curious if I can see the ecological environment of mentally handicapped people in Spain through the film. The answer is "enviable". Of course, the movie did not make Spain a utopia, and these ugly big children were rejected and discriminated against. So what am I envious of?

First, they all have a job. There are those who take care of animals, grow flowers and plants, wash pots in the back kitchen of restaurants, make handicrafts, and mechanics who disassemble and assemble engines. Therefore, unlike the mentally handicapped adults in China, most of them have nowhere to go and can only "squat at home".

Secondly, in addition to work, they also have stable leisure time, such as forming a rock band. And basketball is not just for fun, but also can participate in the national league (mentally disabled groups), and learn skills with teams in various cities. I deliberately Baidu, Spain has played this league every year since 1999. The scenes in the movie where able-bodied people pretend to be people with disabilities are real. After the Sydney Paralympics fraud case in 2000, there was only wheelchair basketball in the Paralympic Games, and projects that did not export international achievements would probably not be taken seriously in my country, but It is what this group needs.

Third, in Europe, the United States and Hong Kong, there are provisions for negligent violations to be punished for community service. For example, the national team coach in the film was fined to serve the mentally handicapped basketball team because of drunk driving. Instead of letting them stay in the detention center for 15 days, which is of no benefit to the society, it is better to send them to the community to serve the society and do something practical, which is worth learning from. I hope those who have related systems can pay attention.

The social environment of the two places is so different, so it is also the theme of mentally handicapped groups. The domestic film is the bitter "Ocean Paradise", but Spain can film the funny, touching, and thought-provoking comedy "Basketball". champion".

Last but not least is the writer's intentions. Ordinary audiences may laugh at the jokes in the play, but those who have really come into contact with them will understand that it is based on the truth, and I also laugh, a little helpless. It is a joke to watch it once in a lifetime, and it is staged countless times every day. In fact, no one can laugh at it. Two lines of tears on the wandering earth, how many people can still laugh when they hear it for the third time?

Juan Horse has hydrophobia, and the coach took advantage of Juan Horse's love for animals to "trick" him into desensitizing him under the shower. This operation looks funny, but it is actually a common behavioral intervention. Do you need professional special education knowledge to teach special children? It needs a little bit, but what is more needed is a willing heart. There is always a way, but there is no, because there is not enough thinking.

It is my sincere hope that the children I know grow up to have the lives the protagonists have: simple, fulfilling, and happy. They also have the right and the ability to be happy. I also hope that more people can see this film and truly understand this film.

Last but not least, thank you to #Elephant Dianying# and #FusionChina# for providing this advance screening opportunity and free tickets

    Very moving and very happy, it is really a rare experience in the theater! All hahahaha. The movie is still a genre movie, there are not too many surprises, the main victory is the attitude, the attitude towards this kind of people is very peaceful and loving. The attitude towards comedy is also relatively peaceful. Although there are many vulgar stalks and old stalks, they are used freely and full of comedy spirit. Not hard. I know the routine, so there is also a little bit of anti-routine, which makes people a little surprised.

    The small male protagonist's performance is quite attractive. If it is a documentary, it will be very shocking. If it is a feature film, it will be bad! There is a big problem with storytelling. The problems that need to be solved in the first three scenes have been delayed until 40 minutes, and the next hour is more and more interesting. In the final scene, I pulled it back and forth 5 times, but I couldn't find the opportunity to change, even if it was a scene with an action and an eye! What should be said and what should not be told, what needs to be enlarged and what needs to be abbreviated, what is the glorious moment of human nature, the changes of characters should also be layer by layer, ... It's a pity that it is a top story.
