Sometimes truth is more imaginative than fiction

Although it was stated at the beginning of the film that the film was based on a true story, I gradually forgot it during the viewing process. It was not until the historical photos released at the end of the film that I suddenly realized that this happened in history. event.

If someone told me this story, I would have thought it was from some imaginative and symbolic fiction. An engineer first builds an island independent of all nations and laws, followed by citizens, flags, creating his own language, proclaiming independence to the world... Maybe sometimes the real world is more imaginative than fictional stories force.

One of them impressed me the most. The male protagonist talked to the Italian minister talking about freedom. The male protagonist said that the other party was afraid of absolute freedom. What he was afraid of was not what people have done, but what people might or will do. thing. In the end, Rose Island died with a puff of smoke, and I thought to myself - is this the end? But what if it doesn't end like this? Can this "Utopia" carry the evil of mankind? Maybe everyone has a seed of "absolute freedom" symbolized by "Rose Island" deep in their hearts, but the real world seems to lack the substance for this seed to germinate.

In the end, it seems that a line from Brave New World is quite relevant—“I don’t need comfort. I need God, I need poetry, I need real danger, I need freedom, I need good, I need sin.”

    How can a person build an island on the high seas for the girl he likes for freedom and fight against society and the government so boring by the Italians? It's obviously a very dramatic and playful story! Building a car without a license and being taken away by the cops seems like such a silly idea, a friend taking money from a safe and forcibly planting it on someone else such a witty look, an investigator who accidentally got drunk on an island like this The humour looks boring, and I can't even feel moved against the cannonball hand in hand. It's because I don't know much about Italian culture. The male protagonist is a bit like Eddie Peng and the female protagonist is a bit like Qi Wei.

    There used to be a country called Rose Island. This is a movie about the beginning and end of this country.
