The opening is a surprise. Familiar eyes and faces, actor Leif Fiennes. Five or six shots in a row in a row fully explain what a movie is - the same content, such as he is riding a bicycle on a field road, the text is only one sentence, but the performance of the movie shots can be varied and stand out. The editing is also crisp, the soundtrack is also in place, and the audiovisual enjoyment. Because I didn't read the introduction beforehand, I had a sense of surprise and a little excitement that followed.

The next words, "Otherwise, the whole country is preparing for war, why do you still have the leisure to dig soil", the point is pointed.
this is a true story.
At 1:40, the son made the bed pillows, and the words he said to his mother on the starry night on the bow further sublimated the plot. Archaeology, life, death, existence, courage, love.
Brown's name was not mentioned until in recent years, until it was acknowledged. Today it lives forever in the British Museum with Elise's name. This film is an archaeology of this archaeological past. dig, doubly.
