not a good day at all

During the Silk Road Film Festival these days, there are many movies scattered in various cinemas in Xi'an. Fortunately, there is one very close to me. The first film I watched today was "A Beautiful Day" filmed in Spain. Of course, the name is reversed, and this day was not beautiful at all. Somewhere in the Balkans, which was caught in a war, several NGO staff were faced with a problem that seemed to us to be easy to solve on a daily basis, but could not be solved due to the interference of local armed forces, peacekeeping forces, and various forces and problems. Although the music is basically light and lively or slightly rocky, although there is a chatter in it, and although there are many scenes that seem to be humorous and hilarious, the more I go on, the more sad and even heartbroken. When war and refugee issues only appear on the international news, or only in groups, we become more and more indifferent, because we are far away and have nothing to do with ourselves, but when we see refugees appearing as individuals in this way, what is in them? The story is heartbreaking. They also had a beautiful home. The bombed village can still be seen how beautiful it was in the past. The child's room in the home is still as it was. The child's parents are so young and beautiful in the photo, but because of ethnic disputes, the next door Neighbors can throw bombs at this house, just because their identities are suddenly different, they have to draw a clear line. I really don't understand this violent religious war. People in one country fight each other, and foreign peacekeepers need to intervene, but in many issues, they can only watch it happen and absolutely cannot intervene. He clearly knows how to obtain clean water, but he can only watch the people who may pollute the water sell water at a high price to make black money for the civilians, but he cannot interfere. When driving and encountering animal carcasses on the road, don’t dare to drive over, because the carcasses were dragged over, bombs may have been bought in the carcasses or left and right, and you can only guess which is safe by luck. Children are robbing things, but adults don't dare to help rashly, because the domineering child will suddenly pull out a gun. Such a life is really desperate, but no matter how desperate, they still try to live. Fortunately, in the end, the rain solved the problem that had never been solved, which made people feel a little more comfortable. But this is just a movie, real life is more sad than acting.

    The dark humor in the war, the bloody murder caused by a rope is really absurd. Those who can survive in the harsh environment of the Balkans must be vicious dogs, but reflecting on this is all caused by war, and cruelty and ruthlessness are all for survival. When the rescuers had given up salvaging the bodies, the heavy rain turned things around. It is ironic. Maybe this is the legend that people are not as good as the sky.

    I don't think it's humorous, the movie is too loose and not good
