The whole theater is crying

Different from the cruel fairy tale with a beautiful title, the director uses seasons to suggest emotional tones, and shows the complex symbiosis of weakness and goodness through the eyes of women. The tenacious and intelligent volunteer doctor, the pure and flawless nun, and the obscene and powerful soldier, the three identities interpret the contradictions of that special era; and when the dean abandoned the baby in the mist and white snow, I felt the struggle between divinity and humanity. Doubt, tears, and death are all reasonable but helpless to grieve.
The cool and unpretentious shots are like oil paintings. The film uses a lot of push rails to deeply depict the gaze of the facial micro-expressions; basically no large scenes are used for shooting, but with the pure vocal singing of the Book of Songs or the low-pitched piano, it brings A sad, heavy tension.

    I can't tell which is more evil than the Soviet Red Army who raped women and the dean who abandoned the baby in the snow. What you've been believing and holding on to your whole life could be wrong.

    The female doctor was great and saved those nuns. He also led them out of the haze, but the dean was really confusing. The doctor couldn't look directly at their bodies during treatment, and the children were thrown into the snow and thrown away. And other nuns lied that they were given away for adoption. It's sad to see thieves

The Innocents quotes

  • Maria: You know, faith. At first, We're like a child that his father holds by his hand, who feels safe. A moment comes and I think he always comes where the father will let you go. We're lost, alone in the dark. We call, nobody answers. We're getting ready, we're surprised. We're hit in the heart. That's the cross. Behind all joy, there is the cross.

  • Maria: Dear Mathilde, the dark clouds have been hunted. We have here the sun in the sky. And you are in our hearts. Other wars may come. Other dangers threaten us, it will soon be difficult to write to us. But whatever our fate is, I feel ready to face it. I know, even if it makes you laugh, God sent you. Let him accompany you through the trials and that joy never misses you. Yours, Maria.
