入围2020年威尼斯电影节影评人周单元 A blue screen informs that war has begun. What will be needed? Collect the men, find guns, or maybe someone will give them. We need a location, a country where the war would take place. No problem, the Colonel is a real pro, he has caused wars to order, or on orders, on multiple occasions in different countries. Now his followers have grown up and caused a war in his country. He doesn’t want to, but he has to fight. He is old and tired of war. He wants to be at the table with a steaming pot of tasty mutton ribs and stare at an innocent TV screen with the news on, and the dressed-up news reporter announces that the war has begun.
反战主题很明显，与现代社会虚实结合
纪实风冷冽战争片，作者的风格性比较突出，像首尾的呼应和两场吃饭戏的处理都不错，战争与和平世界边缘就是这样逐渐被消弭，每个人都无法置身事外
随着有适当摇晃感的手持长镜头体验了一场无法预测的架空战争。隐喻细节巧妙，从圣经到Pokemon，自然而神秘，配乐恰到好处。
