剧情介绍
The elderly caretaker of a remote morgue possesses an impeccable memory for everything but names. He passes his days showing corpses to those searching for their lost ones and tending to his beloved plants. When protest in a nearby city breaks out and the militia covertly raid the morgue to hide civilian casualties, he discovers the body of an unknown young woman. Evoking memories of personal loss, he embarks on a magical odyssey to give her a proper burial with the help of a mystic gravedigger who collects stories of the dead, an old woman searching for her long-lost daughter, and a hearse driver tormented by his past.
精彩短评
·#Venice2017# 本届第二个五星!伊朗导演的处女作竟然是智利题材,有着极其精到的对政治话语的把握,遗忘、记忆、历史与现实的主题在少言寡语的守墓人身上完美统一。处理极为节制而且形式感真是到位(超现实的段落多了点)。导演电影语言意识极强,前途绝对不可限量,好好发展成就不会亚于萨金塞夫!
·沙漠盛开的手掌,天空遨游的蓝鲸,仿佛看到了年轻时的佐杜洛夫斯基,魔幻现实主义后继有人。那些消失在独裁年代的人并没有被遗忘......
·有着非常好的意象拼接,节奏把握的很稳重,就是没太看懂背景。很欣赏超现实部分,我觉得表达中多一些这些超现实的部分可以解除一些比较沉闷的无聊。总之是部好电影,导演应该很年轻,很有空间。
