《My Altay》Adapted from the prose collection of the same name by writer Li Juan.Li Wenxiu (played by Zhou Yili), a Han girl who grew up in Altay, is determined to pursue her literary dream in a big city, but she repeatedly encounters obstacles and is forced to return to her hometown to live with her mother Zhang Fengxia (played by Ma Yili) who runs a canteen.After getting acquainted with the Kazakh boy Batai (played by Yu Shi), Wenxiu gradually discovered the beauty of the place.

The way to enter "My Altay" is the self-narration of a literary youth, but there is no need to worry that this is a boring drama about building a beautiful hometown or a literary ideal about literature. You will soon find out why Li Wenxiu (In a sense, she is the incarnation of the author Li Juan) whose words can be flexible and light because her life here is so flexible and light.The director also captured the free atmosphere that Altay brings to people. The sky and the sky are the basis of the beautiful scenery here, and the strong sense of immersion established by audio and video is the essence.

The group of characters in the play appear one by one, without any sense of confusion, and the main characters are full of personality.Zhang Fengxia is very attractive as soon as she appears. She is not squeamish or pretentious but is confident and proud inside, and leads a fascinating life.She is not a nomad, but she has the chivalrous and heroic spirit of wandering around the world.This sets the tone of the play.She found the successful operation model of the canteen and became involved with the locals. She had a lot of credit but had a clear conscience.You can see the beauty of the fusion of different nationalities in her.​

Li Wenxiu is a beginner who has entered this environment. Her clumsy appearance is indeed the icing on the cake when it comes to causing trouble.Some plot designs and camera language are the talents of female directors. For example, in the first episode, Wenxiu quietly overheard the boss's words and realized what kind of person Jiang Qiming's Little Guangdong was. The extreme contrast between the two scenes before and after was very accurate.The image of this male who rarely appears in the film has been established. It is both cruel and cold humor, and it is also shocking.This prompted Wenxiu to rush back to a safe place.

Batai is the youngest son in the family. If his elder brother were still around, he would be freer.But his brother was gone, and he suddenly became the one who should inherit the family business, and was called back by his father.By the river, a young man drinks a horse and takes a selfie by the water. It captures the most beautiful angle of Yu Shi. I thought about it, maybe only a female director would capture it like this, a young and innocent image in confusion, together with his pony., integrated with nature.All he cared about was his wounded pony, and now he was being asked to resolve such a complicated family conflict.A straight male director would never have thought of filming a boy from such a gentle perspective.​

The charming thing about Batai is not that he shows how handsome he is, but that he has been concentrating on doing his own thing, training horses, riding horses, making medicine, walking horses, archery, hanging horse heads on trees... In fact, most of the time in the first three episodesHe is quite serious and a bit strange.

Douban: Stop the Cloud (Excerpt)

The most obvious feeling when watching My Altay is that the whole work is completely different from what I expected.For example, I would think that Li Wenxiu left the city and returned to Altay as a helpless way to escape from the world, but in fact she was clumsy and somewhat overwhelmed in life. She also disliked the remoteness and distance here, and her mother Zhang Fengxia also wanted toThe transition to Summer Ranch is further and further away from her dream of being a writer in Beijing, a big city, and a cultural capital.For another example, we thought that Altay would bring her some peaceful reveries, but in the eyes of a young girl who didn't understand the language and had little experience in the world, the taciturn hunter had a serious face that could kill, and she couldn't listen.The grandmother who knows how to speak words keeps pestering her over trivial matters, the customers in the canteen often hang up the bill and refuse to pay back the money, and the young woman holding the child may be filled with resentment and embarrassment.Even her encounter with the love that was briefly glimpsed in the original work was not a gentle dream, but an inexplicable, inexplicable, and inhuman strange person or even - a spectacle.Li Wenxiu met Ba Tai who was feeding the horses and drinking water by the river. The two of them looked at each other as if they were looking at strange alien species.The only difference is that as an audience, we are familiar with Li Wenxiu's language and logic, but the sudden appearance of Batai as a villain is simply inexplicable and unreasonable.

Altay's local customs and conflicts with modern civilization are shown through the Batai family.What is still different from what was imagined is that the background of this story line is not clear. Instead, it is full of confrontation and very heavy.Batai is not a very unruly and careless wild boy. On the contrary, his father is a typical tyrant. The most outstanding hunter in the past had a survival logic that was completely different from modern society, and he also had a strong desire for his children.An almost arrogant desire for power.This character has a particularly impressive portrayal, that is, he actually doesn’t understand Mandarin at all, but there is a plot that shows that although the Altay people are serious enough to look a bit fierce, they are very honest. In order to help his dead eldest son pay off his debt,, gave his camel to Zhang Fengxia.Zhang Fengxia spoke Mandarin to him. He was not confused at all, did not ask, and did not ask Batai to translate. Instead, he nodded and turned around and left - he didn't care what you were talking about, he only cared that he had finished what he said.When getting along with such a family, Batai often has to mediate conflicts between different people. He seems to have no temper, and always thinks about simple things. He has the empathy that his father and brother seem to be lacking, and he is as beautiful as a human being.Symbols that exist in the world of fairy tales or literature.And thinking about the fact that he had to directly deal with a series of conflicts with his father due to the death of his brother, he felt that such conflicts were particularly sad.

Another important character related to their family is Token, the wife of Batai’s dead brother. Because there is not much information about it, I won’t go into details here to avoid spoilers.But in this role, we can clearly see the extremely delicate and sharp side of the female director, and I also like her plot very much.

In fact, if we want to talk about the main plot, the first three episodes tell the story of these things in Wenxiu's eyes - wonders - becoming human beings one by one.Because of the language barrier, the logic of people's behavior is also vague in Li Wenxiu's eyes.But due to an opportunity, the two sides started to talk and communicate, and they soon discovered that the old man with a serious face who wanted to kill was very particular about credibility, it turned out that the strange, tall and strange man had a handsome face and a gentle smile, and it turned out that the old woman who was constantly entangledJust more real and sincere.With these scenes of people talking to each other, you will feel that as an audience, you have been given the courage to face the various conflicts that the people in the play are about to face.

Many creators will mention healing when talking about this play.I think it is very similar to Zhang Fengxia’s life philosophy.Before all doctrines and ideas, people must first allow themselves to live and allow others to live.

Douban: 88,000 people were defrauded of online dating

Just like Director Teng Congcong said in the interview - I think it is (mis)biased to think that being rational, cold, selfish, and loving only oneself is a kind of strength.I think women's passion, romance, tolerance, empathy, compassion... are also powerful.——

The female power in this play is not created by cleverly approaching the stereotype of strong men, but by showing the unique color of women.The real female perspective is to restore the real women from the female perspective. They live in a completely different social environment from men. They will be confused and painful, but they never lack the courage to start over.Token, who is under the heavy burden of life, will happily go to the dance no matter how difficult it is; the Mongolian grandmother who is reasonable, gentle and kind, who wants to live a bright life in a bumpy life; who is far away and even close to the primitiveIn the nomadic tribe, Zhang Daxia, who supports the whole family; Wenxiu, who never gives up her dream of literature no matter how difficult the road ahead... They love, live, and get hurt in this land, and...Feel the world in your own way.
