《Nowhere》 Summ

The film is set in a country where supplies are extremely scarce. In order to reduce the distribution of supplies, the government implemented a policy of massacre of women and children (all the elderly have been killed), causing a large number of women and children to flee illegally.In the process of escaping, the protagonist encountered separation from his husband and a massacre. He narrowly escaped and was swept into the sea by a storm in a closed container.

The whole story is about how a woman who is about to give birth hides in a container floating in the sea and faces the stages of childbirth, breastfeeding, survival, and missing her husband.

The creators of the movie 《nowhere》 are very diligent, but they have no choice but to put together an original script, trying to stitch together a dystopia and a disaster sea survival adventure movie, but no matter how you look at the stitching, you won't feel touched - you can all be attracted to the protagonist.The country I went to applauded “Ireland”, but why can’t we use smuggled refugees to refer to the small bourgeoisie who fled the country because of fear of massacre? It’s not like there are no cases of refugees dying tragically in containers.

Apart from the 《nowhere》 starting setting, the highlight of the scene is the pregnant woman surviving in a container in the sea, which is quite creative, especially the scenes of giving birth, breastfeeding, and eating the placenta in the sea.But these are just formal changes without changing the medicine. They are neither comparable to "Cast Away" in terms of conception, nor can they surpass it in terms of structure.

This starts with the sense of immersion in the film's story, clearly achieving experiential and emotional resonance.Of course, it is precisely because of the creator's eccentric approach that the plot of -nowhere- is a bit far away. Even though it is a bit far away, the screenwriter has almost tailor-made this disaster for the heroine.Sealed lunch boxes can be used to collect water, spirits can be used to disinfect and keep warm, and headphone cables can be used to make nets.When electronic products and plastics appeared in the camera for a moment, I thought that the products of the technological industrial era were not worth mentioning in the face of wilderness survival. Unexpectedly, these have become the perfect application for the heroine, especially the one that is incompatible with it no matter what.Impact drill, it still has a diamond head.However, the cell phone signal never disappears and is always available.All of this seems to be accurately and thoughtfully prepared for the heroine.

Besides, the baby who was born in seawater and survived in a container clearly had a trace of wishful thinking.But I still think this setting is a bold and novel idea.

According to observation, 《nowhere》 really wants to imitate《Cast Away》, and it almost achieves neat correspondence, with families separated by fate, the extreme environment of industrial goods being used for other purposes, and the one who is not presentAnd the presence of the baby is nothing more than Volleyball Wilson!

Even so, I am still willing to give the movie 《nowhere》 four stars, because it is really necessary to reproduce or recreate 《 Cast Away 》.In addition, the film itself is quite complete, ambitious and searching, and then there are the real water scenes. I thought that filming in containers could avoid a lot of expensive seawater special effects, but later there was an endless scene that looked like real shots.ocean.It is worth mentioning that the scene where the whale wakes up the baby and cries is the most tender scene in my opinion, but it is a pity that it was brushed aside.

In short, in the current film market where good and bad are mixed and generally weak, there is such a Spanish work that can still respond to our expectations for good movies.
