The Land Of Honey: When The Sunset Blur Eden

Poetry Miao / Wen

One of the most important two things in her daily life is the care of her half aged blind mother and her nest. From the first stage, he was always wearing a yellow coat and a flower scarf. I do not know whether it is intentionally or not. This simple beekeeper adorned himself with the colors and nourishment of bees, and showed his affinity and love for them all the time. Until one day, the nomadic Sam family brought their trailers and cattle to the honey fields of hates, becoming her temporary neighbors. The more detailed and tortuous plot in the documentary "land of honey" has gradually spread since then.

The good ha Ti Zi accepted the family that broke the peace. She played and played with the children, and taught Hossain, as the leader of the family, the skills and ideas of beekeeping. Unfortunately, unselfishness and unrequited return are most easily betrayed, and the encounter of nature and ha titi confirms this. After a short period of harmony, there is a series of disputes. After a businessman came to Hossain for a lot of honey, the man's profit seeking and irritable temper appeared. He quickly violated the principle of halti's persistence, that is, only half the bees were left, and half the bees.

The two directors of the film revealed that they had only planned to make a short film to record the daily state and the ecological environment of her surroundings, but the next door family had affected the life of HA Ti and changed the content of the movie. "The land of honey" is like a slow motion story, full of fine warmth, and often there are differences and contradictions.

The land of honey can be regarded as the most easily ignored Documentary Film Festival and awards ceremony last year. Since the beginning of the film awards of the world film unit at the Sundance Film Festival in early, the "Honey land" has started a successful film festival cruise, and has won the best international film and best record nominations at the last stop of the award season, the latest Oscar awards. This beekeepers story on the remote lands of North Macedonia actually concentrates and reflects the common situation of all mankind at the moment. Human consumption and demand are deeply affected by every inch of the natural world. No small world that is carefully nurturing can escape the economic system controlled by capital.

Global warming, environmental pollution, over exploitation of natural resources, and destruction of ecological diversity, etc., are all highlighted by the environmental problems experienced by the earth people under the comparison between the families of Sam and ha. We saw several times that he was sharing his food and fruits with his mother in his cabin. And the film was given to the next door of the family for dinner. It was a businessman who brought them a lot of food. After being careless, his father Hossain could not refuse his honey trade.

He climbed cautiously onto the big tree beside the river, and sang softly when he looked at the beehive. Then, under the instigation of merchants, Hossain cut the branches with electric saw and destroyed the hiding place of bees. The truck of Sam's family opened up a trail of dust on hiking's HiTi. Her mother, who lived with her mother, always took care of her beehives with her hands. She was lonely, sincere, slow and happy. She failed to form her own family, which meant that her apiculture was unsuccessor, but she never grabbed the bee's hard work. After Hossain brought machines and children, the steady state of her care was quickly broken, the honeycomb was packed into many iron boxes, and the children were regarded as labor force, which fulfilled the greed and selfishness of their fathers.

In this field of honey, bees also have their destinies. There are not many close-up shots of bees, but they are quite meaningful. Ha ti will use a green leaf to gently stir up the bees that fall into the water, while the neighbor's woman just turns the machine mechanically, and the bee is caught in the falling honey, and then vanishes. The relationship between bees is also a reflection of the relationship between human beings. In another scene, two bees are fighting each other until one side can no longer take off. Soon after, we learned that the bees seemed to belong to different groups.

Besides bees, there are all kinds of animals living in the vicinity of HA ti. The wolves pass through the night with the howl. The tortoise wants to leave the dry pond, and the babies of the herd are just born. They are faced with disease and death. With the sharp capture of camera and the wonderful combination of later editing, the tortoise and the herd become a metaphor, and cats and dogs are endowed with personality, providing richer details for the narration of the film.

At the end of the movie, the neighbor left and her mother died. Hester took her dog to the cliff again to pick up the honey that had been plentiful under her protection. One man and one dog sat under the setting sun, sharing fresh food. Ha Ti Zi let us believe that this beauty can be sustained, and the sun in the mountains is brutally blurred their figure.
