1905 Movie Network Special Article May 12, 2008 14:28:04, this is a moment that all Chinese can not forget. At this moment, a magnitude 8.0 earthquake occurred in Wenchuan, Sichuan, killing nearly 70,000 people, 18,000 missing, and injuring more than 370,000 people.
Mountains and rivers soothe the wounds, and time soothes the wounds. Today is the twelfth anniversary of the Wenchuan earthquake, and Wenchuan is moving towards rebirth and revitalization. Today is also International Nurses Day, and disaster and protection are intertwined, especially in the current global epidemic, inspiring us to continue to feel the meaning of life.
Many films recreate the devastated scenes of different disasters, feel the painful memories that are indelible, and witness the boundless love in the rescue of life and death. On the screen, every warm word bursting out at a moment of crisis inspires everyone inside and outside the play to bravely move forward. On the occasion of the 12th anniversary of the Wenchuan earthquake, Xiaodianjun will string together the movie, lead everyone to look back at the pain and love in the disaster, and pay tribute to the great rebirth!
Remember the sadness and cherish the present
"Gone, only then do you know what is gone!" This sad cry made by Xu Fan in the movie "Tangshan Earthquake" is the most real and sad voice in the hearts of many victims who have suffered earthquakes. They have lost not only their homes, but also their most beloved relatives.
Xu Fan in "Tangshan Earthquake" is also facing a more tragic dilemma, when she can only choose one person to rescue among her brother and sister, she finally chooses to save her brother. But the sister miraculously survived, and after 32 years they were unexpectedly reunited, which tore open the rift of family affection. When he grew up, his younger brother Fonda said: "All the collapsed houses have been built, but the house in my mother's heart can never be built, and she has lived in ruins for thirty-two years." For the mother, this pain is really difficult to let go.
Grief and rifts always take time to heal. As long as you survive, you will surely know how to cherish the present and take care of each other. Not every disaster is over, loved ones indulge in the great sorrow of life and death, and love and warmth will still live.
In 1990, a 7.3-magnitude earthquake occurred in northwestern Iran, killing and injuring more than 40,000 people, and the famous Iranian director Abbas went to shoot the movie "Life and Growth Stream". In this half-recorded, half-plot work, we see that the villagers who survived the disaster did not fall into grief in the ruins of the broken wall. After the disaster, they cherished the preciousness of life even more, they were tenacious and strong, and they actively threw themselves into the work of rebuilding their homes, and their eyes were eager for a new life.
A young man who lost his loved ones in the earthquake wanted to hurry up and get married to his fiancée and start a newlywed life; a group of victims put tv antennas on the hillside to enjoy the Night's World Cup soccer match, and someone said: "The earthquake may be once every 40 years, and the World Cup is once every four years." ”
After experiencing despair and grief, we are greeted by a yearning for a happy life. The survivors in the film show great vitality. Life goes on, and the spring breeze blows again.
In 1988, there was a 6.9 magnitude earthquake on the Scale of Rui in Soviet Armenia, and the movie "Armenian Earthquake" was based on this adaptation. A warm and touching scene in the film happened to an old grandfather and grandmother after the disaster.
When Grandpa rescued his wife from the rubble, he excitedly danced the dance he and his wife had married, and they hugged and cried. The grandmother then cried and asked, "How will we live in the future?" Grandpa replied affectionately, "A good life" "A person is a disaster, and we will live well, people all over the world have come to help us, and we will continue to live." ”
Disasters are not terrible, what is terrible is that there is only one person left after the disaster. The love of relatives supports the survivors to continue to move forward, and the love of all walks of life after the disaster has also gathered into a powerful force to overcome difficulties and forge ahead.
Because of love, born again in tribulations
"When you save a life, you save the whole world." This classic line of the movie "Schindler's List" can also reflect the sense of responsibility and mission that all the donors silently shouldered after the Wenchuan earthquake.
We have never forgotten these images of earthquake relief: the People's Liberation Army, firefighters, etc. racing against time to rescue the victims pressed in the collapsed rubble; medical workers went to the front line day and night to save lives and help the injured; volunteers from all over the world united as one to convey love and hope in the disaster area.
Through the footage of the documentary "People First" and the movie "Earth-Shattering", we can once again relive the heroic scene of the People's Liberation Army's earthquake relief efforts in a panoramic way.
"Earth-shattering"
"For your peace, we march forward." The movie "Heroes of fire" praises the heroic and fearless image of firefighters, and every disaster relief work in reality, including Wenchuan, is inseparable from their presence.
There are also doctors, nurses, volunteers, etc., and different groups of aid have used professionalism and selfless love to hold up the hope of life together.
12 years ago, many people who did not go to the Wenchuan disaster area also fell in love with the frontline and donated their love. It is also because of this love that the strangers have brought each other closer.
In "Hello Beijing" in "My Motherland and Me", Ge You plays a Beijing taxi driver who befriends a Wenchuan boy who lost his father in the earthquake because of a ticket for the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games. The boy came to Beijing alone just to touch the bird's nest because of the death of his parents in the Wenchuan earthquake, because there was a sweat from the father of the construction worker. Ge You eventually decided to give up the opportunity to see the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympic Games and gave the ticket to the Wenchuan boy.
"My Motherland and Me" "Hello Beijing"
Twelve years have passed since the Wenchuan earthquake, and the word "Wenchuan" has been deeply imprinted in people's minds, which is not only a wake-up call to the earthquake disaster, but also a symbol of rebirth.
During the Wenchuan earthquake, the Maternity Hospital in Shifang City, Sichuan Province, was severely damaged. At the moment of crisis, the Shifang Luohan Monastery opened its doors, and the medical staff and monks and masters went all out to help transfer and rescue pregnant women. In the end, 108 new beings were born one by one in the Luohan Temple. Master Su Quan of the Luohan Monastery said, "The number 108 represents consummation. Since then, these 108 children have also been called "Luohanwa".
When Wu Jing went to Sichuan to relieve the disaster, he lived in the Shifang Luohan Temple, and he also witnessed the growth of these 108 "Luohanwa". After the disaster relief, Wu Jing often went to comfort and bring supplies to the children. This true event was adapted into the movie "One Hundred and Eight" this year, and Wu Jing, as a witness of the year, also led the audience to look back at this story of human love and desperate life in the film.
To be alive is to rebuild the hope of everything. Only after going through hellish trials can we refine the power to create heaven.
At this moment, may those who have passed away rest in peace, and may those who are alive cherish it. In the years to come, all is well!
