"Wuhai" is a realistic film directed and written by Zhou Ziyang, starring Huang Xuan and Yang Zishan, and specially starring Tu.
Although there is little news about this play, this play actually belongs to the big hidden city. In October 2019, the film "Wuhai" started low-key, and before it was completed, it was named "one of the most concerned films in 2020" by the world-renowned film critic magazine "Screen".
In addition, "Wuhai" has also won a number of awards. Shortlisted for the top Asian film platform, debuted at the Shanghai International Film Festival. These glories have caused Wuhai to repeatedly postpone the release of the film. It is also the only Chinese film to be shortlisted for the main competition unit of the San Sebastian International Film Festival, and the world premiere was held at the main venue of the San Sebastian International Film Festival in Spain.
In addition to making a name for itself at home and abroad, it has also won a number of awards, including the 68th St. Sebastian International Film Festival Fibisi International Film Critic Award, the 25th Sofia International Film Festival Best Director Award, and the 3rd Hainan Island International Film Festival Golden Coconut Official Recommendation Unit Feature Film.
In fact, Huang Xuan won the best actor in the 45th Hong Kong International Film Festival Rookie Film Competition with this film.
"Wuhai" is an original script, Zhou Ziyang's new masterpiece after "Old Beast", the story tells that Yang Hua (Huang Xuan), who lives in the city of Wuhai, is deeply involved in a debt dispute, and the emotional contradictions between him and his wife Miao Wei (Yang Zishan) are also escalating, and finally he is forced to a desperate situation in life.
Yang Hua (Huang Xuan) and Miao Wei (Yang Zishan) are originally a very loving little couple, but they are accidentally involved in an incident of routine loans: a girl who owes an online loan commits suicide by cutting her wrists, while the owner of the loan is immersed in the so-called dinosaur park and singing night and night.
Since then, there have been insurmountable rifts between husband and wife, suspecting each other of infidelity and getting seemingly irrefutable evidence, and the trust between them has been completely consumed in endless quarrels, leaving only harsh rebuke and dissatisfaction with the other. After completely detonating the anger in his heart, the story leads to despair and destruction.
Although Huang Xuan and Yang Zishan cooperated for the first time this time, they portrayed the couple's struggle between love and hate.
In fact, many people did not expect that Huang Xuan once rejected this movie, believing that this role is tragic and that he will be very uncomfortable in the process of acting, so he does not particularly want to act.
However, in a heart-to-heart conversation with director Zhou Ziyang later, the director told him about his past experiences, the hesitations of life and his views on the real world, and finally Huang Xuan was touched by the director's truthfulness and sincerity and the deep expression of Yang Hua's role and decided to act.
The filming location of "Wuhai" is actually in Wuhai City, which is a city belonging to Inner Mongolia, and there is a very famous lake called Wuhai Wu. Choosing such a beautiful place as a filming location, the starting point is also to express the purpose of having a lover and eventually becoming a family.
Director Zhou Ziyang said about the meaning of the title: "I like the two words of Wuhai very much, there is a boundless desire, black, devouring meaning, these two words are very similar to the theme of the movie: these people are almost desperate because of desire and greed, I want to bring you a wake-up call." ”
Based on the above information, it can be inferred that the ending direction of "Wuhai" is BE. The sweetness of the two eventually drifted apart, walked into a desperate situation, and was even crushed by the trivial things of life. Yang Hua has been living a depressed life, and in the later stages, he not only set fire to the brother's newly built tent, but also argued with his wife at the top of the mountain, and finally ended with his wife rolling down the hillside.
This heavy and realistic topic will kick off on October 29th, the trivialities in life can always wear away your love of life, but despite this, I hope that everyone can still love life and find the light! This is the spirit that the movie wants to convey, and I hope that the lovers who have watched the movie will eventually become dependents!
