"Firefly Sky": The work of street dance teenagers chasing their dreams, summer movie family fun
This summer, not only "Heat" is showing wonderful street dance competitions, but also "Firefly Sky" is focusing on dynamic street dance performances.
"Firefly Sky" is a long-lost children's movie. Why do you say "long gone"?
Today, when competition in the film market is becoming more and more fierce, film creators are more willing to shoot entertainment films aimed at adults, and children's films are ignored. As everyone knows, if children's movies are made well, they will attract the whole family to appreciate it, and the audience group is more extensive.
"Firefly Sky" tells the story of Wang Yuhan (played by Jing Yundi), a sixth-grade girl who is about to go abroad, and he leads his friends to insist on chasing their street dance dreams.
This movie captures the innocence and childlike fun unique to children. When children watch this movie, from the struggle experience of Wang Yuhan and others, they can get empathetic growth resonance; Adult audiences watching this movie will be moved by the protagonist's belief in not abandoning his dreams, and at the same time awaken childhood memories.
Each child in the film has a distinct personality. Wang Yuhan is tenacious, Zhuang Xiaoyue (played by Shao Zihan) is cheerful and has leadership skills; Jing Jing (played by Wang Kunyun) is funny and talented; Xiaoxiao (played by Zhang Shanya) is easy-going and has team cohesion; Lan Yibo (played by Fu Chenxi) is smart and brave to take on responsibilities.
Wang Yuhan's hip-hop team was initially called "Tempest", and they had to fight against the famous street dance group "Thunderfire" on campus. The five members of the Tempest Hip-Hop Troupe complement each other, so they can become a group. When the five members work together, it is as if they have assembled a sports car that can be raced on the road.
However, both the sports car and the team need to be run-in. Team members are not so familiar with each other, and the edges in their personalities can cause conflicts and collisions, and "Tempest" even has spits and fights during training. These conflicts constitute the ups and downs of the characters' relationships, but vividly depict the process of team members running-in. Any good team is a team that has been tempered by thousands of years, and no team can be perfectly fitted.
After the team's running-in was gradually completed, Wang Yuhan and their dance skills not only greatly improved, but also understood the meaning of the competition. Their instructor, Mido, emphasizes, "The process is more important than the result. ”
Wang Yuhan didn't understand this sentence at first, but when she encountered setbacks and thought of this sentence in a difficult situation, she understood that after a person or a team worked hard for their ideals, they not only gained good memories, but also strong friendships. The process is indeed more important than the result.
Wang Yuhan and her team members have a shining growth arc in the film, and they understand the importance of trust, mutual help and persistence in the process of training and competition. Wang Yuhan eventually renamed the team "Fireflies", which means that the shimmer represents hope, and when the fireflies gather together, they emit the brightest light in the sky.
The film takes street dance as the theme, through a group of children's love for street dance, depicting the driving force of street dance to the growth of teenagers. The street dance performances of the leading actors in the film are very professional, and as soon as the music starts, their sense of dance rhythm comes instantly. The excellent performances of the actors are the basis for the success of this film.
"Firefly Sky" captures the beauty of street dance and the beauty of childhood, and is a work that can move people's hearts.
