Today, let's talk about the movie "Meandering".
Title Meander (2020).
This French small-budget thriller tells a highly conceptual story, and the main focus of the film is on the setting of the film.
Audiences need to follow in the footsteps of the heroine Lisa and explore a whole new realm little by little.
Lisa is a French woman, a few years ago because of neglect, her daughter fell from the upper floor, Lisa also fell into deep self-blame, the whole person became lifeless.
Lisa was wandering aimlessly on the road when she suddenly encountered an unexpected accident.
Lisa wakes up to find herself trapped in a mysterious and cramped space, and she needs to find a glimmer of life in the unknown and danger.
Meandering is a thriller film that peddles settings.
The main focus of the film is in the film setting, one tight pipe followed by another forced pipe, each pipe contains different dangers, and the explorer needs to pass through all the pipes to escape.
But explorers have only one life, and one wrong step will cost their lives.
The title Meander literally translates to "river bend / walk / meandering / roundabout travel", and Lisa's main action in the film is to travel around in the meandering pipes.
Compared with the motionless "Buried Alive", "Meandering" expands the confined space and extends the coffin vertically and infinitely, forming this high-concept film.
Most reviews will mention that the film "references" Cube (1997), and if you stare at the setting of pipe after pipe in the film, it is indeed very similar.
But just to give the film a low rating, it is too irresponsible. "Meandering" also refers to the high concept of "Stay" (2005), as well as famous IP such as "Alien", the film is not simply stacked with elements of various classic works, but has obvious ideas of its own, and it is also an encouraging behavior to absorb the strengths of all families.
By the end of the story, the concepts involved in Meandering are no longer limited to a variety of mysterious contents, mysterious and terrifying creatures, broods, psychics, and even the final place where it happens is not on Earth.
The film brings together all sorts of bizarre ideas, and interpreting them in any direction can form a new worldview.
The simplest interpretation is that Lisa died when she suddenly braked, and everything behind her was her hallucination at the time of her death.
Although "Meandering" seems a bit chaotic, this high-density concept setting is very suitable for making an adventure class A· RPG。
There is a small Easter egg at the starting point of the Lisa expedition.
The hollows in all the walls are not simple decorations, but Morse yards.
The text at the entrance may read "Vite", which means "fast" in French.
Overall, Meander is a very interesting movie.
At least I found it interesting to watch, each organ has its own characteristics, the chasers create a strong sense of oppression, and the escape port is within reach and nothingness.
The film captures the audience's psychology well, creating an atmosphere of tension, unknown and fear at all times.
Audiences who like this intensive genre of film can watch it and be pleasantly surprised.
