The love science fiction film "Guide", which was first produced by singer Fang Datong, held its premiere in Beijing, Shanghai and other cities last night, and director Suna Shan, director of photography Saba and other main creators appeared at the beijing premiere ceremony after the meeting.
It is reported that the "Guidelines" will be released exclusively in the National Elephant Focus Theater on November 11.
This love science fiction film about technology and human nature, love and lies sets the story in the near future after a global war. A radical lie detector "guide" was invented to enlighten and change human beings who are good at deceiving and harming each other.
The inventors selected a couple as the first test subjects, and they installed "guides" to torture each other step by step. When technology intervenes in emotional relationships, can humanity stand the "ultimate test"?
Suna Shan, the director of "Guidelines", is a Director of Iranian descent who has lived in Beijing and has traveled to the Middle East, Southeast Asia and North America. China is the place where he has lived the longest in his life and has long since become his second home.
"Guide" is Sunashan's first Chinese feature film, which blends Eastern and Western charms in narrative and visual imagery. The film's producer is singer-songwriter Fang Datong, and "Guidelines" is his first film as a producer and creative producer.
During the film screening, the male and female protagonists use scientific and technological means to "guide" each other's "love temptation" to make the audience smile, and the female audience is particularly sympathetic to the film, and the laughter on the scene is continuous.
In the post-screening exchange session, a self-proclaimed single audience member sighed, "After watching this movie, I don't believe in love." Another female audience member who came to watch the film with the "object of affection" said, "I rethinked my attitude towards lies in love, but I am still very confident in love and will face feelings more rationally." ”
Many viewers believed that "this movie is suitable for people of any age to watch, because everyone and their family, lovers, friends need to explore questions about honesty." ”
A 70-year-old veteran audience member, a primary school teacher at producer Fang Datong, excitedly said that she would recommend this film to teachers, her own students and parents, "This is a very different movie, but also a movie full of love." Some viewers joked, "You can recommend this movie to couples who want to break up." ”
At the Beijing premiere, "Guidelines" director Suna Shan and director of photography Saba answered the audience's rather professional questions about "changes in the film's format".
"The two format changes highlight the time cues: all the wide-format shots of the ex-lover are flashbacks from 3 months ago, while the 4:3 shots of the current lover (male and female protagonists) take place in the present. The 4:3 frame ratio forces us to feel close to the couple. It is so close in the true physical sense that the characters seem to occupy the whole picture. On the other hand, the use of a wide frame ratio in the scene of a former lover magnifies the physical distance of the relationship, which helps the audience understand their emotional distance. ”
After the premiere ceremony in various places, a "lie detector test" session designed according to the theme of the film was also held, and girlfriends, couples, couples, single audiences, etc. took to the stage to accept the test of "Truth or Dare".
A couple who have been married for many years face the "soul torture" of "being together for so long, will they feel that each other is getting uglier", the male audience sincerely answers "no", successfully passes the lie detector, and the affectionate confession causes bursts of cheers.
A male audience member was infected by the mood of the film, telling the story of exchanging mobile phone passwords the day after he and his lover met, and bravely shared his "secret that must be told before marriage", which was applauded and encouraged by the audience.
