第一次看越南电影，殖民地身份是若隐若现的背景。地域造就生存形态，也造就电影的外观。虽然全片都是水环境，但没有特别潮湿的感觉。对几场戏的构图印象很深，尤其是水葬一幕。人作为自然的一份子，也处于永恒的循环之中。以这种世界观来看待死亡，就没有了溢满的悲伤。对情节推进和演员表演不太满意。
水上遊牧族群的魔幻現實主義下百年孤獨裡越南人的命運和他們與世界的關係，全是水。
作为处女作相当成熟了，水上葬礼很有趣，感觉整个亚洲（或者是农耕文明）的生死观挺相似的，配乐特别日本。
魔幻现实主义版《春夏秋冬又一春》
和水牛一起长大，所有的水就是世界。洪水淹没土地，所有的东西都会腐烂，草、房子、水牛……还有人。（想起关于尸体的歌：这些尸体让土地更肥沃，让大地更添气息，让你走在未来布满荆棘的路上不是孤单的.......）
海天相接的画面，木筏摇曳、水牛行走，人在受苦。
青兕未济弱水，三千浮世何牧何宰？
其实身为黄种人真的挺黑的…看看越南人就有自知之明了👀
这是神的旨意。
湄公河下游金瓯半岛，水裹挟大地的精华一起到来，吞噬一切死亡、过去的人和生灵。。。人们生活在这里，出生又死亡，法国人、日本人，来了又走，只有旱季和涝季如常到来
看新鲜
写意的部分挺好...
另一种真实的生活，视觉效果非常好。
