很多处音画juxtaposition非常当代艺术 很游离的文本 感觉更像纪录片 关于progress的平行线展示 贯穿全片桥与飞翔的美国梦概念 但处处也流露对故园 传统的留恋 “A simple tribute is more power than the faint monument of our civilization” 挺有意思
magical hybrid cinema!Out of sync English narration, VOA as colonial propaganda, comical diegetic-turned-non-diegetic sound effect, scene reconstructions of family memory, circumcision ritual, factory worker portrait, scene reconstruction with local natives and children to juxtapose supposedly grandiose "international meetings". Scathing critique of imperial power and its neoliberal twin ("one less vendor means one more parking lot!") in a lighthearted, fanciful (almost wishful-thinkingly) mocking way. The change of the heart moment at the end seems a little bit abrupt although you can see seeds have been planted all along.
