A former aristocratic family faces financial hardship and their daughter is introduced to a nice man in the auto repair business, the hope being that a marriage might be of economic assistance to the family. The daughter's family finds it hard to accept this kind of idea and the young man is uncomfortable with the difference in their social standing. However, everything works o...。"伏爾加河流域蒼鬱的平原上,有一群居民崇拜著森林裡的神祇和精靈,相信巫師、詛咒、惡魔縈繞於生活四週,這裡的女人慧黠、空靈、純真、粗獷……,面對自身的情慾,更是直率而坦蕩。 導演一改前作《沉默的靈魂》中冷凜的孤絕氛圍,透過看似荒誕的前衛敘事,揮灑出奔放不羈的民俗色彩。全片結構宛如馬賽克鑲嵌畫,二十二位女人的生命切片,被匯聚成一幅繽紛的陰性圖像:雪地裡狂歡的異教徒、住進女人陰戶的怪鳥、褻瀆聖樹而久病不癒的少女、召喚殭屍追殺愛人的吃醋男、女孩們裸舞的降靈會等等,悠遊於原始與現代、魔幻與現實間的神祕影像,如夢似幻。 平地馬裡人是西俄境內自治區的少數民族,數百年來歷經強勢文明入侵,仍保有獨特的自然崇拜,導演希望透過影像,讓人們關注到他們逐漸消逝的傳統文化和生活領域。 2013多倫多影展 / 2012羅馬影展競賽片。"。Laura loses her family in a tragic fire while living in Spain.
