Chapter 495 The Second Injury Is Equally Scary

Compared with Liu Feilai, Zhou Qingquan, a senior reporter of Film Weekly, seemed much more normal in his film reviews.

""Suyuan" tells the story about the sexual assault of minors, although the effect presented by the movie is not the kind of bloody accusation, but shifts the focus to the process of letting the victim out of such a psychological shadow. The focus is more Mostly it was the reaction of people around Suyuan, especially her father and some of her little friends.

The film is unique in that it does not focus on the police cracking the case or restoring the tortuous crime process, but ingeniously focuses the narrative on the emotional impact of the crime on Suyuan and her family , the pressure and indifference of all parties, and the process of finally walking out of the shadows and welcoming the new life together.It is precisely because the film truly reproduces the difficult emotional journey of the criminal victim's family that the film can effectively poke the tears of the viewers.

However, the film puts forward such a tragic proposition for us: when the rights and interests of the defendant are constantly being valued, how to fully protect the victim so that they will not suffer secondary harm from society while being innocently victimized by criminal acts?
In recent years, as the process of democracy and the rule of law has gradually advanced in countries around the world, the concept of the rule of law in the judicial field has also made remarkable achievements.

From the criminal substantive rule of law concept of legally prescribed crimes and punishments, to the criminal procedural rule of law concept of eliminating doubts and excluding illegal evidence, all of them reflect that the value goal of protecting human rights in criminal procedures has gradually become a superior value concept and has become popular among the people.

Needless to say, the above-mentioned values ​​focus more on the protection of the rights and interests of criminal suspects and defendants, but the protection of criminal victims is often lackluster.

However, when we think carefully, we will find that although a series of judicial relief measures have been proposed for criminal victims in recent years, they have not been implemented satisfactorily in practice due to the constraints of concepts and traditions.Moreover, most of the so-called aid is mainly based on monetary compensation, and spiritual comfort measures such as psychological correction and restoration of damaged dignity are even more lacking in form and content.

In public prosecution cases, due to the forcible intervention of the public prosecution agency and becoming the prosecutor, and the official and social public interests represented by the public prosecution agency have a certain degree of conflict with the interests and demands of the victim, what status should the victim have in the public prosecution case? And how to reasonably set its rights, this is what we should pay attention to and think about.The basic purpose of criminal proceedings is to determine the guilt or innocence of the defendant on the basis of ascertaining the facts of the case.This process did not accommodate the victim's emotional venting and spiritual comfort needs.

The weak should be protected by the law and the perpetrators should be severely punished, but at the same time, as shown in the movie, we have never paid attention to it.

In fact, from this level, Suyuan in the film is actually lucky.

After she suffered severe physical and mental trauma, she still has a selfless and caring father: wearing stuffy props and dressing up as her daughter's favorite "Kokemon" to make her happy; , doing everything possible to protect her huge scars from being exposed to the public; there are also classmates who will never leave: the little boy did not accompany Suyuan to school on the day of the incident, which caused her accident, and felt guilty and cried bitterly, taking the initiative to be her There are also various material and spiritual help given by sympathetic neighbors and neighbors.Especially the empathetic psychiatrist, because her daughter committed suicide due to the pressure of public opinion because of the sexual assault, she has a keen experience of the pain suffered by Suyuan's family, and took the initiative to provide Suyuan with psychological treatment...

In other words, Suyuan's luck is due to the fact that she was born in a healthy society ideal for film creators.In this society, the people around Suyuan's misfortune do not act as ridicule, contempt, or numb spectators, but help the victim establish a warm emotional zone with human kindness.In this special zone, victims can receive sincere comfort and selfless assistance.It was under the protection of the warm light of this special zone that Suyuan was able to get out of the predicament in life.

But what about in reality?
The lead actor Chen Wen mentioned in an interview that of the six victims, two committed suicide, three were still depressed, autistic, and unwilling to contact society, and only one returned to a normal life.

What a terrible fact! "

A bunch of film reviews about "Suyuan" were sent from Cannes to China.

Rarely has a participating film with such a high degree of attention!
Because of the well-known things, in the palace of literary and artistic films like the Cannes Film Festival, the films participating in the competition must be literary and artistic films.

But this time "Suyuan" has received higher attention than any other participating film in the past.

There are many reasons, including the appeal of Li Yi, the best picture winner of the Oscar, Chen Wen, Lin Yunbin, Chu Xuexiang, Wen Qing and other outstanding actors, as well as the theme of "Suyuan" itself, all of which lead to There's a reason this movie gets so much attention.

What's more, the movie hasn't set a date yet, and the domestic media, netizens, are all building up momentum for the movie and discussing related topics.

At the beginning, many people knew the theme of the movie "Suyuan", and their first reaction was that movies of this type could not sell at the box office in China!

In fact, even Li Yi himself thought so.

After all, unlike "The Gift of Room No. [-]", although "Suyuan" and "The Gift of Room No. [-]" are both tear-jerking family films to a certain extent, the stories are completely different. In this movie, although There are a lot of warm and hopeful pictures shown, but more of them are heavy!

Although the ending of "The Gift of Room No. [-]" is not so perfect, it is at least a comedy.

But "Suyuan" is different, even if it is the ending shown in the movie, it is hope!But people who watch it will have a feeling, that is, despair!

Coupled with the sensitive subject matter, this movie is actually nothing exciting at all. Such a movie may be a good movie, but it is definitely not something that everyone can easily accept.

Because the first feeling people give after watching the movie is: uncomfortable!

However, as more and more people joined the discussion, the media, film critics, netizens, etc., the topic became more and more popular. Invisibly, this movie has not yet been released, and there is already a very good one. Screening environment.

And don't forget, "Suyuan" has also entered the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival.

At the same time, Li Yi and the others have received the invitation for the closing ceremony.

Unlike the Oscars, it is a common practice of the three major European film festivals that as long as they receive an invitation to the closing ceremony, it basically means that they have won an award!

And once this movie wins an award, it will also be a huge publicity!

For this reason, many movies to be released in the summer file are a bit awkward!
