The Girl in the Swamp is a touching film that offers a unique perspective on the relationship between people and nature, between people, and the resilience and growth of women in the face of adversity. And the depiction of the swirling wetlands is simply a fairyland on earth, an ecological world full of mystery and harmony. Mountains and mountains are full of greenery. In the dense woods, the birds are singing and the breeze is blowing, making people feel like they are in a fairyland.
Opening with a male corpse in a swamp, the heroine Kia Clark is suspected of being the number one suspect in the case. As the story progresses, the audience gradually learns about Kia's upbringing. She lived in a difficult family environment, her father was an alcoholic and abusive, her mother and older siblings ran away from home, and finally her father was nowhere to be found.
Lonely and young, under the discrimination of the town's residents, she does not want to go to school, nor does she want to be accepted by ***, and she can only live alone in the swamp. No matter how twists and turns life throws, she sticks to herself and finds her own way of life.
I was impressed by Kia's tenacity. As a girl abandoned by her family and alone in the swamp to make a living, Kia shows amazing courage and perseverance. Instead of giving up, without despair, he chose to face life bravely and support himself with his own hands. Although her life was full of difficulties and challenges, she always maintained her faith in love.
Kia fishes and digs shellfish in the swamp for supplies, while she also observes and depicts all life in the swamp, gradually growing into a young naturalist. In the process, she experiences the departure of her first love, Ted, and the betrayal of her second boyfriend, Chase. When Chase wants to violate her, she resolutely fights back, the source of her childhood misfortune, and after the warning is ineffective, he acts to save himself from repeating her mother's tragedy. Eventually, Chase's body was found in the swamp.
The swamp is an important element in the film, both as a place for Kia to live and a haven for her to gain inner peace. Since she was a child, she has been barefoot and shuttled through this swamp in a small boat. During her childhood, adolescence and young adulthood, this swamp nurtured her and taught her a vision of nature and life. This is especially true in nature, where heaven and earth are unkind, and everything is just like a dog. The wetland is a space of light, where grass grows in the water, the water flows to the sky, and the stream flows slowly, meandering to the sea with the shadow of the sun.
The film's narrative is excellent, with a double-line approach. On the one hand, it shows Kia's growth process and encounters, and on the other hand, it reveals the details of the case at the scene of the trial debate. The two threads are intertwined to make the story more compact and tense. I deeply realized the meaning and value of life, and my persistence and persistence in love made me feel admired, and also made people believe in the power of love more. It will also make more people feel the beauty and strength of life.
In addition, the film also shows her inner world and view of nature through Kia's self-narration. She applies the experience of nature directly to her own relationship with society, and believes that human beings and nature should coexist in harmony. This view is still highly valued in today's society.
Overall, "The Girl in the Swamp" is a very worthwhile movie. It not only has suspenseful elements, but also shows the resilience and growth of women in difficult situations. At the same time, the film also expresses her thinking and exploration of the relationship between man and nature through Kia's view of nature. This movie deserves more attention and recommendation.
