On December 19, the launching ceremony of the film "Amamoayi" and the 40th anniversary of the founding of Mabian Yi Autonomous County were held in Beijing, and the official announcement of the film was officially set for March 16, 2024. "Amamoayi" takes rural revitalization as the background of the times, and takes the experience of the ** Commission for Discipline Inspection and the State Supervision Commission in the process of establishing Tonghua Peiyou Class and Tonghua School in the process of fixed-point assistance in Mabian Yi Autonomous County, Leshan City, Sichuan Province, as the content, which truly shows the development and deepening of education support in ethnic minority areas in the new era, and deeply understands the practical significance and inheritance value of education.
"Amoayi" revolves around the study story of an ordinary Yi girl Amoayi in Xiaoliangshan, telling the touching path of this mountain girl - Ayi, who was originally at school age, dropped out of school for some reason after only one year of study, and it was not until the education support team went deep into ordinary people's homes to investigate that Ayi, who was already 14 years old, was noted. In order to solve the practical problem of re-enrolling older students in school, the education support team decided to thoroughly solve the "old debts" in education after discussions with the townships and counties, and to invest more funds, energy, and affection to truly "control dropouts and ensure education."
To this end, Mabian Yi Autonomous County founded the Tonghua Peiyou Class, where Ayi found the motivation and dream to move forward, and she hopes to one day return to the newly built rural primary school as a teacher, so that more children in the mountains can also find their own future. As Ayi's self-description in the promotional video at the film launch ceremony** said: "The outside world is very big, but I still love my hometown." It is the love for her hometown that makes Ayi choose to do her part to contribute to the education of her hometown and help more children go out of the mountains to see the sea and the sky outside - this is also a true practice of the word "inheritance".
Han Mei, Secretary of the Party Committee and Chairman of Emei Film Group, introduced at the launching ceremony of the film "Amoayi" that the film "Amoayi" has been in preparation since April last year, and after the meticulous craftsmanship and repeated polishing of the creative team led by the first-class screenwriter and director Miao Yue, a delicate and touching work has finally been created. The film focuses on the work of supporting education, showing the importance of education development in blocking the intergenerational transmission of poverty, and presenting the investment and development of the party and the party in basic education for ethnic minorities and ethnic areas since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China from a new perspective.
Guo Jie, member of the Standing Committee of the Leshan Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and Minister of the Propaganda Department, and Xianping, Secretary of the County Party Committee of Mabian Yi Autonomous County, also delivered speeches at the launching ceremony.
As a film that depicts the life and study of Yi girls, "Amoayi" boldly uses amateur actors to restore the real life of the Yi people, and tells this moving story with a more original realistic description. Miao Yue introduced that in order to ensure the authenticity and artistic appeal of the film, the film crew went to the field many times to experience the production and life of the Yi people in Mabian, visited the education system of Mabian County, and learned about the process of the creation of Tonghua Peiyou Class, which laid a solid foundation for creation. Although the main actors in the play are selected from local students and the masses, it is gratifying that these actors who lack acting experience have completed the filming through their own life experience and down-to-earth and serious creative spirit, and have reproduced the real experience of party members and cadres working together to fight poverty and become well-off in poverty alleviation with their own personal feelings. Marseille, the director of photography of the film, also shared the experience of working hard with amateur actors on the spot, and he believes that it is the joint efforts of many creators and actors that make the audience better feel the tenacious, optimistic, high-spirited and positive spirit of the protagonists of "Amuayi".
In the story of "Amoayi", the efforts of the education support team help Ayi to return to school, enrich herself, and step by step towards her own bright and beautiful futureIn addition to the film, the education support work has really given more ordinary children like Ayi the opportunity to move towards a broader life. Just as the singer Huang Ying and the Deep Space Youth Choir sang the lyrics of the movie of the same name in the promotion song of the same name, behind "you have to bravely run to that far place", there are groups of continuous dedication and hard work of education workers, the determination of party committees at all levels to spare no effort to grasp education, and the enthusiasm and persistence of children like paulownia flowers, even if the flowering period is late. It is precisely because of this that "Amoayi" has more touching charm.
At the launching ceremony, many viewers said after watching the film that they were moved by the hardships of the teaching work in the story and Ayi's hopeful persistence, including the volunteer teachers who knew the hardships of education and the difficulties of the children's education, and the families who brought their children to watch the film and were deeply touched by Ayi's efforts in the film. And these are precisely the positive energy brought by the truth and sincerity of the film. The film "Amorayi" focuses on the topic of rural education with artistic appeal, and depicts in detail the meticulous and flexible working methods of the education support team in the new era, such as: they continue to put forward new ideas and new methods to solve problems such as the adaptability gap of older studentsWhile continuously investing in educational resources and improving the level of education, the local people have also understood the concept of "curing poverty first and treating ignorance first, and helping poverty first and helping wisdom first".It not only truly achieves "dropout control and protection" and pays off the "old historical accounts" of basic education, but also makes the local people realize the important practical significance of education for the long-term development of societyIt also inspires more people to join the cause of education and continuously contribute to rural revitalization.
In order to make more contributions to the children in Mabian in addition to the restoration of art, the producers of the movie "Amoayi" decided to jointly launch the "Let Every Child Read Good Books" public welfare education activity, and every time a movie ticket is sold after the film is released, 1 yuan will be donated to the development of Mabian education, and the development of education in Mabian County will be supported with practical actions and strength, which also makes the film have more valuable practical significance.
