The subtitle of Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet’s first feature, from 1965, “Only Violence Helps Where Violence Reigns,” suggests the fierce political program evoked by their rigorous aesthetic. The pretext of the film, set in Cologne, is Heinrich Böll’s novel “Billiards at Half Past Nine,” which they strip down to a handful of stark events and film with a confrontational angularity akin to Bartók’s music that adorns the soundtrack. The subtlest of cues accompany the story’s complex flashbacks. The middle-aged Robert Fähmel tells a young hotel bellhop of persecutions under the Third Reich| his elderly father, Heinrich, an architect famed for a local abbey, recalls the militarism of the First World War, when his wife, Johanna, incurred trouble for insulting the Kaiser. A third-generation Fähmel is considering architecture, just as the exiled brother of Robert’s late wife, returns, only to be met by their former torturer, now a West German official taking part in a celebratory parade of war veterans. Straub and Huillet make the layers of history live in the present tense, which they judge severely. The tamped-down acting and the spare, tense visual rhetoric suggest a state of moral crisis as well as the response—as much in style as in substance—that it demands.。以当今物质丰富的日本社会中,被人遗忘于一角的,每天无法吃饱饭的儿童们为视角拍摄的电影。小学5年级的勇人,父母经营着一家食堂,他和妹妹每天过着衣食无忧的安稳生活。另一方面,勇人的好朋友贵志家则是完全不管孩子的单亲妈妈家庭。因此勇人的父母经常把贵志带来家里吃晚饭。某天,勇人遇到了和父亲一起住在车里的两姐妹,他便拜托父母为她们做饭。几天后,两姐妹的父亲失踪了。于是勇人和贵志带着两姐妹开始了令人意外的行动......。
