Faithless Games
After an hour sleep, I was back in the City for THE MOVIE. It was the last screening in the film festival and I had to see it. After all, it is a Slovakian film and that's all the matter.
I just wanted to make sure that I didn't understand the language and I still don't!
It took me a while to start watching the movie coz I was trying to listen to the movie rather than reading the subtitle, but soon I had to give up. I still don't understand enough it to make sense. However, when the husband said 'Pekne' ironically to the wife, I laughed before everyone else, then the subtitle came out later and the rest of audience follow my lead. The feeling was great!!!!
I was slow to recognise the place even that cathedral and the name of the space were so familiar. I blame the lack of sleep and my thesis. Half way through the film, I suddenly clicked!!!! It is THE Sturovo and THE Esztergom. I was playing water in THAT Danube between those two cities!! That's where we had our 5 passports photo taken and get our stampo by walking across that bridge. That's where I met Peter and Eva. That's where we all got pretty drunk and some of the doddgy stories/rumors came out the next days. That's where I climbed up a tree and played hide and see with the other. I was THERE!!!
Movie itself was great too. It's kind of drama that you know it could be real. It doesn't have all those fake climax in most of drama film, but it has those daily drama in your and my lives. I really envy the couple can express their feeling to each other through the music. It's something I have never able to it even I have been playing piano for so long. In fact, I always afraid of commenting what the music is all about. I have no idea whether or not this music is depressing/sad/happy/cheerful/emotional. Another thing amazes me is how ppl can just sleep with someone so easily without feeling shameful. How can a kiss or a touch loss your judgment so easily. This world is too weird to understand for me sometimes.
