Only when the Coffee Storm enters the center of the storm, can we find the direction of life.

The movie "Coffee Storm", jointly created by Italy and filmed in three places, was released on New year's Eve, bringing a mellow aroma between fighting and killing and demons and ghosts. It tells stories that take place in three countries. It gathers different elements such as crime, business war, family affection and growth. The characters are not related to each other, but they are inexplicably linked to each other.

This is the normal state of the world. It is conceivable that we who are watching movies and those who are far away from a foreign country may feel happy, nervous or moved by the same plot and make the same expression, although the language does not understand. But there is always something in the world that makes us feel the same way, and that is the charm of movies.

"Coffee Storm" is such a film that does not deliberately create audio-visual stimulation, but through distracted plots and performances, it brings a comfortable and comfortable spiritual experience to the audience, while at the same time getting some aesthetic and poetic images. learn more about the world. Just like the story that takes place in Belgium, the owner of a pawnshop is faced with the economic crisis, street violence, and panicked people; in Italy, a young man takes risks because his wife is pregnant, and his life suddenly changes from comfort to danger. In China, there is a safety accident at a factory in Yunnan, and Ren Fei, played by Lu Fangsheng, is sent to solve the problem because she meets a female artist played by Tan Zhuo and finds that her inner problem is far from a factory.

If there are any similarities in the three stories, then we can say that they are all unfolding the source of the storm that people have specially intended. In the seemingly peaceful life, there are many crises lurking, some of them are real threats from the outside world, some are from the inner level, nostalgia for hometown, guilt for loved ones, or obsession with something, the embarrassment of life, the narrow encounter with criminals, some emergencies. It does not exist in isolation, but is triggered by something after years of incubation and gestation.

For example, Liu Cixin's novel "Ball Lightning" says that tornadoes do not happen accidentally, but have an imperceptible seed that, triggered by suitable conditions, will become a storm in real life. The movies "the Tower of Babel" and "Cloud Picture" are such stories, there is a kind of thing that controls everyone's life. Only by facing it bravely can we find the right direction in the storm. The re-school newspaper returned to the right track of life, just like Lu Fangsheng in the film. Although his teenage experiences and factory problems caused a storm, Tan Zhuo's paintings, as well as the coffee forests all over the mountains, showed him the way.

It is said that human beings spoke the same language at first, but then some people became ambitious and wanted to build a tower of Babel to heaven. In a fit of anger, God divided human beings into different languages and ethnic groups, disintegrating this rebellious plan. Since about that time, there has been estrangement and suspicion between human beings. up to now, although human science and technology are becoming more and more advanced and ideas are more and more advanced, there are more and more contradictions, resulting in a state of disintegration and war.

In terms of artistic language, human beings are always common. "Coffee Storm" is a film that resonates with audiences all over the world. Director Christian Botona has studied Chinese, and his special experience has made him master the Chinese story at all. He captures the beauty of Yunnan very well, regardless of the scenery, customs and emotions.
