创作阐述
People always say that if you get too close to an elephant, you can never see its whole picture, and I think I do the same with my mother and my hometown. I was born in an ordinary Daur family in the Inner Mongolian grasslands, and confrontation, was the norm for my mother to get along with. After being estranged from my mother, I began to imagine what it would be like if I were to use a rope to tie my sick mother and I together for a year? Then I turned on my computer and started working on the story.
故事大纲
Zheren, a Mongolian horse-head fiddle player, suddenly receives a phone call from his mother, who has been suffering from Alzheimer's disease for many years, and chooses to leave the national orchestra for the time being and return to his hometown to visit his mother. He finds out that his brother has been keeping his mother in a barred room as a precaution against her getting lost, and that she is in a precarious state of mental disorganization. After the two brothers blame each other and curse each other, Zherren takes his mother away from the city and goes back to the pastureland for a break. Arriving at the place where he was born and raised, his mother unexpectedly opens her mouth to sing a funeral song for the deceased at a funeral, and leaves in the night without saying goodbye. When Zhe Ren and the herders find her the next day, her mother keeps repeating that she wants to follow the "moving house" to find her husband, who disappeared years ago. Despite her pleas, she was forced to return to her brother's house in the city. As his brother's house is no longer occupied by his mother, Chul-jin is forced to bring her back to the grasslands. In order to prevent his mother from disappearing again, he moves his own bed into her room and ties a rope around their waists, so that she cannot escape from his sight even for a moment. This new way of imprisonment not only tortures his mother, but also interrogates Cheol-yin's heart. ......
