1905 movie network news Recently, the film screening and post-screening symposium on the theme of warm realism was held in the China Film Association. Directed by the director, Giorgiya tells the story of Giorgiya, a 3-year-old girl, and her family, which involves such important topics as family of origin, transnational marriage, female psychology, intergenerational conflicts and class integration. With simple and plain image style, special narrative perspective and restrained emotional presentation, the film creates implicit and tense poetic meaning.

Experts attending the forum included Hu Jianli, Secretary-General of China Film Criticism Society and Editor-in-Chief of Film and Television Vane. Wu Yajun, Professor of Film and Television Department of Central Academy of Drama and Deputy Secretary General of China Film Literature Society; Li Zhen, vice president of china children film association and researcher of China Film Art Research Center; Tan Qiuwen, editor of Contemporary Film; Li Xiaoyang, associate professor and poet of Beijing Film Academy; Liu Qi, Associate Research Fellow of China Federation of Literary and Art Circles Film Art Center.

At the meeting, experts and scholars discussed the theme, artistic pursuit, shooting techniques of the film "Giorgiya" and its reference significance for domestic children’s film creation. Hu Jianli believes that this film has a distinct realistic texture, has a keen observation of the new problems in China’s marriage and family, and shows the pursuit of artistic conception in audio-visual language; Although the little actor is only three years old, he shows quite mature and natural acting talent, and has contributed a brand-new image to the children’s theme of domestic films. Wu Yajun pointed out that in the current production environment, it is rare that the film has no utilitarian heart. The writing of "female emotional value" in the work is impressive, and the multi-level plot is full of dramatic tension. Tan Qiuwen pointed out that the most fascinating part of the film lies in the narrative rhythm, and the work is full of life texture. Although the plot is not complicated, the connotation is intriguing. Liu Qi thinks that Giorgiya is innovative in audio-visual language, and his works construct formal aesthetics such as tone, light and shade and composition, which are suitable for the theme, and create a unique "mirror structure" in the picture and narrative. Li Xiaoyang also noticed the structural characteristics of emotional expression in the film, pointing out that the narrative focus of the film is the relationship between two generations of mothers and daughters, and the emotional expression in real life is poetically expressed in the way of "life flow". Li Zhen believes that Giorgiya is a work that pays attention to love and analyzes the philosophy of love, and the story is infused with a special sense of life.There is even a "soul perspective" that does not exist in real life, which implies an imperceptible causal relationship in the narrative of family contradictions; The work has the temperament of "poetic film".

The atmosphere of the symposium was warm, and the creative staff such as director Qiao Mei, starring actor, producer and screenwriter also shared their creative experience, and made in-depth discussions with scholars on the conception of some important paragraphs of the film.
