This season is inspired by the classic black and white film “The Prison Break” directed by Robert Bresson in 1956. There are no complex and huge scenes in the pure minimalist lens language. The simple composition and large number of close-ups even limit the audience’s perspective. The entire film is like refined metal, pure and indestructible.
The director tried his best to explore the characters and stories as deeply and thoroughly as possible, and solidly depicted the story of a single character in a fixed space step by step. It is like a simple and exquisite poem, a poem of tenacity and burning longing for freedom.

Cartier-Bresson himself said: The art of film lies in suggestion. The film’s abandonment of idle brushstrokes and extremely restrictive shooting techniques are quite inspiring, triggering Li Jun’s new understanding of the limitations of design. The scene where the protagonist is compressed in a limited space and climbs up a high window with his face separated by an iron fence made Li Jun combine straight and curved lines with iconic gap elements to apply to clothes of different silhouettes, using straps to change the shape of the clothes. The cut place inadvertently shuttles out, using the structure of the clothing to express the spiritual intention of the film’s English translation, A man escaped. In the post-epidemic era, the imprisoned pace can cut through waves and break through clouds and fog.

The colors of this season use earth tones and gray greens to a certain extent, quietly and sandwiched between black and white. The traditional tally mark has been redesigned and combined into printing and embroidery patterns. As the curves spread on the clothes, they are like branches formed by the intersection of hope, forming a huge and quiet force, going beyond the fence. .
Except for the opening scene of Mozart’s C minor Mass, the entire movie has almost no music, but it is full of a powerful and sacred religious power, because everything is so orderly and comes from concentration and firm goals. Just like the French title of the film, Le Vent Souffle Où Il Veut, “The wind blows where it wants to go.”
