abstract

In the heyday of the economy, a large number of foreign immigrants poured into Japan, and they regarded Japan as a gold rush paradise, and named it "Du Yuan". But the Japanese hate this name and call these immigrants "Yuan thieves".

After her mother died, an unknown girl named "Du Yuan" was sent to the prostitute Gu Liguo. The kind-hearted Guliguo took the girl in temporarily and named her Papilio according to the butterfly tattooed on her chest.

One day, Guliguo took Papilio to a waste resettlement area and garage called "Empty". There, Butterfly met Huo, Aaron, Lang Lang and others, all of whom were "Yuan thieves" from different countries. Soon, the butterflies who often go to the "blue sky" to help became familiar with them and became bosom friends. One night, a guest of Guliguo tried to rape a butterfly. Aaron, who heard the news, accidentally killed this man. When disposing of the body, everyone was surprised to find that there was a tape hidden in the man's stomach, which recorded the American song "My Way".

Lang Lang's real identity is a killer of a secret organization. He learned through his partner Chun Mei that the person killed by Aaron was a member of the underworld Sudo, and the magnetic induction data for making counterfeit money was hidden in that tape. People use this tape to copy a lot of counterfeit money and get rich overnight. Aaron and others returned to China after making a fortune, while Hong Fei left the "blue sky" and bought a nightclub in the city, turning it into a live broadcast room dedicated to Guliguo singing. Soon, Gu Liguo signed a record company because of his excellent singing talent. Under the interference of the company, the famous solid fruit had to break off relations with these "yuan thieves"

At the same time, the owner of the tape, underworld leader Liu Liangkui, learned of the whereabouts of the tape and sent people to hunt down Gu and others. Hong Fei, who was at large, was arrested by the police for using counterfeit money and died in prison after being tortured. Guliguo was hijacked by Liu Liangkui's men and rushed to the "blue sky" to get the tape. With the help of Chun Mei, Lang Lang killed these gangsters tactfully. After a storm, people returned to the "blue sky" and bid farewell to Hong Fei in the form of cremation. Sad butterflies also burned boxes of banknotes.

Finally, Butterfly returned the tape to Liu Liangkui, who met by chance, and told him that Guliguo was his long-lost sister.

1996, Shunji Iwai, who is good at shooting low-cost short films, released the feature film Swallowtail Butterfly, which cost five million dollars after careful preparation and shooting.

In Swallowtail Butterfly, Shunji Iwai did not continue to write love fairy tales in love letters, but looked at immigrants from a girl's perspective. The main characters of the film come to Du Yuan from all corners, forget their names, and become robbers of yen and slaves of money. Shunji Iwai put forward such a sharp question in the film: For people, is money the purpose of dreams or the means to realize them? The thieves' initial dream in "Butterflies" was just to make a lot of money, but when the dream really came true, they found that it didn't seem to matter compared with the price they paid. In a sense, The Butterfly is also a fairy tale, an allegorical fairy tale about modern society. With the rapid development of economy today, Shunji Iwai warned every audience with an artist's keen sense of smell that money is not the meaning of survival.

However, those yuan thieves who look dirty in the movie have beautiful dreams and can sacrifice everything for them. This makes us see the other side of Swallowtail Butterfly: it celebrates the idealistic spirit of people sacrificing their dreams and facing death calmly.

Although "Heavy Butterflies" is full of tragic colors, we should also see the "blue sky" under the bright sunshine while we are saddened by the death of Hong Fei. At least Shunji Iwai left people a dream home there.

-transferred from Netease.

Shunji Iwai is popular for her romantic and sad love letters. However, the film completely changed its style, fictional a Tokyo suburb, which is the base camp of Japanese illegal immigrants. Gangsters from all corners of the country live with vagrants, and everyone is fighting for a secret tape containing digital data, which can be used to cheat ATM lines. With the separation of dialogue between China, Britain and Japan and the diversification of roles, the whole film deliberately highlights the intention of Japanese films to go international. Unfortunately, the plot is too conceptual and the rhythm is not controlled enough, which leads to colorful forms. Hong Kong singers were invited to perform the Japanese assassin's cat float, but Japanese actors played the role of Shanghai immigrant Huo, and Japanese female singers sang the Chinese song Nanhai Girl!
