Storia
The story unfolds around a family consisting of a dying father, Mr. Boi, and his two children: a daughter who wishes to marry but cannot precede her brother's nuptials, and a mentally disabled son named Maize. Before his death, Mr. Boi is determined to find a suitable woman for Maize to bear a male heir, ensuring the family line continues. Despite several attempts to send Maize to the love market, none of the women seem suitable or willing. As time runs out, Mr. Boi grows increasingly desperate, fearing that his death will be hindered by demonic spirits if their family name is lost.
Riassunto
'Nguoi truyen giong' (2014), directed by Kim Quy Bui, explores themes of familial duty, tradition, and the desperation to preserve one's legacy. Set in a secluded mountain community, the film focuses on an impending patriarchal crisis as Mr. Boi nears his death without a male heir to carry on the family name. The narrative revolves around Mr. Boi's quest to find a suitable bride for his disabled son, Maize, and the daughter's desire to marry but her adherence to tradition that places her brother's needs above hers. Although not much is discussed about the movie's broader context or themes beyond this immediate familial conflict, it appears to be a poignant drama about the struggles of preserving family honor in the face of adversity.
