Captain
Fantastic (2016)
Producer- Matt Ross
The film
"Captain Fantastic" received the "Special View of the Cannes
Festival" award in the nomination "Best Director" and not
without reason. I don't know from where to start writing about this film. Captain
Fantastic is about hippie. Do you ever wonder how the hippie’s life changes
after the marriage and the birth of children? This film is one of more possible
variants of hippie’s life. This family lives in the forest, away from society
and imposed labels. The main purpose of the head of the family is to raise
children as kind and honest people. The
life without people isn’t a hindrance to development. They all study, speak
several languages, read and then analyze books, understand philosophy and
quantum physics, and most importantly they live in harmony, not only with
themselves, but also with nature.
The only downside is
that they are not adapted to society. And here it all begins when children go
out from the forest, fall in love with somebody, find out what the Internet and
social networks are. This is the real test for them, how will they change, what
will they become and what will they choose?
For me, this film is
permeated with kindness and a free spirit; it makes you think about the freedom
of the individual not only in society, but also in the family. It is difficult
to describe the feelings after this film, but they are definitely very warm. When
I think about it for long time, there is a desire to leave this mad city with your
loved one and to go somewhere in a deserted place, to build a house, to see
nature every day, to read a lot of books, to talk, to dance, to climb the mountains
and to forget what time and human fuss are.
