A brief introduction to the promised land beyond the cloud

The film is 80 minutes long.

Introduction of works

One day after class, I agreed to go to that place.

Looking forward to the tower standing at the other end of the border, loving a girl, teenagers began to make planes for these two things. However, she was isolated from the world and the teenager lived a depressed life. Finally, the boy made up his mind to fly this plane to his dream.

In 2002, The Voice of a Star made Makoto Shinkai, an unknown newcomer, shine brilliantly in the animation industry. This work, which was completed by Makoto Shinkai alone, immediately set the highest box office record in the short story cinema "Tolywood" and won a series of awards. It not only sold more than 60,000 DVDs in Japan, but also distributed in 65,438+06 countries. Makoto Shinkai's talent attracted worldwide attention.

This new work, Beyond the Cloud, the Promised Land, is also in charge of the original work, script, producer, photography, art and other projects by Makoto Shinkai himself, which has fully exerted his diverse talents. This time, the staff who fully supported the supervision behind the scenes partnered with Makoto Shinkai, who was also in charge of Tianmen, in the Voice of Stars, and the painting supervisor was Tian Zechao, who had worked with Makoto Shinkai in the Song of NHK. In addition, this time, a new art that used to be mainly responsible for live-action movies was discovered? The Danzhi craftsmen who painted and produced works as artists, which enhances the beauty of Makoto Shinkai's image. Following the last independent work "The Voice of the Stars", Makoto Shinkai once again challenged the totally different animation production methods of the studio team.

Makoto Shinkai's first novel Beyond the Cloud, the Agreed Place, you will be the witness of this "brand-new animation" that has never appeared in history. Youth that you once dreamed, lost and rediscovered in the past.

Only Makoto Shinkai can draw the light of youth here.

Story outline

On that distant day, we made an agreement that could not be fulfilled.

This is another postwar world, and Japan is ruled by the north and the south. A teenager living in Aomori, ruled by the US military? Boss Fujisawa and Takuya Shirakawa also have a good impression on their female classmate "Du Ze Zuo Li Yu". In addition to this girl, another thing that interests them is the mysterious giant tower that stands at the other end of the border separated by Tsugaru Strait in Hokkaido under the occupation of the federal state. In order to fly to the tower by themselves, the two men began to make small planes.

Zuo Youli, who is also fond of Hiroji, learned about their plan in a casual conversation with Tuoye, and it seems that he participated in this plan out of interest in Hiroji. After that, I made an agreement with them to fly to the tower together. But in the summer of their third day, Zuo Yuli suddenly disappeared from their world. Because things came too suddenly, they felt depressed and empty, and gradually gave up their dream plane. After graduation, Hiroji went to Tokyo to attend high school and was admitted to Aomori's high school. From then on, the two began to go their separate ways.

Three years later, by chance, Hao Ji learned that Zuo Youli had an unexplained illness and had been sleeping since that summer. Hiroji decided to find a way to wake Zuo Yuli from his lethargy, so he went to Rio Tinto and hoped that he could help. In order to wake up the sleeping princess, the two knights will approach the tower and the secrets of the world.

You want to save Zuo Yuli? Or save the world?

Can they arrive at the appointed place after class one day?

Makoto Shinkai

1973 was born in Nagano Prefecture and majored in China literature. After graduation, I worked in a game development company for 5 years, and now I am active as a professional video writer. She and Her Cat, published in 2000, was highly praised for its delicate inner description. In 2002, the work The Voice of the Stars was published in a completely digital way, and the popularity of Makoto Shinkai soared. Later, this work also won the 2 1 Excellence Award of Tokyo International Animation Exhibition in the New Century, the 6th Media Art Festival of the Culture Department, the 8th AMD Award [Best Director Award] and the 34th Xingyun Award of the Media Department? Art department and many other awards.

Fujisawa Hiroshi dubbing: Hidetaka Yoshioka

The hero of this work, a cheerful and simple boy, has a crush on Zuo Yuli. That summer, Zuo Yuli's sudden departure gave him a heavy blow, which not only directly ended their plan to make a plane, but also began to become introverted and closed after entering high school. In distant Tokyo, I feel extremely lonely. In the next three years, he often inexplicably entered Zuo Yuli's dream, and finally got the letter written by Zuo Yuli after she was hospitalized, only to learn about her situation. In order to wake Zuo Yuli up, he tried his best to make the small plane take off successfully and take Zuo Yuli across the border to the appointed place.

Shirakawa also voiced: Masato Hagiwara.

Hiroji's good friend also has a crush on Zuo Yuli. Although gentle, but the inner world is very complicated, giving people a little precocious feeling. After entering high school, he concentrated on studying the "giant towers" in military facilities. I was once troubled by the contradiction between saving Sasuke Yuri and saving the world, but in the end I couldn't let go of my previous agreement. I went back to Aomori with Hiroshi, completed the flying machine, and watched Hiroshi and Sasuke Yuri fly to the tower together, eventually destroying it.

Ze Dutoiu Li dubbing: Nanri Yuuka

The heroine of this work, in junior high school, was a beautiful girl who was full of energy and studied well. Hiroji secretly loves himself, but he also has a good impression on him. During the holiday, I learned about the plans of Haoji and Tuoye, and made an appointment with them to fly to the Alliance Tower. She often dreams of other worlds (about the tower, which is always repeated). Finally, she was troubled by dreams in the third grade of junior high school and transferred from Aomori to Tokyo (in fact, she was directly transferred to a hospital in Tokyo, and fell into a dream for three years after the first two months). Her dreams with Hiroshi often intersect, and she really felt her yearning for him in her dreams. At the end of the film, she finally wakes up and wants to convey her thoughts about Hiroshi to him, but the contents of her dream are finally forgotten. Even so, "it doesn't matter, I have woken up from my dream, so I can start all over again" (Hao)

Some introductions to the background of the story

The year when it happened.

Suppose it was after the split between north and south of Japan (not a historical event). Hokkaido in the north is under the control of the alliance and the south is under the joint control of the United States and Japan. When our three protagonists were teenagers, they lived in Aomori, Japan, which was controlled by the United States not far from Hokkaido.

tower

Equipment used in the north to study parallel worlds. It is also considered as a weapon. It created a parallel world, and its information was passed on to Zuo Yuli. Make the parallel world enter Zuo Yuli's dream without devouring the distant land around the tower. On several occasions, Zuo Yuli almost woke up, and at the same time, the space around the tower showed a trend of being swallowed up. This is why Rio Tinto is also caught in the contradiction between saving Sasuke and saving the world. After the civil war, the south first wanted to destroy the tower, and Hiroji and Tado, who wanted to save Sasuke, also undertook this task. When Zuo Yuli woke up from his dream, Haoji destroyed the appointed place with missiles. "Even if there is no agreed place in the world, our life should start from now" (Hao)

parallel worlds

It's not completely ridiculous. Derived from a non-mainstream statement in quantum mechanics. Copenhagen school believes that when a quantum system is observed, the wave function will collapse. In contrast, the parallel world theory is the simultaneous generation of a series of parallel worlds, rather than the wave function collapse theory. Of course, the parallel world here is really a different concept from ordinary people, including the parallel world mentioned in this film. In fact, it is a misunderstanding of physics by ordinary people. (Of course it doesn't matter.)

novel

Mention two novels. Kanou Arata wrote a novel based on a film, not an official novel. It can be considered as a fan's work, but the tone and text are more consistent with the original work, which is a good work. The controversy of the novel lies in the fact that in the end, Zuo Yuli left him to find his lost three years (six years in this article, because he had lived with Hao Ji for three years) in order not to be too arrogant. Although some people in the film think it implies that the two are not together later, there is actually no clear statement. And I don't think there is sufficient reason for this suggestion (of course, the possibility exists). So the comparison between the two is unacceptable to many readers.

Personally, I think the problem with the ending of the novel is not that it is too depressing (and the sad ending is not unacceptable). But this ending lacks too much explanation, which is abrupt and really insufficient. It seems that it was written simply to write a sad ending.

The sunset glow gradually condenses into blue sky, the color of white clouds in distant days.

ぁせたににじむぃぃぁののぃろ

There is a pain hidden in my heart that no one knows.

Who is in pain? Who is in pain?

All the words I used up are gone.

I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.

Work hard every day, and now you still warm me.

なくすどのでもきみはをぁためてる

Your voice, your shadow, light.

きみのこぇきみのかたちらした.

If my voice can be realized, I hope it can be delivered to you somewhere.

かなぅならのこぇどこかのきみとどくよ

I am alive.

I am a servant. I am a student.

The sound of tracks disappearing under the scorching sun

The difference between day and night is しにけたレルからくぉとくののこ.

The other side of the cloud is still the appointed place.

ぁののむこぅでものののぁる でののる のののる のる のの 12

I don't know when loneliness haunts my uneasy heart.

ぃつからかをみきしむ.

I must have lost you gradually in the past time.

After the time limit, you win, win, win, win, win.

Your hair, the sky and the melting world of clouds are full of mystery.

きみのとかしたにちて World secret.

Your voice, gentle fingers and windy skin.

きみのこぇやさしぃぅける muscle.

Become strong inside

I hope my song can be conveyed to you somewhere.

Wish you all the best. Wish you all the best.

I am alive.

I am a servant. I am a student.

Your voice, your shadow, light.

If it can be realized, I will be gentle and strong even if I am separated from the two places.
