On September 30, 2022, the fertility-themed comedy film "Happy" that was selected as the "Top Ten of the Year" of the French authoritative film magazine "Movie Manual" in 2020 was exclusively broadcast on the entire network of the streaming media playback platform "Happy Premiere" under Huanxi Media .
Based on controversial subjects, the film tells the story of a promising female pianist who was "scaught to get pregnant" by her husband who was overwhelmed by her father's love. The couple's personality changes during the process of childbirth, and the sudden change in "Dad to Mom" makes the film full of jokes.
Director Sophie LeTunar spans the three positions of acting, editor and director, and is good at discovering inspiration in life. Her work "Life Shared" was shortlisted for the 2010 Rotterdam International Film Festival Tiger Award. "Happy" is her second work to be shortlisted for the Rotterdam International Film Festival and is nominated for the 49th Rotterdam International Film Festival Big Screen Award.
The title of "Happiness" is itself a pun. The French word "énorme" can not only mean extraordinary, but also be understood as a huge pregnant belly in the allusion film. "Happy" is beyond the reach of the future" is also a popular niche film with dual attributes. It is not only a humorous dissolution of the struggle against the difficulties of fertility, but also a reflection on the mission of women's breeding.
From DINK to mother, independent women's magical pregnancy path is bittersweet
Claire is a world-famous pianist. Because of the busy schedule, she and her husband and agent Fred decided not to have children. After helping the pregnant woman deliver her baby once on the plane, Fred's inner fatherly love suddenly woke up. He secretly packed his wife's birth control pills and squatted on the toilet with the contraceptive stick, which eventually made his wife successfully pregnant.
Claire, who is usually careless, did not realize her husband's abnormality, but a series of changes after pregnancy were revealed to her body, including not only: gaining weight, swelling breasts, and exhaustion. Claire, who has been contraceptive for many years, believes that she has cancer or tumor, but the doctor clearly told her that she is a child.
The popular drama "The Son-in-law" and "The Rumored Chen Qianqian " attracts a lot of attention with the theme of "female master", but that is a story that covers the world after all. In "Happiness" Out of the Past", this gender reversal is applied to the real world. During pregnancy, her husband Fred took a fake pregnant belly to attend parent-child classes, studying various parenting knowledge, and even wanted to install fake breasts to breastfeed the mother for her newborn.
Reversely, his wife Claire is like a hand-off manager. As the delivery period approaches, the child has not been moved for a long time. She gave in and drank and ate cheese. When her husband saw it, he was furious and accused her of being so irresponsible. Infecting bacteria will make the child fool.
Gradually, Claire felt that her husband's focus was not on him, but on his uterus . After learning that he was "scamdled" to pregnant women, Claire was both sad and angry. In anger, she leaves her husband and learns to regain control of her body.
The first half of "Happiness" is a family comedy, while the tone of the second half of the movie turns to documentary. The process of Claire's painless childbirth in can be regarded as a fertility documentary. The film uses real medical staff and edits the production footage and plot invisible. The joy of the birth of the baby dilutes the absurdity created in the early stage of the film, and the film becomes gentle and sweet.
Is Claire a happy mother? Or is it a sad fertility container planned by the husband? The video leaves behind a series of meaningful questions. As a female director, Le Tuner keenly captured the passive position of women in family and society. Such delicacy is probably the reason why the film has won the audience's popularity at the 49th Rotterdam International Film Festival.
最 The birth of a woman is not just a maternal duty. The female director calls for a face-to-face pregnancy
Letunar, who created "Happiness" and hopeless", is already a mother of two children. She filmed this movie to tell the audience what it is like to give birth in a world without filters. Most of the female characters in the movie are erotic symbols, and romantic love movies always make fertility a little bit.
"I think for every woman, there are many times when you feel the terrible and unnatural side of having a child. We are fertile women, and this is not a simple and natural fact."
After the airing of the popular Japanese drama "Home on the Ramp", "widowed parenting" became a popular word. Compared with the accused irresponsible fathers, the husband Fred in the film obviously meets the requirements of a good husband in the secular sense. However, whether meticulous and caring care can dilute Fred's original sin to obtain the child by using deceptive means is still to be discussed.
In fact, the original intention of "Home on the Ramp" is to hope that through the image of "a mother tortured by parenting", the society cannot put the burden of raising a mother entirely on the mother. This is also vaguely mentioned in "Happiness" Out of the Past". The mother who gives birth to a child is not a fertility agent, and her health is important together with the fetus.
In the introduction to "Happiness" out of sight, the film is described as both a "disturbing film with toxic masculinity" and a comedy about a fusion of feminism and classical music. In Le Tuner's view, both Claire and Fred have grown up in this "pregnancy".
Looking at the news of "21-year-old single mother delivering food" and "Shanghai unmarried mothers fought for four years to obtain birth payments", we can see that society has been paying attention to the issue of female childbirth, reflecting and progressing. Thinking about the difficulties of contemporary women trapped in family and social roles is the voice-over of "Happiness" beyond relaxing entertainment, and it is also its true meaning.
