The famous philosopher Hegel said, "What is realistic is reasonable, and what is reasonable is realistic." I like watching documentaries, and I often go to various video websites to search and see what documentaries I haven't seen yet. The reason why I like watching documentaries is probably because I can feel the truth in documentaries, touch the colorful society, and feel that every inch of light, everything, everyone and everything has its real meaning.
watching documentaries I like to watch the themes of travel, food and humanistic society, so the documentaries I recommend below are about such themes, and they belong to the program type, each of which has more than one episode. I will write another documentary about independent films after I finish sorting it out, haha.
The first documentary I want to promote is Detective Adventure Ray, which can be directly watched in Youku video. At present, it has more than 11 episodes. This is a documentary about global exploration, starting from the adventure of Inspector Lei, visiting lost historic sites and exploring the unsolved mysteries of mankind. Detective Lei restored a real world from the perspective of civilians in the first person by taking a selfie all the time. The difference between this film and other travel documentaries is that the places he goes to are not popular attractions, but some mysterious areas and places rarely reported abroad. As the name of the program suggests, this is an adventure-themed travel documentary. Another special feature of this documentary is that it is a self-directed self-portrait film by Inspector Lei himself. Unlike other films, he doesn't have a shooting team, and all the shooting is done by himself. Every time I watch the film, I am impressed by the content of the film, and I admire Inspector Lei for his courage and boldness.
The Traveler is now in its third season, and you can watch it on Youku. In April 217, Tencent's video "Our Journey" should be regarded as the fourth part of "Journey". This program is mainly about taking Zhang Xinyu (nicknamed 27) and Liang Hong (Zhang Xinyu's wife) and their team to the world for adventure. In the first season, I went to Somalia in the war, visited the place where the movie "Black Hawk Down" was made, and successfully camped in the extremely cold city of Oymyakan at minus 52 degrees Celsius. In the second season, they sailed a sailboat to the South Pole for a wedding. In the third season, they traveled through 16 countries in the Middle East, including Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq and Egypt, restoring a real Middle East for us and re-understanding this war-torn land with us. In the fourth quarter of 217, they joined Tencent Video to take a self-driving flight around the world. They will fly by car across five continents, three oceans and 23 countries, with a voyage of about 8, kilometers, realizing China people's first round-the-world flight on five continents, and China plane will also fly to the Vietnamese pole for the first time. I think watching their programs is like watching a challenge program, which will challenge the human will to the limit every time. The programs are true, unpretentious, full of challenges and unknowns.
The documentary Walker was watched on TV by chance when I was in high school. Later, when I was in college, I remembered this film, so I used the computer to catch up on all its programs. This program mainly focuses on walking and discovery, and talks about the local cultural customs from the photographer's point of view. This film is more like a travel diary, and the photographer records the characters and scenes that impress him at any time with images. The Traveler column is like a platform, in which many films can be taken out as good independent documentaries, such as Hitchhiking to Berlin, All the way to the South, Who Lends My Kitchen, Fuck Amazon, Doctors Without Borders, etc. The films allow the audience to touch the texture of life and feel a different life.
Life is nothing but daily necessities. Food is not only the satisfaction of taste buds, but also the healing of the soul. The main content of China on the Tip of the Tongue is the food ecology in various parts of China. Through various aspects of Chinese food, we can show the culture of rituals and ethics brought by food to China people's lives, get a glimpse of the unique ingredients in China and a series of elements related to food that constitute the unique temperament of China food, and understand the exquisiteness and long history of Chinese food culture. When I watch this film, I think of the greatness of the ordinary, the great rivers and mountains of the motherland, my hometown, and the hard work of my parents. It's hard to get a porridge and a meal, but if I watch it carefully in the middle of the night, I'll be hungry!
Because I'm from Fujian, and the source of "Taiwanese cuisine" should be "Fujian cuisine", watching this film will remind me of our Fujian cuisine. The narration of this film is also colloquial. I have never been to Taiwan Province, but I can feel the simple folk customs of Taiwan Province through this film. It talks about Taiwan Province cuisine from tribal game cooking, beef noodles, night market snacks, local delicacies brought from the mainland, seafood and Hakka food. In short, watch this film carefully in the middle of the night, and you will be hungry!
This is the first documentary in China that comprehensively explores the world tea culture. Tea is one of the most representative cultures in China. For thousands of years, tea culture has been passed down, experienced and transformed, giving off a different kind of brilliance and charm. The documentary visited the tea-producing areas in Yunnan, Fujian and Sichuan, and recorded how a small tender leaf was picked after the wind and rain, and was baked into a delicious dish through complicated processes and crafts. Tea brings a kind of peace to people. If you like tea culture and like tranquility, simplicity, simplicity and purity, this film can bring you a feeling.
vice mainly presents social problems, environmental problems and youth culture through very real shots. Because VICE originated in Canada, it was born as a magazine, took a street attitude and was full of real entertainment attitude. Therefore, in terms of material selection, VICE was very bold and biased towards mainstream topics, politics, society and environment.
"The Great Craftsman" is now in two seasons. In the first season, the camera is aimed at the craft life of 2 Asian craftsmen with great ingenuity, and the exquisite 2 artifacts and local cultural customs are displayed in the form of micro-records. In the second season, with the theme of "debut, oriental beauty", we focused on craftsmen such as Shu Jin, ancient paper, tenon and mortise, Song Yanmo, and paid more attention to cultural presentation and aesthetic expression. "The Great Craftsman" is like telling a traditional story, telling the craftsman spirit. In our fast-paced and industrially developed society, the traditional handicraft industry is gradually disappearing. The craftsmen stick to that traditional craft for ten years without commenting on the commercial components of the film, and the spirit of the craftsmen in the film, I think it is worth us to reflect on ourselves.
"Human Life" is a TV news documentary, which takes the hospital as the shooting origin, focuses on the major choices of both doctors and patients when they are facing illness and life-and-death test. Through panoramic documentary shooting, it captures the real scenes that ordinary audiences can't see, restores the real doctor-patient ecology, and humanizes the doctor-patient relationship, participation and discussion of the whole people. The film hopes to reflect the difficult progress of building a harmonious doctor-patient relationship during the period of social change by observing the hospital, which is a specimen of social contradictions, and to show a real world situation through empathy and goodwill expression. This is a very real documentary, which dares to put cases of treatment failure or even death into the lens. Doctors are a profession, not a savior. I remember a sentence: your relatives may give up on you, your lover may leave you, but your doctor is the one who wants you to live the most.
