Chinese title: Please Vote for Me
English title: Please Vote for Me
Country and region: China< /p>
Film type: Documentary
Released date: January 1, 2008
Film company: Steps International
Director: Weijun Chen
Starring: Primary school student
Plot
This film was shortlisted for the 2008 Oscar Best Documentary Feature Film section. "Please Vote for Me" should be considered a "Alien", even the director himself said: "This should be regarded as an unprecedented work."
What’s special about this film is that it starts from a small perspective, with a class of 51 children in Changqing Primary School in Wuhan being photographed. Chen Weijun said that his work is very special, with a strong story and more like a TV series. The stories, causes and consequences, and drama of this class were all truly captured by the two cameras, without even the need for editing.
Talking about the original intention of creating "Please Vote for Me", Chen Weijun believes that "children" are a global topic. Since becoming a father, he has often discussed with colleagues and friends around him, including with foreign friends. Easy to talk about children. Many people say that the only-child generation is a selfish generation, lacks a grateful attitude, and is indifferent to others and the collective. Therefore, Chen Weijun came to Wuhan Changqing No. 1 Primary School at the beginning of the new semester. This primary school was a school that launched quality education relatively early. He happened to meet this class and the class teacher had just changed. Everyone reached a consensus: through democracy The election method allows the children to elect their own squad leader to see the children's democracy and collective consciousness.
Chen Weijun believes that birth, old age, illness, death, love, and marriage are topics that people all over the world can understand, and are easier to understand by audiences from other regions and cultural backgrounds. If you shoot a subject that is too Chinese, it will be very difficult to disseminate it to audiences with different cultural backgrounds. If it's too Chinese and too personal, it won't go far. However, this time he was shortlisted, he did not "know yourself and know the enemy" and did not know the other shortlisted films. Because I am usually a person who focuses on creation and usually doesn’t pay attention to what others are taking pictures of. He said: "Looking around too much will affect your creation."
Chen Weijun spent three months "getting familiar" with the children and had a basic understanding of them. It took another month to film the entire election process, and the film was finally completed before the 2007 Spring Festival. During the conversation, he praised the children in the film more than once: "Changqing Primary School has high quality education requirements. These children are very active in thinking and get into the role very quickly. The filming went very smoothly."
People who have watched his documentary have different interpretations: politics, literature and art, childlike innocence, education... Chen Weijun smiled and said that this is the charm of documentaries. He hopes that when people watch this film, they will not over-interpret it into the deeper aspects of politics, and do not look at children from the perspective of adult political elections. The biggest feeling when filming this film is that the lively moral education of Changqing Primary School is beneficial to these children throughout their lives.
