David, now an old man, is still king of Israel. Among his sons, the ambitious Adonijah and the clever Solomon. The two young men are fierce rivals, since both are prospective heirs to the throne and only one can be successful. During a hunting expedition, Adonijah challenges his younger brother Solomon to a chariot race. While Solomon, though brave, still retains a modicum of caution, the daredevil Adonijah is eager to win at all costs -- and loses control of his chariot. Solomon takes the seriously injured Adonijah back to Jerusalem. On the way there they meet the attractive Abishag, who despite her youth is versed in the use of healing herbs. She actually succeeds in helping the prince. Adonijah falls in love with Abishag -- but Bathsheba arranges things so that she works for David, hoping that her youth, her beauty and her healing powers will soothe the old king's suffering. Several members of the influential priesthood and also the respected army general Joab, who served David loyally for many years, support Adonijah's claim to the throne-- even though David has still not made any decision with regard to a potential successor. The battle-experienced Joab regards Solomon as an indecisive weakling, under whose leadership the kingdom would soon fall apart. When the prophet Nathan finds out about Adonijah's conspiracy he informs Bathsheba and Solomon, who urge David to take immediate action. And so it comes to pass that preparations to anoint the future king of Israel are made both at the Spring of Enrogel, where Adonijah and his men are encamped, as well as in Jerusalem. The festive procession for Adonijah has already been assembled and the people enticed with delicious delicacies to cheer him on, when the news of Solomon's coronation reaches Enrogel. The people promptly acknowledge the will of King David and stream off to Jerusalem in their hordes to greet Solomon, their future ruler. Adonijah remains behind with a handful of loyal followers. He realizes that he has lost -- for the time being. Humbly he places his life in his brother's hands. Adonijah is forgiven on one condition: that he always remains loyal to his brother Solomon. The great King David is dead, and his son Solomon has succeeded him as the rightful ruler of Israel. Adonijah now has a request to make of Bathsheba: he wants to marry Abishag. Solomon hears about this seemingly innocent wish, and recognizes it as a renewed ploy on behalf of his brother to reclaim the throne -- Adonijah's marriage to the last woman to share King David's bed would strengthen his political position considerably. Solomon knows that he has to act quickly and decisively if he is to secure his own power. He has his brother Adonijah and the latter's closest associate Joab executed. After this radical decision, Solomon withdraws to present sacrifices. In a dream the Lord appears to him and grants him the fulfillment of a wish, whatever it may be. Solomon merely asks for wisdom -- in order to become a good ruler and judge. War with Egypt is looming. To arm his kingdom against the territorial ambitions of its powerful neighbors, Solomon not only introduces several reforms but also decides to marry the daughter of the pharaoh. The Egyptian princess does not remain Solomon's only wife, however: as time goes by the king marries numerous noble women from many different countries for political and economic reasons. In this way he preserves peace for his people, and creates great prosperity. By allowing the women to continue practicing their domestic customs and religious rituals in Jerusalem as well, he comes into regular conflict with the priesthood, who see the foreign religions as endangering Israel's sole covenant with the Lord. The wisdom granted to Solomon by God becomes fully evident when the king sits in judgment. One day two harlots each claim to be mother of the same baby. Solomon's decision seems utterly cruel: he says that the child should be cut in two so that each woman receives half. Solomon can now determine who the real mother is from her reaction: she will not allow her child to be harmed. Solomon hands the child back to its true mother amid cheers of approval. One of the most important tasks handed down to Solomon by his father David is building the great Temple to house the Ark of the Covenant. It has to be larger and more magnificent than all other temples in the world, and Solomon now sets about fulfilling his father's wish. He places Jeroboam in charge of the Israelite workers as chief overseer. Seven years later, the work is completed. The expensive construction materials have been brought from far-off lands, and the people of Israel have paid exceedingly high taxes without complaint in order to finance the construction work. The Ark of the Covenant can now finally be taken to the Temple in a triumphant procession. After so many years of wandering, the Israelites' most sacred possession now has a fixed home of its own. People stream to Jerusalem from across the entire country to celebrate the great day. Abishag, now married, comes too and brings her family. Solomon has decided to mingle among the people in disguise, and he and Abishag are overjoyed when they accidentally meet again after so many years. The Temple makes Jerusalem and its king famous throughout the world. Even the dark-skinned Queen of Sheba sets off with a large retinue to visit the wise and cultivated Solomon and admire his magnificent city. The admiration turns out to be mutual: Solomon, captivated by her beauty, falls deeply in love with her. The two of them have a child, Menelik, but one day the Queen of Sheba decides to leave. She does not want Menelik to be deprived of the regal dignity awaiting him in his home country. Solomon stays behind, with a heavy heart. The king has now achieved everything he set his heart on, but with the passing of the years the wise Solomon gradually becomes a melancholy, skeptical old man who regularly questions his very existence. Material things seem to represent the only reality for him. He also refuses to adopt any kind of steady policy, especially in religious matters. With his foreign wives, Solomon sacrifices to foreign gods, and this incurs the wrath of the priesthood. The loyal Jeroboam appeals to his king's conscience, but to no avail. During one of Solomon's sorties in disguise among his people, a simple farmer reminds him of the first of the Ten Commandments revealed by the Lord to Moses: "You shall have no other gods before me." At another decisive moment, God Himself speaks to Solomon and announces the punishment for his sinfulness: the kingdom will collapse after Solomon's death. The king has grown old and weary. He has lost touch with the people of Israel, who are suffering from heavy taxation and forced labor. Solomon has treated his long-standing companion Jeroboam, to whom he entrusted the administration of the northern tribes, with murderous anger ever since a prophet predicted the division of the kingdom to him. The king no longer has the strength to change things -- he just leaves them as they are. The consequences of this become clear shortly after his death. Solomon's son and successor Rehoboam treats the country's leaders with arrogance, and provokes the division of the kingdom into two parts: the only tribe still loyal to him is that of Judah, while all the others unite under Jeroboam. The prophecy has been fulfilled. The kingdom that Solomon received from his father David, and invested with such might and magnificence, is now divided.
#BJIFF 2021# 一种关于生命联结的超验影像
和一百多个小姑娘在电影院里看激情床戏 这是我从未设想过的场景 但高人去找发小学舞之后我竟然睡着了……我竟然对耽美动漫、小说都失去兴趣了吗！？
ED好听
原来这句话这么美好💕
弗兰马汀诺再一次以领袖的身份宣示了慢电影的姿态。他像梭罗一样告诉我们：工业向上，电影向下。到达洞穴时那快乐的手势和死亡到来时的平静交织，最终在云雾缭绕中听到那不知从何而来的声音，像是一种天启。慢电影最终是一种超验主义。
【BJIFF】伴着邻座的呼噜声看完，太特么难看了！
东谷准太“因为你我的世界鲜活起来。”
北影节每次都会看到的那种看了和没看一样的电影。。。探洞探到底与人生走到尽头相互踩点了，电影确实有种失去时间般的诗意，素描画很精致，但是除此之外，就觉得一无所有了
8.0/10.0。难得继《记忆》后再次发现一部展现大地脉搏的ASMR电影。不同于泰国导演自然超验式的静态感知，意大利人选择了超大风光广角下的动态长镜头，诠释了我个人对于2021年电影的标签总结：属于自然的存在主义——人的生命和自然的生命被解构后都是同一叙事。作者有意识地复现了现实，而非传统纪录片的拍摄现实。彼岸纽约、伦巴第大区米兰、高耸入云“Skyscraper”、盛装舞蹈男女、肯尼迪杂志肖像：这些现代符号要么被小镇顽童的嬉笑吵醒，要么沉睡于黑暗的洞穴内部燃烧殆尽。当镜头深入地壳的地表之下，观众开始密集接受自然环境音的冲击和大量表象元素的互文：牧羊人的吆喝、探险队员的呼喊、人类文明的篝火、探路用的余火、地下水的残留、垂死之际的滴水…黑暗和光线此起彼伏，如同脉搏，直达深处，探索殆尽，方才停息。
像是构建了一场人类与自然的装置艺术，洞穴里的光影设计和好几处视角切换都是大师手笔，对自然的探索和人世的无常构成超验般连接，最终化为沉沉雾霭。大银幕绝佳观影体验。
結尾歌詞『與你一起活下去的這個世界
就很喜欢耽美的地方，可以看到两个相互拥抱和治愈的灵魂。用最热情的西班牙舞蹈去表达自己的爱意，不用内敛，肆意地去散发魅力，然后狂热地在黑暗的小巷，昏黄的灯光下doi，再一起拥抱着迎接清晨的第一缕阳光(虽然不得不说有点伤身体)。
比《四次》好不少，敞开的洞像《世界的起源》，真理之路的终点是死亡。不过我看的时候一直在脑补乔·丹特的《惊异大奇航》……
人生像一场寻找答案的旅程，路上会有各式各样的阻碍和不同的地貌。面对未知我们总会去试图预测凶险。为了探究最终的答案，不仅需要有很强的backup，还需要经常往后看来时的路。不得不接受的是每个人的终点都一样，路径却可以大不相同，也有人中途放弃。终点之后又是新生，好奇不止，探索不止。
全片不以人或物为主角，而且广袤的自然，也许是某一种气，因此使用俯拍。而且拍摄难度奇高无比。
高含量跳舞内容和（不标准）西语都怪尴尬的 可是 还是好喜欢两位哦～ 人高对蠢太原来比我想象的还要重要诶 有被感动🥹
还行 看见大家剪的视频太激动了 激情找资源 哈哈哈
哈哈哈哈整篇透露出制作的贫穷。这个系列建议不要继续拍了。
真的很喜欢，没有什么纠结的剧情，只是两个人谈谈恋爱，克服一些困难。
不管情节还是对白都是两倍速顺便手机上打麻将也不会错过任何事的程度
