More than 100 cases are supported! Revealing the Behind-the-scenes Creation of I Through the Storm

Special feature of 1905 film network Enter "domestic violence" in the search engine, and various cases, consequences and solutions will appear on the webpage.Once upon a time, the topic of domestic violence was like "in the room"bigLike "It is always avoided by people, but with the advancement of the times, more and more victims face this problem and show the incident to more people.What should we do in the face of only 0 domestic violence and countless domestic violence?

The film "I Through the Storm" or from the level of film and television works gives an answer. In 2019, Qin Haiyan, a screenwriter who once wrote the script "Finding You", suddenly emerged a sense of mission after helping his girlfriend to deal with the domestic violence. "I witnessed a woman who lives in the city and has certain cultural and economic abilities. In this process, she is weak, she is all over the body, and she will be glued together."

The hot topic that often appeared on the Internet in the past has now appeared close to her, and Qin Haiyan was shocked. So she decided to make this topic into a movie. "Before solving the problem, we must let everyone realize the existence of the problem."

Facing the lens of the 1905 film network, Qin Haiyan maintained the creator’s rationality. "We didn’t do this project for the sake of blogging, but we hope that everyone can continue to discuss it and let this topic continue."

Real case construction film

In the movie "I Through the Storm", Annabel Lee (Wang Yinglu), a trainee lawyer, became sick after learning about Min Xu (Tong Liya).

This scene comes from Qin Haiyan’s real experience. On the second day after dealing with the girlfriend incident, she and the team held a script meeting for another film. During the meeting, she talked to a producer about these things around her. "Unexpectedly, her first reaction was to throw up." After finishing, the other party told her very firmly that she must write it and be a director herself.

To this end, Qin Haiyan and his team started a large number of field investigations, from victims to lawyers and police officers, and investigated and interpreted more than 100 cases in all aspects as much as possible, and finally collected as many as 100,000 words of case details.

In the whole process, "it can be said that my cognition has been refreshed step by step".In the past, people would label those women with low education as more likely to tolerate domestic violence. However, Qin Haiyan’s survey found that many so-called intellectual women were caught in the whirlpool of domestic violence and became the silencers of the incident.

For example, there was a woman in the survey, and she was even the breadwinner of the family, but her husband still abused her, and it only cost 200 yuan to control her mind every month. If it exceeded, it might be a beating. "I realized that one of the cores of domestic violence is control. Everyone often questions why she doesn’t come out in such a situation. In fact, under this control, she has already produced inertia helplessness. "

In addition to the mental control from the abuser, traditional ethics and social pressure often become the key to most women’s silence. "A doctor committed suicide, and it was not until the autopsy that everyone discovered that she had been experiencing such an incident."

What surprised Qin Haiyan most was that domestic violence didn’t even happen in marriage. "In one case, the woman was divorced, but the man still tricked her into entering her house as a property or courier and violently attacked her."

And so on, vivid and physically disgusting cases abound, constantly refreshing Qin Haiyan’s cognition. "We picked all kinds of cases and got the character Min Xu."

In addition, real cases are the key to each character’s meridians in I Through the Storm.

In sorting out the relevant recordings and materials provided by anti-domestic violence organizations, Qin Haiyan found that one abuser was a doctor himself. He was gentle and gentle on weekdays and made small achievements in the workplace, but he has been using his professional knowledge to carry out more concealed domestic violence. "These have become symbols of Chen Jun, like the details of his violence with a towel, which are all in the file."

Qin Haiyan tried to express the core of anti-domestic violence in the most realistic way through the story "I Through the Storm", "Let it reach the audience as much as possible and let the audience empathize."Only after experiencing the storm, is it always bright and rainbow.

I don’t want any opposition between men and women.

In the whole creation, Qin Haiyan was deeply impressed by the fact that there were cases that were as painful as needles, and many lawyers spoke frankly about their helplessness.

In the process of rescue, many police officers or lawyers are most powerless not because of the difficulty of divorce, but because of the difficulty of helping each other get divorced, and the victim has returned to the family, perhaps because of the children or other reasons. "At this time, lawyers also have an alternative injury, which will be equally desperate and powerless."

Because of this, the film chose to enter the story from the perspective of young female lawyer Annabel Lee.

Sometimes, this seemingly extreme emotion is not understood. Even in the eyes of the outside world, people are extremely divided by gender to some extent. In Qin Haiyan’s original intention, "I am not trying to create a confrontation between men and women."

In the eyes of some people, "I Through the Storm" is a feminist film, and she also agrees with this definition. "It’s just that true feminism is definitely based on equal rights between the two sexes. Everyone respects each other and develops harmoniously, and everyone can gain personal value and the foundation of existing development."

She hopes that the audience can not only see the problem of domestic violence, but also explore the extension of other problems behind it, such as the most typical intergenerational problem in the story. Chen Jun’s domestic violence character comes entirely from seeing his father’s behavior towards his mother when he was a child, and his mother’s patience and spoil made him gradually lost.

Qin Haiyan ran a lot of roadshows, and an audience spoke after the screening, which impressed her deeply. "Min Xu, Chen Jun and even Annabel Lee may live in the definition and expectation of society and others, and they all need to finally find their true value."

Just as at the end of the film, Xu Jun made a final but still powerless cry to Chen Jun’s mother who was still trying her, "You should be the one who understands me best." They all had similar experiences, but made completely different choices.

The image and reality gradually opened up, and Qin Haiyan was surprised by the audience’s speech after each screening, because the victim of the film was willing to share his own experience or his parents’ experience. "It takes courage."

There are even many parents who take their children to the movies, obviously they are happy. "In fact, they look at this problem from a height beyond my expectation and feel that their families are very happy, but they still feel that they should let their children know this phenomenon. When they grow up, they should learn how to love and communicate and learn to protect themselves."

At the end of the movie "I Through the Storm", Xu Min solved the storm in a seemingly extreme way. "What she did was to hope that the next generation would not live in violence and fear, and that Niannian and Feifei could understand love and usher in a warm trend."

Now, when the film is released, Qin Haiyan looks back and looks at all kinds of things. The matter of girlfriends has already been solved, but there are still various domestic violence incidents in the market. "I especially hope that everyone can discuss it and let our topic extend."
