All about the movie "Solstice" № 8

Therefore, when Christian "tries Maya" and starts screaming, the women pick up her cry, and this once again shows the coherence of the community (emotions are the same for everyone), and they also interpret in a peculiar way the long-standing ritual when everyone screamed along with the woman in labor during childbirth, so that evil spirits who can to move into a newborn, they couldn't figure out who exactly was giving birth. When Christian comes, one of the women even helps him by pushing his buttocks. This episode can be considered one of the funniest, to which the neighbors in the hall added oil: the laughter and moaning were incredible, at a certain point it seemed to me that they also fell under the hypnotic spell of the film and repeated the screams of the women. But no. It seemed so.

The final ritual is very beautifully shot, this action is mesmerizing with a combination of disgust and empathy, because the characters practically managed to convince me that this is a natural and important process for them, they do not see savagery and barbarism in it, as members of religious sects see deviations in their behavior (and religious people in general, you must agree). This topic can be developed very broadly: is burning a volunteer alive something terrible for those religious rituals that have deeply penetrated our society? Or does the worship of relics, the symbolic consumption of blood and flesh, indicate some kind of elitism compared to pagan rituals? Yes, murder is a violation from the point of view of the law, but if you look at it through the eyes of a resident, there are no deviations, only a tribute to ancient customs. They have been bypassed by the temptation and sins of large cities, they do not create all the horrors that people "from civilization" create. Everything they do has a logical and natural basis.

Therefore, when Dani, covered in flowers, full of awareness of what is happening, is faced with a choice of who to point to - a local resident who was chosen in the lottery, or her boyfriend, she makes a choice generated by a reassessment of values. And Christian is brought inside the temple, sewn into the body of a bear, also with a historically grounded ritual: bear sacrifice, which is called iyomante, took place among the ancient Japanese Ainu tribe.

The bear autopsy scene is revealing: a mentor teaches teenagers how to properly gut a carcass, which is vital for residents of a community that lives off the gifts of nature. When Christian, paralyzed and sewn into a hide, is brought into the temple, we see how he leads with his eyes. And we understand his terrible fate. It's both an honor, a punishment, and bullying. By the way, you can trace the reference in Christian's name. What is this, like an allusion to Christianity? Even bullying him.
