the rushing heroine
Aerial photography captures a mountain surface that resembles the surface of the moon. A herd of horses galloping while raising a cloud of dust. Horses, horses, horses running down the slope and up the slope at breakneck speed. The Cessna plane repeatedly flies dangerously low. Nasreddin, Mamlakat's (Chulpan Khamatova) brother, runs around the village with his arms outstretched like the wings of a fighter plane. Nasreddin is suffering from the aftereffects of the Afghan war. Mamurakat always protects his brother, who is ridiculed by the villagers. Mamurakat is a family-oriented girl.
Everything about the movie ``Luna Papa'' (1999) can be said to be decided at the moment when the brother and sister begin their pantomime of driving a vehicle. The brother and sister transform into "machines" flying through Tajikistan. Tragedy in one wing. Comedy in the other feather. Mummrakat spreads his wings wide and dives into the whirlpool of the story. The heroine wears a beautiful costume like a fairy tale princess and runs while raising dust. This is the birth of a luminous heroine named Mamura Kat. She dances around on the hood. She spreads her arms, not her legs, on the delivery table. Like spreading your wings. This heroine image is forever new. And it's incredibly cute.
Mamlakat's family is surrounded by the villagers' heartless gaze. There appears to be no hope for Mamlakat in this land any longer. However, despite the tragic situation no matter how you look at it, the work ``Luna Papa'' is full of profound brightness. Light floods every corner of the screen. A luminescent material called Mamurakat continues to illuminate the movie and the audience with its cheerful light. Every time his body collides with something and is thrown off and driven into a corner, the intensity of Mummrakat's light increases. Mamura cut like a lump of energy. Chulpan Khamatova's acting has an absolute quality that only she could perform at this time.
