'Isithembiso' Yindibaniselwano yeMfazwe, eyeMbali kunye nezothando

Beka ngexesha leMfazwe yokuQala yeHlabathi kunye nokwehla kobukhosi base-Ottoman, Isithembiso, Umxube we-epic wemfazwe, wembali kunye nothando oludwelisa izinto ezoyikisayo zokubulawa kwabantu baseArmenian okwenziwa ngabantu baseTurkey abakhohlakeleyo ayisiyiyo kanye into endinokuthi ngumlilo oqinisekileyo wokurhweba ngebhokisi yeofisi engasikelwanga mda. Inobude obudinayo obufuneka bunqunyulwe. Kodwa okona kubaluleke kakhulu, ikwanaso nesikhokelo somlawuli wombhali waseIreland owaziwayo uTerry George, owangqina naye Ihotele yaseRwanda ukuba angajongana nesihloko esitshabalalisayo sohlanga kunye neziphumo zemboniso bhanyabhanya. Isamente entle yongeza ukungaphumeleli kwipolishi.

Ngomnyaka we-1914, kwisiqingatha-saseTurkey, kwisiqingatha saseArmenian eTurkey, u-Oscar Isaac udlala noMichael Bogosian, umpofu ohluphekileyo kodwa onesiphiwo owenza amayeza ngamayeza kunye namahlumela, kodwa amaphupha okufunda amayeza anamhlanje eConstantinople (ngoku eyi-Istanbul, ukuba awazi). UMichael unamabhongo kodwa wophuke kangangokuba ubhatalela uhambo kunye nekhazi ukusuka kumtshato ocwangcisiweyo ukuya kwintombazana angayaziyo nengayithandiyo. Esixekweni, wenza abahlobo ababini abatsha-uChris (uChristian Bale), intatheli yemifanekiso yaseMelika u-gung-ho ukugubungela inkohlakalo yemfazwe ezayo, kunye nentombi yakhe uAna (intle, entle noCharlotte Le Bon), umntu waseArmenia onobuchule ophile iminyaka eParis. Eli trio linomtsalane lingena kulwalamano olunobungozi kwezothando kunye nokuxhalaba ngokwesini, kuphazanyiswa ngumkhosi waseTurkey okhulayo ojolise ekucimeni ngamandla ama-Armenia, kunye netyala likaMichael ngentombazana esekhaya exhasa izifundo zayo. Ifilimu ilandela uhambo olunzima lukaMichael lokubuyela kwidolophu yakowabo kunye nomtshato wakhe ongathandabuzekiyo, umsebenzi kaChris kwi-Associated Press obandakanya ukugubungela esinye sezona ziganeko zoyikekayo zokubulawa kwabantu kwifilimu, kunye nokuzinikezela kuka-Ana ekusindiseni ubomi njengoko ezixakekisa ekhusela iinkedama ezivaleleke kwimishini yamaProtestanti kwindawo yemfazwe. Njengokuba uMnu.George ejikeleza phakathi kwemilo enqamleze iinkwenkwezi yabathathu abakhangeleka bekhangeleka kakuhle ukufumana uthando, kunye nobundlongondlongo baseTurkey, kubandakanya neenzame zokuqokelela imigaqo-nkqubo yeinshurensi yobomi ekhutshwe ziinkampani zeinshurensi zaseArmenia, kuhlala kunembali kakhulu ukufunxa, iinkcukacha ezininzi kakhulu ukuba zingaqokeleleka, kwaye uninzi lwesiphumo sokudideka (Andizange ndiyiqonde ngokupheleleyo indima eyadlalwa ngamaJamani kugonyamelo lobuhlanga kunye nemfazwe yamakhaya, nangona intiyo yabo yama-Armenia ngokucacileyo isisandulela sentlekele yokuBulawa Kwabantu Ngeminyaka embalwa kamva.) Ukanti, uMnu. George umenzi wefilimu ukuba angathwalisi umthwalo kumbukeli ngedosi yezinyani ezixineneyo ukuba zingalandelwa. Uhlala usazi ukuba ngoobani abafana abalungileyo kunye nababi.

Okwangoku, ngokudibanisa imbali eninzi kwifilimu enye kwaye ubalisa ibali elinyanzelisayo, kwafuneka kuthathwe inkululeko ethile. Lumkiswa: abalinganiswa abaphambili, uMichael noAna, kunye neentsapho zabo ziyintsomi. U-Oscar Isaacs kunye noCharlotte LeBon banamandla amakhulu kwaye bayakholelwa ukuba bakwenza ukholelwe ngenye indlela. Umlingiswa kaChris Meyers odlalwa nguChristian Bale yindibaniselwano yeendaba ze-AP zangempela zexesha. Abanye abalinganiswa, kubandakanya nommeli wase-U.S. Owema e-Turks, umphathi wase-France ohlangule ulwandle ngeembacu ezingama-4,000 zaseArmenia, kunye nosodolophu waseArmenia owayekhokele ukungavumi, zonke ziyinyani. Zezona ziganeko ziphazamisayo, kubandakanya iinqanawa zokulwa zaseJamani, ukubanjwa kwabantu abaninzi, ukunyanzelwa kwamabanjwa aseArmenian eBerlin eJamani ukuya eBaghdad kaloliwe, kunye nemikhosi yokufa enqumla eMantla eSyria. Ukucoca ulwazi oluninzi oluyinyani ngelixa ugxile kulonxantathu wothando ophakathi kweenkwenkwezi ezintathu, kukhokelela kwifilimu ethi, ngokoluvo lwam, ngamanye amaxesha iyadinisa. Kodwa uTerry George uhlala engumlawuli endimthandayo, kwaye njengoko iimovie zihamba, ukuthembeka kunye nokubaluleka ISithembiso ayinakuguqulwa.
