回复 :"Veteran experimental filmmakers Danielle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub helmed this unusual adaptation of a novel by Elio Vittorini. Focused on the triumphs and failures of a group of laborers and farm hands who pooled their resources to operate an alternative collective farm after the end of World War II, Operai, Contadini features a cast of 12 actors who read aloud from Vittorini's book for the duration of the film, either reciting from memory or using a clearly visible script. Hardly designed to be a crowd pleaser, Operai, Contadini proved to be controversial among the audiences for its showings at the 2001 Cannes Film Festival, where it was screened as part of the Directors' Fortnight series." ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide"The group makes up a primitive community which seeks to erase not only the distress created by the war but also the hardships of life and hunger, and to protect them from violence, misery and fear. Amid the ruins of this post-war period, the characters build and invent a rapport both in their professional and daily lives between themselves, the sexes, generations, diverse social and geographical origins, and antagonistic political camps.The group maintains a 'register', a kind of diary, as if it were entering the minutes of an inquiry or a trial." -Steve Grayson"my favorite Straub-Huillet films are Too Early, Too Late and Operai, contadini (2001), both color landscape films with especially acute senses of place as well as of nature in all its harsh beauty." - Jonathan Rosenbaum

回复 :正义的反法西斯联军和纳粹法西斯德军在撒哈拉沙漠为了一口干枯的水井作战。想想：两只军队为了一口干枯的水井兵戈相见、殊死搏斗。为什么呢？联军知道水井里面没有水，但是不能放弃那道防线。不然，德军会越过防线威胁到更多的联军。可是，联军经过轮战斗后只剩下了9个人，并且弹药缺乏，只是以一所沙漠中破旧的古迹清真寺做掩护。再看看德军，他们有精良的装备、充分的弹药，人数上占绝对优势，900人左右。虽然，他们缺乏水。但是，这个巨大的悬殊，1：100的战斗对抗！不禁让人胆颤。经过激烈的战斗，联军胜利了！只剩下了两个人。
