INDIA is an exotic mixing pot of iconic wildlife, secret locations, epic landscapes and colourful beauty. This iconic and landmark series is a celebration of India’s most spectacular locations and incredible wildlife. From the "home of snow" in the epic Himalayan Mountains we travel to the mighty River Ganges, lifeblood of India as it carves out its dramatic path across the subcontinent. We also reveal Thar, the “Great Indian Desert”. Its territory includes much of Rajasthan (“the desert state”), where the bleakness of its environment is juxtaposed with the striking colours of traditional Rajasthani dress and amazing wildlife spectacles Also featured is India's lost world of the north east, home to head hunting tribes, tiger infested forests, mountains not yet climbed, rivers waiting to be fished. And finally to the Western Ghats. This biodiversity hotspot is home to epic waterfalls, hill tribes, hidden caves and stunning wildlife.. Part 1: Thar Desert Sacred Sands Covering 200,000 square kilometres, India’s Thar Desert is one of the harshest places on the planet. Baking heat, desiccating winds and near permanent drought has earned this unforgiving land another name – “the region of death.” As we explore India’s great desert we unveil its hidden secrets, and ultimately shed light as to how the Thar has become the most crowded desert in the world. Part 2: Ganges River of Life The Ganges is the longest river in India. It flows from the glaciers of the world’s highest mountains, the Himalayas, to the largest bay in the world, the Bay of Bengal. Human pollution threatens to overwhelm the river, but somehow wild animals survive. Hindus believe that Ganges water has the power to purify, and it seems there is some scientific evidence to support this conviction: microscopic organisms actually eat bacteria that could cause disease, and uniquely high level levels of oxygen break down organic waste faster than any in other river. This self-cleaning property of Ganges water helps support some of the last remaining true wilderness in the world – the Sundarbans swamp. Here, India’s largest population of wild tigers have never learned to fear man, making them very dangerous neighbours. Part 3: Himalayas Surviving the Summits Outside Asia, no peak reaches above 7000 metres, but along the Himalayan range, over 100 mountains exceed this height by at least 200 metres, making it the tallest mountain range on the planet.As Earth meets the sky along this hostile terrain, powerful winds, sub-zero temperatures, and a lack of oxygen oppose virtually all forms of life, but remarkably, this immense geological feature somehow supports one of the largest and most diverse collections of creatures on the planet – including man. While the Himalayas rugged highlands offer little direct refuge to humans, in the shadow below, over a billion people in India rely on the mountains for survival. Part 4: Western Ghats Monsoon Mountains Stretching for a thousand miles along India’s west coast, the Western Ghats are a spine of mountains that lay claim to being one of the most bio-diverse places in the world. Mountains rear their heads into the path of monsoon clouds, intercepting rains and making the western slopes some of the wettest places in India. Tropical rainforests thrives, and explode with life. The Western Ghats hold the key to life across southern India. Rainwater harvested by the mountains washes down to the coast, feeding Kerala’s backwaters; huge rivers flow east across India’s dry interior, a lifeline to animals and people. Part 5: Indias Lost World Imagine a lost world – head hunting tribes, tiger-infested forests, unclimbed mountains, pristine rivers. Known as the Seven Sisters of India, there are seven relatively unexplored and isolated Indian states. What mysteries lie within this secretive land and why have they remained untouched for so long? North-east India is an anthropological paradise; there is no other place on Earth with so many different ethnic groups. The forest slopes are filled with mysterious tribes whose lives are dictated by the ebb and flow of the rain and the seasonal fruits of the forest. In these largely unexplored and isolated areas people scarcely known to the Western world continue a way of life steeped in ancient rituals.
这应该是《寻梦环游记》和《心灵奇旅》后又一强作了，而作为华人家庭更深有感触和能获得共鸣，这应该也是皮克斯对女性成长和性隐喻探讨最大胆和脑洞的一次了。主题嘛依然遵循“做自己”永恒不变的宗旨少了些许新鲜劲，但故事做得是真顺滑和有趣呀。
而我一直保持了红熊猫的样子 成为了家里的异类
PS：红墩墩是真可爱，老鼠家又可以卖一波周边了。。。╮(╯▽╰)╭
20220320 又名《四城临加国，五鼠闹多京》……感觉是北美东亚研究graduate student最爱用来写论文的那种片子。影片最核心的设定是把华裔的特定种族文化传统萌化为一只怪兽，同时这一主体悖论地受到被普遍认为不应属于亚裔的激动情绪影响，可能向完全失控的方向转化。这个巧思将女孩在多元文化环境中的成长与如何处理这种异质传统之间设置了矛盾。影片的结果必然是女孩和体内的怪物共存。巧思之外，这一家庭的生活还是显得有限抽离，不确定哪个华裔是这么活的，而事实上，父亲的角色也十分可疑。
前五十分钟看得人气不打一处来，在小熊猫从天空划过的那一刻和解了。
好可爱好想rua，动物化展示女性生理成长，小鲜肉和奶奶团的交叉还蛮有新意。主要是可能年纪大了，看皮克斯动画总觉得多动症很疲惫，第二幕就走神了
接受比抗拒更加需要勇气。Abby太太太太太可爱了吧！！！！！！！！
“我太厌倦追求完美了。我对她来说永远都不够好，对任何人都是。”不要再去迎合他人了，要与内心里可爱的小熊猫共存呀。（说起来当然很容易，虽然有点想到了自己。
毛绒绒的红熊猫，梅的毛衣，包子上的面粉，不愧是皮克斯
爱与包容，就是一个做自己的故事，简简单单，却又能直戳心底，温暖感动，这就是皮克斯的魔力！还好内地译名不是《熊猫总动员》
没想象中的那么好，但也可可爱爱，视听层面不上院线真的很可惜～
发生在多伦多的故事，啊令人怀念的加拿大。故事真的很让人共情，能让我想到好多。
或许这个故事并不完美，但我喜欢它。
相比成年人的苦难生活，你会发现电影里的环境和包容性是无法实现的，至少在我们这一代人之间。看着红毛熊猫如此的释放，反而让在现实生活中处处碰壁的我觉得难过。
不愧是你 皮克斯。断奶真的对父母和子女来说都是难事。其实我们都不用说对不起。我喜欢那只红色的小熊猫，我不会让它消失。
作为象征的红熊猫至少有两层内涵，分别是被压制和去价值化的情绪和被压抑的自由天性下的自我，作为儒家文化的两个标签也没啥错，但我挺不喜欢对立的刻板化呈现的，华裔的母亲必然是虎妈+控制狂母亲，被剥夺霸权性男性气质的华人男性父亲吊诡地拥有了关照孩子心灵的空间和可能，衬托母亲的形象更加可怖，自由做自己、自由表达自我则是美式teenager的标签。跟民族情绪没啥关系，我没啥这种认同，就是觉得这样呈现东亚文化下的亲子关系太顺拐太简化了，也完全不理解最后的和解如何达成；以及最终被释放的那部分自我也只是成为了被消费的景观符号，同时强调一种浅层次的“对愉悦感、自我奖赏和个人满足感的接纳”，这种消费主义的道德我觉得特别无聊。
海外华人视角既熟悉又陌生，吴珊卓的声音一出还是满脑子Cristina！亚裔女子世袭的家庭责任感有些太沉重，追星姐妹淘的友谊有点过于轻描淡写，但仍然几次泪奔，O-town的歌好听呀！上口不腻人！碧梨兄妹赛高！
窒息老妈与青春少女的共同成长。元素混搭，其中的中国元素融合得还行，好些地方甚至又变得日漫般中二。
命题作文般的创意，看似深刻的主题表现出来过于浅显。整片给我的所有感觉都很像《魔法满屋》。
挺喜欢的。些许神秘的道家元素和密法家庭相融合，奇幻的光怪陆离。青春期女孩对女人转变的向往，追星日常与审美观念的碰撞，正确的性教育问题和绝对强势的母女关系都融汇在里面。
