Human Resource, a movie from Dee Nak, who is asking, "Is the world still enough for the younger generation?"
This morning I turned on Netflix, looked for movies as usual, and found Human Resource in the new movie category, and I didn't read the reviews, didn't watch the spoils, and didn't know anything about the movies, so I immediately clicked.
For a while, I asked the next person, "Is this a movie?"
There's something so familiar, so familiar that you barely have to watch the credits, the silence, the hasty narrative rhythm, the ordinary dialogue but hide something underneath, including how the movie lets the audience sit with the characters without trying to rush them to their destination.
When I checked the name of the director, it was true, but while watching, I had a feeling that happened throughout the movie, and I thought other movies were more fun.
It doesn't mean that Human Resource is a bad movie, but compared to many stories, I feel that it's harder and obviously takes more patience.
Many times I feel like I'm waiting for something, waiting for the movie to answer, waiting for a turning point, waiting for a scene that brings the story forward, but the movie doesn't do that.
Strangely, while watching, I just noticed myself that when the silent scene happened, I was always waiting for the music, waiting for the movie to signal what it should feel like to be worried or sad or not, but Human Resource wouldn't do that. Many scenes left only the sound of the room, the sound of air conditioning, the sound of walking, or sometimes pure silence.
After finishing, I went to read the comments. I'm not surprised that people curse so hard, because if you look at the general audience, this movie is really boring.
It does not reward the audience along the way, as most movies do, no emotional scenes, no music, no vibes, and no clear conclusions that make it feel like everything has been answered.
But when I let the movie settle down for a while, I felt that what was stuck in my head wasn't about HR, but what was stuck in my head was that the characters were living between two states at once.
On one side, he's in charge of finding new employees into the organization; on the other, he's going to have a baby.
At first it seemed like a different story, but when you think again, it's "the same question."
We spent a few hours interviewing people and decided to accept them as part of the organization, not knowing if they could fit in here, whether they would be happy or how long they would last.
At the same time, we decided to create a new human being on Earth, and we didn't know what kind of place it was going to be.
What kind of quality of life will this child grow up to meet?
Will he deal with all the pressures, competition, insecurities and turmoil facing adults?
The more I thought, the more I felt that the movie didn't talk about HR, it was talking about the uncertainty of welcoming new people into a certain system.
Whether it's an organization or a society, the silence of movies acts like the most realistic real life, because real life doesn't have music to say that we should be sad or happy.
Real life doesn't have a conclusion at the end to know whether our decision is right or wrong. We can only keep walking without knowing the answer.
Like HR, which chooses people to work, like parents waiting for their children to be born, and like many people who still live in a world that sometimes asks if it's really enough for the next generation.
Even though it precipitated the idea of the movie, I insisted that if I chose it, I liked many of the previous movies of Dee Naval more, and I fully understood why so many people were bored with Human Resources.
However, I understand why there are other people who like it so much, because the movie doesn't care about trying to make people feel good, doesn't try to make people feel fun, and doesn't try to comfort anyone.
Human Resource, for me, is a strange movie in which it is not entertaining, takes us to see life, but takes life to put it in front of me and asks, "How long can you endure it?"
