The film "The Three Kings' Visit" tells the story of the three Kings coming to pay homage to the birth of Jesus. However, the movie does not sing the praises of this story but rather describes it in a very flat way. The three Kings are just ordinary people. Most of the time, it depicts their arduous search for the birthplace of Jesus and the difficulties they encounter. The greatest difficulty is getting lost and finding the way in the mountains and forests. Among the many rising star directors in recent years, Albert Serra, a Catalan director from Spain, is considered one of the more controversial ones. Because his films are so simple, even crude, even though many people highly praise them (for instance, the French "Film Notes" once selected the director's previous "Honour of the Knights" (Don Quixote) [2006] as the seventh best film of 2007), However, some people question that he is merely taking advantage of the current trend of slow-paced long shots in art films to create mystery and produce new clothes for the king one after another.[Collapse]
