Describe the question

If there are plugins that can achieve this, they can also be recommended.
I want to manage my local photos, where the photo names consist of many keywords. when i need to view them, I need to form a set with multiple keywords, but after much exploration, I still haven't found a way to achieve this.

Anything else?
