Based on New York Times’ best-selling novel. After experiencing the unspeakable trauma of the summer vacation, Melinda chose to enter high school in silence. In the struggle with school, friends and family, she told her terrible experience and why she chose to be isolated.
Melinda's silence originated from being raped by a boy at a junior high school party, so she chose to bear it all by herself, away from the crowd and away from the hustle and bustle. Anyone seems indifferent to anything, doesn't speak, doesn't stand up, doesn't speak. Despite the misunderstanding of her parents, the spurn of her friends, and the slander of her teacher, she still chose to face everything in silence. The reason she didn't speak was because when she wanted to talk, she couldn't find anyone to listen. Friends and parents didn't try to communicate with her. Until one day, she met an art teacher, and he asked her to use her imagination and brushes to draw a tree, and it took a year to draw the tree. She began to find an exit.
Painting gave her a way to express and vent her emotions, the care and understanding of teachers, the care of her father and mother, the friendliness of classmates, and the things she experienced later made her slowly walk out of the shadows.
This is actually a story of self-salvation. Although Kristen didn't have a few words in it, she could see her inner struggle
