    Hannah is keen to listen and read aloud, and the stronger her yearning for the good things in the cultural world, the stronger her disgust and fear of her illiterate identity, which are two sides of the same emotion. This made her almost frantically embark on a path of maintaining and pursuing dignity, and she would not hesitate to lie and abandon her work and those who love her.

    I want, really not much

    I watched "Life and Death" and liked it very much. Talking to two respectable and trustworthy friends, one of them said to me with a smile: "Do you have such low requirements for movies?"
