I watched half of it on the plane, I didn't pay attention to the name of the movie at that time, and it took me a long time to find it when I came back. After watching it, the first half was very touching, the loneliness and helplessness of the little boy who got lost accidentally, and the hardships of finding his way home alone. , A mother's pain of losing two children suddenly, she was deeply attracted and moved. The second half of the story felt a bit broken, especially the entanglement of the male protagonist and the love story of the girlfriend's split and combined, which felt out of touch with the first half. , the story and narrative have taken a nosedive, which is a shame. After reading it, I found out that it is based on a true story. No matter when, home is an existence that cannot be separated.
