Perhaps this is a film about feminism. The film focuses on women. We see and even feel Rui's tenacity and bravery for survival and responsibility. This is Rui's character and characteristics. If we think about Rui's past, we will find traces of Rui's character.
Rui's few relatives are richer than Rui's family, and the drug business allows them to survive proudly. When Rui was a child, it was estimated that their living conditions were similar to theirs, and they belonged to the most children in the Rui family. Rui's father loved them. Even though Rui was tough in front of people, she was ashamed and angry about what her father did, and she was not even sad about her father's death, she just wanted to clean up his mess, but Rui kept calling his father Dad, and she still wanted to find it. The support her father gave her when she was a child, the tears she shed when she found her father's body and grabbed his hands personally and couldn't bear to cut off his hands, vaguely full of residual love for her father. Although her father has never appeared, it cannot be ruled out that her father's role in the family has given Rui the character she has cultivated. It can be said that Rui's tenacity is not innate, nor is it suddenly created by the environment. The influence of her father on her, or education, coupled with Rui Ruili's wise vision. Rui knows how to teach her sister spelling and arithmetic, supervise their homework, and teach them how to use guns and other survival skills. It proves that Rui has received such an education since she was a child. It is very likely that these were cultivated by her father.
Finding out the truth is really cruel, and the situation and human actions are really cool, but Rui did not choose to know who killed her father in the end. His death paid for what he did, and she only needs to take good care of her mother and younger siblings and continue to guard her life. Rui's story has just begun, but it has already established a persistent attitude towards it, so it is worthy of admiration, not only from the perspective of women.
