The few monologues at the beginning of the film are very appetizing.

To be an adult is to become free in a sense, to recognize the blood flowing in oneself and to know what one wants to inherit from history.

Although it is said that the career that India has inherited has anti-social attributes, the "freedom" she said is compared with the morality of not killing people. On the other hand, she is not free, because "flowers cannot choose their own color", people I can't choose what blood flows in my body, but when I am strongly aware of this unfreedom, I am free again in a sense.

Some people feel that childhood is carefree and has more freedom. Carefree
, so-called carefree, it is compared with those "big things" that adults worry about every day. But the little things you worry about as a child, the feeling of worrying is also real. Especially when India didn't know who she was in the previous 18 years, she has been living in vague contradictions, not knowing how to choose, or even whether she has the qualifications to choose.

To be an adult is to gain this freedom of choice, even if you still don't know how.
