The movie is switched back and forth between the two homes, and the lives of the four people unfold separately and intersectingly.
1. About the father. The typical classist, at least the principle, can be seen everywhere in life (professors, famous doctors and other people with so-called prominent status), and can maintain their perfect state at any time and cannot relax. (Tell the child that the reason for the divorce is that the mother had an affair. Tell the child what is good and what is not good.) Another point is that everyone is talking about the so-called professional field.
2. About the youngest son. I think this paragraph can completely construct another story. He is standing in front of the window, he is looking in the mirror, he is looking at his parents eagerly, and he has strange and serious questions. In fact, after knowing that his mother had an affair, he began to hope to get answers about this matter from his parents, and he formed an established understanding that the impulse of sexual consciousness or the need for imitation was just met by imagination, specific to condoms, semen, and genitals. Photo. The original stable family life was broken. Facing the moment of loneliness, the backing behind him was no longer stable. Only his mother's affair made him eager to understand.
