From humble beginnings and little education, he was imprisoned for robbery when he was young, and his wife left him. After being released from prison, he worked honestly at the garbage station, built a new family, and lived an ordinary and down-to-earth life. I bought a house of my own with my brother's disability allowance.
I could write dozens of sentences to describe his life, and halfway through the movie, I felt strongly touched by something. Right, it is the poor, the bottom of the society, the attitude towards life, the criteria for judging right and wrong. As long as a lowly man commutes to get off work on time and earns money to support his family, he can love his children in strange ways. He was forgiven when he complained about the dullness of life, cheating and having a child of his own. Wife and children fear being evicted from the house and homeless. Fear of losing the family's only source of income. Poor & inferior people have very low requirements for themselves, and there are reasonable reasons for indulging in self-motivation. The cost of making mistakes is low, and as long as he goes to work on time and earns a salary, then everything can be forgiven.
I can feel the helplessness of two sons who may be really talented, and their origins determine the love and recognition they will never get. Once resentment invades their body, it becomes part of the soul. Or sad or helpless, no matter if nothing or a small achievement, so what? Home is that house, familiar objects, with a new barrier, but full of memories that I dare not touch.
