As a teacher, he also said at the beginning that everyone always thinks that teachers will have a great influence on students, and even change their lives. However, Meredith's death told him that in fact everyone is so insignificant, who you think you can change, in fact, the depression of death is still powerless. When he faced the painful blow of death again, he went to the little girl, who could warm his heart, and their relationship was a kind of redemption for each other.
In fact, his life with the little girl was hopeless. The phone call basically told the audience that the little girl was HIV-positive. The shadow of his childhood lingered there, and he would keep changing schools. . . His self-positioning, which needs warmth and hope, and keeps a distance because of the cold, is always tossing between attachment and detachment. It is also a tug-of-war between the inner world and the real world. That's why I especially liked the passage from Camus at the beginning of the film, and it is also very relevant: and never have I felt so deeply at one and the same time so detached from myself and so present in the world.
