How much love can be repeated

I don't know much about Canadian movies. The last one I watched was "A Happy Thing" three years ago. But both films feel eerily the same wild wilderness, making the characters seem even more isolated, or lonely. Like the three people in this movie, two moms and a son, make a wonderful family.
Die begins by saying that she would never consider that law, that she would never send her child to the hospital, and that she despises pessimistic people. At the outset, the film tries to highlight her vulgar grooming and demeanor, making audiences expect an inspiring story of an unusually strong mother, but it doesn't. Kyla seems to be the exact opposite of Die's mother, very orthodox and conservative, very shy and stuttering, and has a mysterious past. In her room, we see pictures of two children, but only her daughter is in the picture, and the other boy has blonde hair that looks like Steve. Her life was hopeless until she met this mother and son, and she had new hope for Steve's new return to school.
Steve's violence and mania are his fear and weakness. How much he wants to change the status quo and bring a good life to his mother, but he doesn't have so many ways. They became a team until Kyla showed up and he wanted to make his mom happy and proud of him.
Die is not an irresponsible mother. She works hard to find a job, and she believes that life will get better and better, but there are limits. All she can bear and maintain is the most basic kind of life, and in the face of subpoenas, she has reached her limit. She shouldn't have let Steve know that it was his fault that she was going to be with Paul, asking for Paul's help, causing Steve to kill himself. Her fault was that she let her son share too many things that he should not share.
Maybe it's because Kyla doesn't have to bear so many realistic material burdens, she can communicate with Steve more easily, and she can nurture his dreams. But if Steve's mother had always been Kyla, maybe he wouldn't be the kid either.
Motherhood is a difficult profession. Mothers love their children, but not love can make a mother. We may have had parents around us who didn't know how to be responsible for their children, so they were not responsible. A child is a dependent thing, not regarded as an independent soul with a future life. Of course, in this movie, you can't blame Die, what can she do?

    The character creation is quite a failure, and the relationships, dialogues, and behaviors are horribly contrived. In addition, how many times will those bluntly inserted soundtracks and small fresh slow motions come to climax? Life is already so hard, I won't praise other people's painful lives.

    God horse stuff. Inexplicable extreme emotional confrontation. Those who can't act must shout out all the lines. Apparently a teenage teen with a brain problem and a mother of a loser trying to get to the bigger picture.
