The film tells the story of how a woman who lost her child after giving birth spontaneously recovered from her twisted mind and struggled to regain her normal mind.

On the issue of marriage, there is a high probability that the "match of the family" has its rationality. This is a common practice in ancient and modern China and foreign countries, and it is not a fact that anyone can easily change it with a wave of arms. Therefore, from the beginning of the film, it is destined that men and women of different classes will be different. The heroine's life together will not last long.

The point where the relationship between the male and female protagonists collapsed was the cruel fact that the baby they welcomed with joy was dying on the ground. The death of a baby is a key link in the whole film. The conflict between the heroine and her family, the conflict between the heroine and her spouse, the romance between the hero and the third person and her helpless departure from home, etc., all revolve around this link. Expand.

The whole film shows the figure of a broken bridge, and by explaining the origin of the broken bridge to a third person, the male protagonist finds out the root cause of the broken relationship between him and the female protagonist, which is caused by the joint force of "resonance" between the two parties, and It's not a one-sided reason; when the male lead wants to go to the world with a third person, the third person thinks for a moment and declines the male lead's idea. This is probably the intentional arrangement of the writer and director.

The heroine finally got out of the haze, faced the pain of losing a child calmly, let go of the midwife, and let go of herself and the hero. When welcoming the arrival of a new life, she left a suspense to the spectators: the heroine is at the end of the film. Who do you create a better life with? ☕️
