Reminds me of the detention and repatriation in our country. .

The world is not enough for one to be free to pursue the life he wants, and innate distinctions define a person and everything about him. This distinction is ubiquitous. The seemingly polite responses of whites are actually recognition of their own cultural superiority. Other races who are the same in the eyes of whites are also comparing skin color and economics.
There was a classmate whose family was living abroad. His father was sentenced to life imprisonment for being framed and implicated in the murder. The mother and son had no ability to change the result, and were deported back to China and never allowed to enter the country. Since then, the world is separated, and the living are like dead. This cruelty is actually the helplessness of fate. There are many grandfathers of lawyers who raised their children for 23 years and were sent back to China.
In the past, my country also had custody and repatriation. In order to avoid population movement, people who did not have an ID card on the street were arrested and sent back to their original places. Even if this is now abolished, disguised repatriation still exists. It is ironic that society does not allow people to make their own choices like rational people advocated by a free economy, and countries that advocate absolute freedom do not allow such freedom to happen.

    "Delicate, warm, tearful comedy without lack of appropriate sadness", "slowly devours the heart of the audience, bit by bit enticing people into the film's theme" - The New York Times. Everyone has an "American Dream" in their hearts, and the blurred American flag at the end is very pointy.

    Ronald Cole: I don't think so.

    Prof. Walter Vale: You don't think so? What kind of an answer is that?

    Ronald Cole: I'm sorry, sir. That's all the information that I have. Now, please step away from the window. You can contact I.C.E. if you have any further questions. The number's on the wall. Sir? Step away from the window, please. Sir. For the last time, step away... from the window.

    Prof. Walter Vale: [Walks up to the phone number on the wall, walks back to the window] You can't just take people away like that. Do you hear me? He was a good man, a good person. It's not fair! We are not just helpless children! He had a life! Do you hear me? I mean, do YOU hear ME? What's the matter with you?
