The heroine makes a living writing letters and, so to speak, a part of her life based on the love and hope of consuming people, and enjoys it. She doesn't care about the so-called child needing a father, and thinks it's pointless; she doesn't think it's any good for her to raise a child, she sells it. Real gold and silver, worry-free food and clothing is the true meaning of everyone's survival. Like a shot thief, no one will sympathize, like a child who has lost a mother, no one will care.
Perhaps it was the discovery of conscience, or the awakening of motherhood, the heroine rescued the child. As they travel together, they find their love. The heroine's love for the child is a natural result of motherhood, and her love for the truck herself is the natural result of desire; and the child needs a mature adult, especially a mature woman, to take the place of the dead mother, Their relationship of love from the heart keeps them going.
At the end of the film, the child finds his own home, and the heroine fulfills the responsibility of being a temporary mother. She chooses to leave, leaving the child a broken but hopeful home. And the heroine herself has experienced the warm experience of giving and receiving love in this process. She is no longer mercenary, no longer lonely, and her future will be changed because of her love.
For the country of Brazil, various problems arising from economic development are similar to those of China. With the great development of materials, people are more snobbish and indifferent, and the suspicion and hostility between people are getting deeper and deeper. And this leads to a multiplication of loneliness and fear for everyone. No matter how the times change, trust and love are eternal virtues and sentiments, they can lead everyone out of the predicament set by themselves, thereby changing the entire country.

    The beginning appealed to me, maybe because it fits my bad habit of peeping into other people's lives? But it was too long later, or was it because it aired so late that I lost my patience, or was it because I was bitten three times by mosquitoes that night? For whatever reason I lost patience.

Central Station quotes

  • Dora's Client: [dictating a letter with her son] Dear Jesus, You're the worst thing to happen to me. I'm writing because your son Josue asked me to. I told him you're worthless, and yet, he still wants to meet you.

  • Isadora: If you ever miss me, take a look at our little portrait. I say this because I fear that you'll forget me as well. I miss my father. I miss everything. Dora.
