happiness

There are too many feelings, but I can't sort them out for a while. Since the film review is wonderful, don't waste time.

Joshua, who is persistently looking for his father, clings to a beautiful dream: Father Jesus is a tall and burly man, and finding him means finding happiness.
Dora, who was thwarted by the hardships of life, is like a sharp knife that pierces bubbles: in the adult world, there is no such thing as a dream, and what comes next to hope must be unbearable despair.
But they searched together, like the two poles of life: innocence and old age, joy and sadness, led by a seemingly endless road to an unknown end. Dora and Joshua, who is the savior? Who is it that guides another person in the direction of a new life?

    I think what the director wants to pursue is not the father of the protagonist, the little boy, who has never met, nor the passion for life that the old woman dies. In that era of distress and confusion, Central Station is the epitome of Brazil as a whole. I think what the film wants to evoke should be the revitalization of the country.

    After doing half-life ignorant things at the station, Dora let herself go through a journey of spiritual rebirth after meeting Joshua.

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.
