Reconciliation and Rebirth

I watched Jin Min's four animated films recently, and lamented how there are such awesome people in the world.

When I was watching a movie with the loudspeaker on, I watched it so heavily that my roommate listened to it and asked me if I was watching a comedy. I think it really reflects the tone of the movie. Jin Min's other films have some understanding before watching, only this one is completely blank, and it is also the most heart-broken. With exaggerated and witty style, he depicts a story of people struggling to see the light in a desperate world. Hana, one of the three-man squad of homeless people, is a male with a biological gender and a female with a psychological gender. The metaphor of this character is too strong, and the sense of tragedy in her body is too strong to write down. I love her very much. At the beginning of the story, when she was receiving relief from the church, she said, "Mary can have children as a virgin, why can't I". So on Christmas Eve they picked up a girl. She didn't hand the child over to the police because she wanted to find the child's parents and ask them why they lost their child, "If they really have a hard time, then I forgive them. In this way, I can forgive too. My parents are gone." But at the end of the story, the child returned to his parents, and the abandonment was a misunderstanding, and she didn't find the answer. But whether it still matters, I don't know. That child was called Qingzi, and she took the name.
