From a narrative standpoint, it's almost a one-liner. But the advantage is that it is smooth enough, and the details are real and abundant, not vulgar.

The two scenes of eating at the beginning and driving to school create irresolvable conflicts and contradictions.

Although the contradiction and conflict have not been resolved until the end, we can feel the constant love behind the contradiction. This complex emotion is enough to have a common sense of growing up with everyone.

In addition, the form of confession, the prominence of close-ups, the sometimes flashing imaginary pictures, and the split feeling of the single-person composition all enrich the audio-visual experience at the right time. The appearance of auxiliary characters such as teachers, boyfriends, boyfriends and mothers also enriches the theme of parent-child relationship again and again.

Hubert and his mother are extremely successful & wonderful. The trivial daily life, the conflicts ignited again and again by the little things, and the muttered "Mother will die tomorrow", and the lonely look when I heard the news of my son from others, are delicate and rich.

What cannot be resolved is called fetters.
