Every journey of life has to be taken by yourself

If you bury the seed too deep,
it won't sprout on time.
Once it breaks through the ground
, the branches and leaves that grow will absorb more sunlight.
If someone picks the flower, the
plant will bloom again and give birth to more seeds

. Watch a movie alone and eat dinner alone.
A person walks home after being raped
A person paints
A person faces the pain of the past Through
every journey of life, all we have is ourselves. This part of Mel's journey started with the experience of being raped. Friends, parents, school, teachers, they couldn't understand her silence. She was speechless, she couldn't express her pain, she shut herself in the closet and screamed, finding an abandoned storage room to hide. I was moved that even in the most difficult times, she still did not give up. Drawing trees, all kinds of trees. Whatever it was, it was a symbolic concern.
She pays attention to her heart, struggles, tries to get out, repeatedly tries to figure out herself and others, and gets close to herself on her own path. Trying to tell everything to strangers, lying in a hospital bed trying to fall asleep, and dashing out of the hospital and into the sunlight outside. I don't think it was the art teacher or her parents and friends that "her new hero" gave her any courage to shine the sun into her heart. It is herself, everything is herself, all the painted trees, each one grows by the side of the road where she grows. Go to the raped place and see the tree that once stared desperately, looking up, it is green leaves, with sunshine and breeze.
She decided not to be silent anymore, after being silent for so long. It takes courage, and she talks to herself.
She handed in her final art class homework and told the truth. Leaning his head out the window, recalling his past self, the breeze was blowing, and the violin was melodious. It seems that she has returned to the starting point, if Huang Liang has a dream, but in fact she has come so far.
It is me. You can't deny your former self, they accompany you in your memories.
I was hit by certain clips and then also liked the soundtrack.

Speak quotes

  • Mr. Freeman: [to Melinda] Hey! You're the tree. Uh, you can eat lunch in here if you want. It's against school rules, but I'm kind of a rebel.

    [gives Melinda a sheet of paper]

    Mr. Freeman: Wow, uh. It's not a place mat. The rule is if you're gonna be in here, you need to be working, so choose your weapon.

    [puts some pencils in front of Melinda]

    Mr. Freeman: Do something, anything. Hey, does this inspire you?

    [points to the radio]

    [looks at the drawing]

    Mr. Freeman: Close your eyes. Just do it. I'm the teacher. Can you picture a tree? Any tree.

    [sees Melinda's eyebrows bend]

    Mr. Freeman: There it is. It's burned in your retina. You got it. Do it.

  • Andy Evans: Coming? Hello? Earth to Rachel! Alright.

    [gets back into his car]

    Andy Evans: Okay, what did I do this time? Hmm, tell me.

    Rachel Bruin: Remember when you asked me about Melinda Sordino? The girl in the art room. Why did you ask me if I was friends with her?

    Rachel Bruin: Do you know her? How do you know her?

    Andy Evans: [irritated] I was looking for you. Bitch!
