I like the calm attitude of the Japanese in dealing with this kind of thing. If it is a domestic film, will there be a lot of screaming and crying?
The reason why the child was held wrong was because a nurse was jealous of the happiness of the Nonomiya family and felt that his wife lived in a high-end delivery room, he was a well-known corporate executive, and she herself was at a low point in her life, so she deliberately took their child away. It was exchanged with the Saiki family, a plumber whose status and status were different from theirs, and wanted them to experience the pain of life too. This reason sounds really infuriating, but it is so close to reality. Many people in life will have such a mentality. Seeing others live well and have a good status and status, but they lack food and clothing, the curse in their hearts is like Overwhelming.
Children who grow up in elite families must learn the piano, dress like a little gentleman, and usually speak and behave gracefully and appropriately. For children who are naturally active and casual, such restraint is obviously painful. The two children, Keitao and Liu Qing, didn't like to live in the Nonomiya house, they both liked the commoner family who played with the children all day and didn't need to learn arts and etiquette. This seems to be more important for children's growth and happiness, and if this continues until they grow up, what will their lives be like? Is it better to be a social elite, or to be a commoner like a plumber?
The director of this film not only wants to show two different family atmospheres, he also wants to express that the growth of children needs the company of the father. Maybe this is what the director wants to tell the audience the most!
