The whole film is very warm, the most lovable is the boy called "little boy" who has not grown tall. His persistence and longing in anticipation of his father's return, as well as his unbridled crying after knowing his father's death, was very moving. As an adult, I envy the little boy who simply believed the priest told him an old saying do 10 things and God will help to get his father back. Because many of the understandings in the adult world are unrealistic, impossible, and rational.

A little boy grew up one step slower than others since he was a child. Everyone in this city is shorter than him, and the role of the little boy's mirror projection is the Japanese Hashimoto. The director's arrangement can be described as meaningful. The situation and interpersonal relationship between these two people are surprisingly similar. Hashimoto, as a Japanese, is not only short but also hostile to the American white people, just like the situation of a little boy, without friends, being bullied and discriminated against. , but upheld his beliefs. Hashimoto said that he didn't believe in anything, but he believed in himself. The Japanese objects kept in his house showed his identification with his own identity and his country. Faith, a strong belief in self-existence, and at the moment when he was on the verge of death in the last hospital, he survived by spiritual belief. And the little boy, the protagonist in the film, he is small in stature, but extremely powerful, because his spiritual belief is enough to shake the earth, once arranged by the magician to move the soda bottle with his mind, and then "move" by coincidence A mountain range, his image is tall and sturdy in this city, all those who bully him no longer dare to bully him, the residents of the city have always turned a blind eye to the behavior of the little boy full of praise, admiration from the bottom of their hearts, this A pure and pure little boy, with what his father always taught him - with faith and will to accomplish an impossible task. With his resolute and resolute efforts without fear of gossip, without hesitation, and with his persistent persistence day after day, he faced the Pacific coast day after day and used "faith" to prevent war, and he did it.
