Call the broken traces the compromise and helplessness of reality

After reading some comments, I gradually understood this movie. Human power is limited after all, and often we can only see one side without considering the overall situation, but I always make this mistake. I only thought of rebuilding, but I didn't pay attention to break. It is estimated that I was misled by the Chinese name.

Will breaks the lives of two women, one is her wife, after the woman left her husband, met Will with a somewhat neurotic daughter, and the two rebuilt their family. As time went on, his wife became farther and farther away from him, and he rarely responded. Coupled with his daughter's neuroticism, Will felt that he was always outside the circle of his wife and daughter, so he entered the life of another woman, Amyra. . Amyra happens to be the mother of the Will Company thieves. With this woman, Will found what he wanted, the release of loneliness. But the kind Will is still no match for the cruelty of the facts, and Amela's son was discovered by the police. At the end of the film, the director still gave an explanation to the audience. Will took his wife to cover for Amyra and his son. In the end, Amyra also took the child to where she wanted to go, while Will’s life Also looks sunny.

There are many interesting places in the film. Will is an architect, he claims that changing a city is not simply to fill in green where it needs to be repaired, but to re-plan and subvert its original appearance, and deconstruction also means this, changing the existing model , messing it up, adding other elements, fuzzing and fragmenting; Amela is a tailor, and her job is to mend clothes for other people, and she does for Will. Of course, it cannot be said that she has repaired Will's life, but that she has achieved something that others cannot replace in the process. The key is Will's own changes. This man who is eager for truth finally smiled in the face of life. At first, it will be mistaken for love between the two of them, but in fact it is still blurred by reality. It can only be said that both of them found what they needed at the right time, and let go of each other when they needed it. Will still loves his wife, despite his neurotic daughter, and Amyra loves his son, despite her sacrifices. There are also a lot of blurry shots in the film, and there are also blurry backgrounds and unclear singing at the end of the film, but the music is very crisp. Maybe it's like a vague life where we lose our way and don't see the truth of it. We change our own trajectory in the change, and reassemble the broken pieces. Maybe there are so many traces, so let's call it the compromise and helplessness of life.
