When I opened the film, I knew that one of the main characters was going to die. When Madio finished pouring flowers on the balcony and untying his shoelaces, he was vaguely afraid, wondering if he would jump on the balcony with his back and let his brain land on the ground, without any kindness and no chance.
He didn't.
He took a sip of wine and said, Happy New Year! Falling across the balcony.
At this point, he finally saw the confrontation he had always faced.
The four children of this family are idealistic and kind-hearted, but each has its own incarnation: Madio the antagonist, Nicola the listener, the guardian sister, and the controller sister.
Among them, Madio is the saddest. He believes that confrontation can solve all problems.
The quarrel of his parents made him want to give up and escape. With all A grades, he doesn't know how to reconcile with the world.
He gave up the exam, gave up the marriage, and did not save the girl in the mental hospital, let him give up believing. The face of the world is disgusting, and every step he takes, he is hurt.
The opposite of happiness is everything that belongs to him.
Madio, our beloved Madio, every one of his characters happens to see the ugliest side, and he is smart enough to discover the odious truth: the psychotic girl Zoe is abandoned by her selfish father; the students who threaten revolution are another group The thugs; the ignorance of the indifferent spectator; justice is in sight, the wealthy class crushes everything...
For him, love was like an unattainable dream. He used his younger brother's name and someone else's identity to contact the girl who made his heart move. In happiness, he completely denied himself.
So brave, why didn't he become a general as his friends predicted? How can a person who will not compromise or take advantage of the world go so far on the worldly road.
Everyone is a small cog in the big social machine. They belong to different institutions in peacetime and stand in different trenches in times of war. Conscientious, year after year, there is no way to solve a problem in another cog, no way to get justice that we have no right to do.
We can't guess, if that call goes through, will he usher in his redemption? Can he be a potbellied old man in peace?
After the death of Madio, the movie has been playing for a long time, crying and crying, crying for the jihadist's abandonment, crying for this self who doesn't know how to surrender
