I thought it was a nature documentary like the pulsation of the earth, but after watching it for a while, it was not.
Against the current background, seeing the photos of those refugees in Rwanda is a kind of sadness that is indescribable.
A lot of people say that a job like a counselor, with so much dark and painful stuff, how can they take it. A doctor's job is like that. This photographer's video of Rwandan refugees is not a pain he can't bear. A few days ago, I saw a broadcast saying that a volunteer from Wuhan was dealing with various supplies. He was exposed to a lot of dark things, and he couldn't get out and wanted to commit suicide. Zhang Chunru, the man who recorded the Nanjing Massacre, seems to have committed suicide for the same reason.
Sure enough, the photographer got sick after Rwanda, his soul was sick. People shouldn't live like that, and people can't bear so much suffering.
Fortunately, he started planting trees. Then turn to photograph nature, animals, and no longer do social documentary to photography. Planting a sapling, watching the tree grow up slowly, and the spring eye reappears, this is hope and healing for him.
I even want to plant trees, stay away from the world, and only be with the land, trees, flowers, plants, insects, and fish.
