We all mistakenly think we can be who we want to be

We all make the mistake of thinking that we can be who we want to be. Short hair, firm eyes, green plasticine, gobbling up noodles when eating noodles, being gentle and considerate to her sister like a brother, or kissing Lisa. Michelle, oh his name is Laura.
This isn't a gay love movie, just gender-ambiguous childhood memories. At the beginning of the film, Michelle and her father were on a truck, and her father taught him to drive, which may be the real reason why Michelle became a tomboy. At an age when we don't have a complete understanding of personality and human nature, we usually have heroism, like the stalwart shoulders of our father, and the Electra. Michelle's mother can see from the end of the film that he did not take good care of Michelle. She bought Jenny a room full of plush, but Michelle's room was empty. So Michelle's preference for her father is definitely more than her love for her mother, even to the point of being obsessed.
All this is not wrong, until the appearance of the heroine Lisa, Lisa is a princess among a group of boys, the stars hold the moon, and Michelle in the past home is "boys are afraid of him, girls love him" . From the beginning of being integrated into the boys' team and then becoming the leader of the team, I have a picture of Michelle and Lisa walking in the front holding hands, and the boys behind them are helpless. It seemed like everything was going smoothly. The princess was with the prince, and Michelle was enjoying it, every kiss with Lisa, and the adoration of her sister Jenny.
However, it happened that Michelle became Laura. When Michelle was dragged by her mother in a blue petticoat to apologize, everything was so cruel, and all the fantasies were beaten back to the prototype. He was forced to go to Lisa, forced to admit the truth. A group of boys pushed Michelle down to a tree, and Lisa was still in her early days when they asked for verification. One boy said: If Michelle is a girl, would it be disgusting for you to kiss him, Lisa replied: Yes, disgusting.
The end of the story is like the beginning of the story. Lisa asked your name when we first met, Michelle. Lisa asked your name at the end, Laura.
As for love, I don't think it's called love. Lisa is very kind, she is willing to accept Laura who deceived her again, and forget the summer vacation she was deceived in the past. And Laura wants to get back the lost Lisa, he doesn't go out to play, just because he is afraid to face it. If the story could be stretched longer, I think Laura would definitely go to Lisa again. Not because of love, but because of not wanting to lose. Maybe each of us is Laura, wrongly thinking that we can be men instead of tonboys, thinking that we can do a lot of things in secret without being discovered.
The movie is good, small and fresh, and the plot is unforgettable. recommend
