Poverty is not what we think most of the time. It is not a simple story about wealth, shelter, hunger and fullness. On the contrary, money is not the most important issue for those who are struggling. What they need more is opportunity, time and dignity and freedom in various senses. Without these, they can only fall into a suffocating cycle of death. Like the heroine's dream, they fall into quicksand, and the more they struggle, the more they fall. deep. But the question is, how did they get into quicksand, was it because they were not careful? Is it because you are not smart enough, not hard enough? Because they were born in quicksand. Abby was born in a family with a domestic violence father, the director only mentioned it casually, but we can already imagine how Abby grew up, what kind of fear her life was full of, and how she carried such a heavy burden Live and be a nurse who works more than ten hours a day. The little girl was like a repeat of her mother's childhood, as if all her energy was devoted to loving this home and enduring the pain it brought her. I can't help but think that when other people who were born on the ground tried their best to compete for resources, those in the quicksand could not escape the fate of being swallowed up with all their strength. Life is too cruel for them. The ending of the movie tells us, Nothing will get better, the cycle will go on like a genetic doom.
