- "Dad, thank you for giving me a good birth"
- "Thank you for being Dad's daughter."
This is the most heartwarming and touching scene in the movie "The Gift of Room 7". Li Longjiu, a father with intellectual disability, although only 6 years old with an IQ, he knows how to love his daughter better than ordinary people. He couldn't remember the amount of social security he had to pay each month, but he clearly remembered his daughter's birth time to the minute. He doesn't care about his embarrassment that he can only eat bread for lunch, but he always thinks about buying his daughter's favorite beautiful girl's schoolbag. Moreover, it is precisely because of this schoolbag that he was innocently imprisoned and was wrongly accused of being a murderer. He said she was her angel, so why wasn't he her angel! Room No. 7 became warm and sweet because of the father and daughter who loved each other and depended on each other. From then on, the prison was no longer a prison, but another home.
This reminds me of another movie "Life is Beautiful", where a Jewish father and son are taken into a concentration camp, in order not to frighten his son, he lied to his son that it was a game, and even gave it back to his son before he was finally pulled and shot. Performed for the last time, allowing the son to escape the doom of being killed in the "game".
I don't want to talk about social class and rights, I just want to talk about sincere and pure emotion. The blood has made a family, so that human emotions have a destination. Among the emotions such as family affection, love, friendship, etc., only blood kinship exists naturally, and only blood kinship can choose to give up his own death in exchange for the life of his relatives at the first moment of death. Li Longjiu gave up the opportunity to defend himself before the final trial, only because the police chief threatened him that only if he died, his daughter could not be harmed. He knew what the director meant by saying this, and what it meant to admit his guilt, and he knew that he could give up anything, even his life, for his daughter.
"Meet Tuesday" says death ends life, but not emotional connection.
Li Longjiu gave up his life, but is forever linked to his daughter.
