Parents are divorced, and single-parent children lock themselves in closed campus dorms, playing their favorite music. When the father finally finished a big list and asked his son to come out for a get-together, the son who missed the appointment shot six students on campus and finally committed suicide.
The sudden incident caused the media to be held accountable and his colleagues questioned. His father fell into deep self-doubt and self-blame, and finally chose to escape, quit his gold-collar job, sold his mansion, and lived in seclusion in a small boat in a remote lake. In the middle, doing the work of a painter, struggling to get by. The father tried to give up everything related to the child, but when faced with the choice of the child's remains, he couldn't bear it. He saw the record left by the child and decided to play it.
With the appearance of Q, the father seemed to see the child he had lost and awakened the fatherly love that had been dormant in his heart for a long time. When performing the music left by his children with Q, the father also found a new motivation for life. However, just when the band was invited to perform at a large concert, the ex-girlfriend of the killer child appeared, revealing the origin of the music they played, and all the band's longings vanished. Q disbanded the band, and his father gave up the guitar. He fell into deep thought again, and finally decided to accept the reality that the child was a killer. He found the owner of the guitar shop, told his inner secret, and went to the library where the crime happened, witnessing it with his own eyes. For the first time, tears of pain were left behind by the names of the victims of the shooting. He helped Q buy his favorite guitar, but couldn't afford it, and encouraged him to restart his band.
At the end of the movie, when the father played the song written by his son again, he finally got out of the shadow of his son being a killer. Before the performance, he admitted for the first time that he was the father of the murderer of the school shooting two years ago, and the murderer was his son.
The music in the movie is very beautiful, and just listening to the music can make watching the movie very enjoyable.
Although the school shooting incident was involved, there was no bloody picture from beginning to end.
