destiny

In the bloody reality, the birth environment of a person cannot be chosen, but the future path is determined by your choice. Some people in the film don't even have such a chance and can only sink into this hellish life! In my memory, a girl who was less than eight years old said such a sentence, life is sad and difficult. Unexpectedly, this sentence should have come from the mouth of a weather-beaten adult. While this girl should have enjoyed the childhood that a child should have, she saw in her eyes the helplessness that could not be changed for her destiny.
In the film, a boy cried and was dragged by a woman, who made a loud noise on the balcony, "You son of a bitch, I'm going to kill you." Another woman was wanton at the boy's mother. abuse. The mother does not appear in the film. And the boy was curling his legs and covering his face with his hands, hearing the endless humiliation of the prostitute to his mother who was also a prostitute. His heart is in hell. The film says that people here only love money. This red light district is full of sensuality, drug addiction, and robbery. This is the forgotten corner of the world. When the photographer tries to help the children escape from this hellish fate, what they get is ruthless rejection and discrimination from others. Discriminate against their children as sex workers and take them for blood tests, for fear that they are a group of HIV carriers. I appreciate the kindness, bravery, and decisiveness of the photographer. She tries her best to help every child! But in the end, the god of good fortune favored a few children, and the remaining children will repeat the mistakes of their ancestors! As said in the film, "Xiao Ni's grandmother is a prostitute, her grandmother is a prostitute, and her mother is also a prostitute." It is said that art comes from life, but reality is far more cruel than art. Looking at the innocent smiling faces of the children in the photo, behind it is a broken world. The world in the eyes of children has a little joy that children should have, but it also truly records everything that happens here.
At this moment, I just wish them to realize their dreams.
