This is how grandma's home feels when I think of it as a child.
It seems that in my memory, I also call it Mamaw's house, not Grandpa's house.
I think it's probably because Mamaw is more integrated into our lives. Cooking, cleaning, nagging.
The whole film is trivial, without any big waves, but it always revolves around the discussion of life and death.
One of my favorite details is that when many went for a walk on the beach with the doctor's father and Atsushi, many of them deliberately took the old man's legs and feet in order to wait for that old man's inconvenience, but he had a strong self-esteem. He took out his phone and looked at it, so that the doctor's father would not notice that he was waiting for him. Atsushi, Liang Duo, and the doctor's father, these two father and son pairs, on the surface, are a gesture of rejecting each other thousands of miles away, but in their hearts, they are all learning to accept.
In the movie, the opening and final subtitles appear in the same picture, as if walking all the way and returning to the original point of origin.
Like a person's life.
