complete freedom

To be honest, I don't understand this movie. But unexpectedly the whole viewing is very comfortable.

It is clear that the camera just follows a woman through life, work, and family, but unexpectedly, I was able to calm down and watch. It's as if just watching the heroine's busy life is just looking at a painting.

This kind of feeling is quite novel, because the heroine is only a middle-aged woman, even the walking posture and the wrinkles on her face, she does not constitute a beauty in my aesthetic system, but maybe a person who is full of energy has a charm of its own.

But what struck me most was when the heroine's husband confessed to her that he was cheating and was going to be with his lover.

She is sad, but also free and easy.

She said: "My husband left me, my mother died, and my children started their own families, and I felt completely free."

I was particularly shocked and then admired.

If I also encountered this dilemma when I was middle-aged, my career was low, my lover betrayed, and my relatives left, and I could still feel the freedom of life, then I would like this freedom very much.
