Saw "Desert Flower" last night. I feel deeply. This movie amplifies my heartache and emotion to the extreme. Heartache. Heartache what? Heartache On this huge earth, there are ideas and concepts that girls' genital organs are considered unclean; heartache is staged every day on this land where girls' genital organs are cut off; Atrocities are traditionally considered sacred in Africa and elsewhere. When the heroine Hua Lisi said this cruel "criminal law", I couldn't help pressing the pause button and went to Baidu to search for "circumcision". The text and video on the webpage blocked my brows like sticky glue, and the bloody red in front of me pierced my heart, which was extremely mournful. The so-called circumcision refers to the removal of the genitals between the legs of a woman (in the movie, a girl) and sewing it back up, leaving only a hole as large as the head of a match. When the woman was on her wedding night, the groom would cut the hole with a knife or blade to prove the girl was chaste. This means that a simple trip to the toilet is extremely difficult for women who have been circumcised, and it means that sex with men is not sexually pleasing for them, and some are just endless pain of being torn apart. At the same time, there is also a high risk of death due to dystocia when giving birth to a child. Once ignorant, I had never heard of this traditional, ancient and terrifying behavior, but when I learned about it, first of all, I was glad that I grew up in a happy and fair country. Ignorance of mind, eyes as dry as a scorched desert, this is the saddest image of the foolish African elder who instituted the "circumcision" system. In their eyes, women are tools for bearing children, and women cannot have their own thoughts and actions to judge, decide and implement. They think that women are the tools of the opposite sex to help men grow, and they use their one-sided ignorance that seems incomprehensible in our eyes to imprison local women, restrain their throats, and prevent them from speaking. Think about how desperate it would be to leave you alone in a vast, dry desert looking for a drop of clear water? Those sad people don't know that African women are an amazing pillar of support in every African family. They want to have children to continue the family blood, and they use their wisdom and labor to nourish the whole family. Without them, where would the black desert come from? Where did African civilization come from? Then why should such cruel abuse be imposed on them without justifiable reason? Really heartbreaking. The heartache cannot be erased, and the emotion is very deep. I was particularly moved by the story of Wallis growing up in the film. Her strength and tenacity is something I admire and admire very much. A little girl bravely travels thousands of miles across the desert just to escape the absurd reality of a 60-year-old man who is about to become her own groom. The escape from marriage is a good proof of her strong courage to be unwilling to fate. She can only speak Somali and left her hometown to live in London, England. Even if she doesn't speak the language, even if there is no one to help her sincerely, she still uses her own skills to learn English and try to find the key to the city of London. When she later needed to leave London, she again bravely chose not to go back, to stay, to stay and find more possibilities in life. God gave her a beautiful face and unique charm. Like I said, strength and tenacity eventually helped her become the world's supermodel, from a shepherdess gorgeous to a modern girl. It is indeed very gratifying that the real ugly duckling turns into a white swan, but how many folds and sorrows are there in this gratifying wave? Hua Lisi did not tell the world about her own pain, but she chose the great pain, she broke the pain of African female circumcision and poured into the world. She wants to use her small but great power to influence and change the fact that she has been abused herself, and it is her greatest wish to make circumcision disappear. How great is it not to let others bear the pain you have experienced? I was deeply moved. She is so beautiful, it makes my heart hurt and moved, just like the photographer Bole said, "You have a kind of beauty from the inside out." This kind of beauty is the most shocking. In the end, I just want to say, may no more women be whipped, may every girl be treated tenderly, and may the flowers growing in the cracked desert never wither. God gave her a beautiful face and unique charm. Like I said, strength and tenacity eventually helped her become the world's supermodel, from a shepherdess gorgeous to a modern girl.
