How long can you do for love

There is no monologue in this cartoon, only the texture of ink and wash, and the light and smooth background music, but it also touches the depths of the viewer's heart, because no matter who you are, as long as you are still alive, you will inevitably have memories. The farther you go in your life, the deeper your memory will be. The film follows the deep dive of the old man layer by layer, and the dusty memories are also opened layer by layer. The two echo each other, which makes people admire their ingenious conception, and at the same time, they are deeply moved by the tenderness conveyed by the film.
Memories are like some objects that we ignore, most of the time they are shelved, hidden as if they do not exist. But at some point, when life hits a certain point, it's like an automatic switch that turns on your memory bank, and all the joys and pains of the past pour out and overwhelm you. The old man's pipe fell to the bottom of the water, which is such a switch, peeling off the old man's life memory layer by layer, and letting people see the old man's persistence in the house.
It is always easy to shout slogans of love, but it is difficult to keep silent for love. This is also the most touching part of the film. How long can you do for love? ! The protagonist sticks to it all his life. Every time the water floods his house, he keeps building it up. Some people may think that such insistence is a bit stupid, but it is this stupid insistence that is the most moving. How can I leave the house? ! This is the place where he has spent his life with the person he loves the most. Every corner and every object can find the corresponding story in the memory bank. When I saw the old man raising a glass alone and looking at his wife across the world at the bottom of the silent water, the tears could no longer stop. This should be a toast with joy and persistence, as if the old man is saying to his wife who is separated from life and death: How are you, I'm fine. Sometimes I think stupidly, if one day I can find someone who will stay with me for a lifetime, but I can't cross the bridge of Naihe hand in hand, who will be more cruel to leave this world first? The old man gave the best answer with his actions. Because he loves a person, he hopes that he can live for a long time, and because he loves a person, he would rather be cruelly left behind than himself. He fished alone, drank alone, and looked at photos alone, but he was full of memories, full of love, and full of perseverance, which was enough to support him all the way until the day he reunited with the person he loved the most.
