Tears, the old man's optimism and happiness.
It tells the story of an old man in a corner who never expects the society to lower his head to see himself, but only wants to love life, freedom, and everything in the world. Through the warm relationship between people, I capture the beautiful moments in the riddled life. "We are here to see the world with our own eyes and appreciate the charm of it. Therefore, although we can't be anything, it is still meaningful to live."
The encounter and friendship of three generations, the taste of life of the elderly Dejiang has changed their understanding of the terrible world and the society they cannot integrate into.
"Even if we try hard not to make mistakes in life, sometimes we can't escape the misunderstandings of the world/We want to stay away from right and wrong and live our own lives, but sometimes we are hurt by the ignorance of society. At this time, we need to use our own wisdom."
"Sorrowful Beauty"
This world is indifferent, oppressive, imperfect, chaotic, cruel and unfair, but as long as you live, struggle, and love, it is worth it, and this world is worth it.
Grandma Dejiang loves everything, cherry blossoms, moon birds and red beans. No matter how cruel the world treats her, she is still kind and beautiful.
The old man made not only red bean stuffing, but small beans, very similar to our life. The red beans are soaked in water, rinsed, and boiled again. In this long process, their bitterness is discharged. This is not our life. After sufferings and twists and turns, the sweetness of life finally appears slowly. Coupled with strong and brave seasonings, this sweetness is more mellow. Although life is bitter, the aftertaste is still sweet.
The director once said that the film expresses the exchange and friendship between life and life, the ordinary happiness that moves people.
