This is a low-key story with a low-key narrative. Throughout the film, the traces of the main line narrative are deliberately watered down, and the causal connection and context of the behavior are default. Merely in the flow of various plots, constantly remembering the unstoppable passing years. The sad or unacceptable love was overwhelmed with the advent of war and the new era, only Sonny, who was left behind because of his injuries, was detained in this small town that did not advance with the times.
