In the movie, Leo and Gabriel met in the same school and in the same class during a beautiful summer. This kind of encounter is simple and familiar. I have always believed that the aura is an important bond between people. Just like a broken-hearted person can always find the same kind as himself to open his heart, and a happy and carefree person can always find it. The same as a suitable playmate. Leo, who is alien to his classmates because of his blindness, and Gabriel, who has just transferred from another place, takes some time to adapt to normal school life, but the former takes longer, but a small eraser does not. Instantly narrowed the distance between each other. So friendship, ambiguity and love grew wildly.
Have you ever asked yourself this way, do you want to go back in time? Longing for the shortness of youth, but the answer is no. I remember being laughed at in elementary school by boys for not being able to straighten the middle finger and thinking that I was an alien. In junior high school, I was ridiculed by everyone for my slender eyes and short hair with bare ears. When I was in high school, I met a boy in the same class on the bus with heavy eye rims, and didn't even dare to make a straight look or say hello, but the mother on the side kept scolding himself. I know how much courage is needed to deal with normal people. Leo is the only person in the class who uses a blind typewriter and the only person who needs help from others to study and live normally. Maybe no one would like such a self? Even his parents too. They gave themselves life, but they were in deep pain because of their flaws, and they always wore sad and nervous expressions. Leo longed to be treated tenderly, but his parents were always nervously worried about this and that, and couldn't treat him as a normal person. Their shelter and cautiousness came from the experience and love of life, but in Leo's heart they longed for someone to appear, unlike everyone else, to get along with him seriously and normally. In this way, Gabriel appeared. Gabriel is sunny and kind. He takes Leo to the movies and tells him the interesting plot in the movie. Leo used Octavia's hearing and Gabriel's infectious description to watch the first movie in his life. On the night of the lunar eclipse, the two sneaked out of the house quietly and felt the moonless night on the empty lawn of the park. At home, Leo listened to brisk music other than a tragic symphony for the first time, and danced to an awkward rhythm.
Love sprouted in the hearts of the two boys, and it was fragile that made people afraid to approach. In the movie, Leo’s only female friend, Giwana’s feelings for two close boys, made Leo and Gabriel firm up their love. At the end of the movie, Gabriel bravely expressed his love to Leo. He said with a little humor in his sorrow: "Leo, if you steal a kiss from someone, how do you return it? So, I cried with joy. , Because of Gabriel, at the moment you fell in love with Leo, Leo’s warm heart had already left a room exclusively for you.
Leo finally learned to ride a bicycle, and they grew up joyously in the sun. For the person they want to be. I once saw a monologue written by a boy on the marriage dating website: Good love makes people grow. I hope that the true relationship will not be short and sad like the setting sun, but like the sunrise. Eternal and shining, our humanity, experience, soul and growth are nourished and enriched in this beautiful love.
In addition to the distance, we still have love close at hand.
