The courage to live anew

No matter how warm and dreamy the cherry blossoms are, they can’t conceal the pale, cruel and hardships of some people’s lives.

Both the male owner, the store manager and the female owner have a difficult past, sometimes because of their own faults affecting the entire life trajectory, sometimes it is an unfortunate experience. When life strikes you hard, some people are desperate because of this, and the heroine has a good craftsmanship. She made a delicious red bean dumpling. With this craft, she could open a shop on her own, but she was misunderstood and discriminated against because of leprosy. At such an age, she helped others to work. The hostess’s respect for the food reached a kind of anthropomorphism. The state of life reveals the spirit of the staff and the love of life. The sweetness of red beans and the comfort of food more or less cured the heroine and the relentless resistance and optimism of life. The sweetness of food diluted the bitterness of life, and the hero was a man. Unfortunately and fortunately, he met the heroine to heal him. A man was doing a job he didn't like because of his mistakes, depressed, decadent, dull, hopeless, and finally got the courage to regain life.

    People who are trapped by disease or worry are so lonely that they can only talk to the ingredients, but it cannot be said that they have not come into contact with the true spirit of nature because they treat and feel life with a serious attitude. People who feel that the themes of this film are scattered, probably can't accept that the main characters and the characters are different people, but this is actually a very common narrative mode, but the plot behind it is indeed a bit too rapid.

    The first half can get 4 stars, especially the scene where they boil bean paste in a small shop. Shu Xilin acts like what, and has almost become a god-level existence~ The story has been a bit off track since she left the dorayaki shop, and it is difficult to get the emotional change of the male protagonist. Well, the taste of clear sand, the taste of life.
