The movie uses the ups and downs of a small family to reflect the current situation of the big world. The
unemployed dad looks cowardly and stupid after being hit. Men’s stupidity often comes from dignity Standing in line to receive alms from others, and unwilling to do a so-called indecent job. He even vented his anger on his own children, just for his dignity as a father. Under his wife's rebuke, "it's better to throw away your little dignity", Dad became a cleaner in a department store. But he didn't lose all his dignity, he threw the stack of money he picked up into the lost and found box, congratulations!
My mother is a full-time housewife and a mature woman. Women are always stronger than men in the face of setbacks, but this strength is ruthless here. Mom had long known that Dad pretended to go to work every day, but he did not expose him. It was not so much to take care of his face, but to say that as long as the husband paid for the family every month, she did not care what he did outside. Never give an unemployed husband a little encouragement. But women also have weaknesses, and women can't stand loneliness, especially after the eldest son joined the army, the mother's life is more depressing. But women are also realistic. After experiencing a short derailment, crying and venting, they recovered immediately.
The eldest son is in his prime, full of ambition and eager to prove his ideas with his actions. He takes the responsibility of finding happiness for this family and travels far away.
The second son is still young, but he is pure and kind. In the face of the poor adults around him, he does not even have the strength to escape, but his musical talent unexpectedly brings hope to the family.
Where is the hope of this world? It doesn't matter if we haven't found it yet, we'll talk about it while we live, shall we?
This movie taught me that when we face setbacks, we need to be restrained and let go of what should be let go. He gritted his teeth and endured bruises all over his body, but his spirit stood firm.
