In the film, there are three close-ups of feet, one is when a family seeking help was killed, a pair of small feet exposed by a child wrapped in a quilt, and flies bite on it from time to time; the second is evidence in court. Among the civilians killed by the bombing, the child’s feet were broken; the third time was the male protagonist covering the quilt for the elder son, but the quilt’s small feet were still exposed.
After seeing his son's little feet exposed under the quilt, the protagonist was sluggish for a while. Compared to thinking of the two feet before...whether directly or indirectly, they were caused by the protagonist.
At this time, I remembered the scene when the male protagonist was persuading the commoner father to seek help. The male protagonist said that I have three children and I understand your situation. You want us to help you, you have to go home. The civilian father said that your child’s life is not in danger, and if my child returns home, they will be killed. The male protagonist refused their request to live here because of observing the inertia rules in the barracks.
I still remember a slogan, "One World, One Dream." I don’t remember where it came from. It seems to be the Olympic slogan. After remembering this scene, I suddenly felt that this sentence was ridiculous. You live in peace. Country, I live in a war-torn area, how can I have the same dream?
I can't think about it, the more I think about it, the more I feel sad.
Back to the original question, how would you choose?
If it were me, I would make the same decision as the male protagonist. I chose to lie to get away with it. Perhaps this choice would be more painful. Four years of imprisonment may be atonement. At least the guilt would be much lighter, just like this. Punishment, but to bear this responsibility for a lifetime, accept the torture of the soul whenever there is no one in the middle of the night.
But I still do it because I have my family. Because of the possession, I am more afraid of losing.
Although it is selfish to say this, I don't want to lose my family, and my family can't live without me.
It’s like I’ve always thought of volunteering in remote places to help people in poverty and war, but my family’s situation is not good, and it’s impossible to leave my family alone and leave.
Maybe it's an excuse for not being brave, I don't know, it's really helpless.
Although there are so many injustices and helpless things in the world, I still believe that it is better to live. At least the dawn of the second day is a new hope.
The above are all personal opinions, forget it after reading it~
