Several role elements that are indispensable to childhood. One is the parents, teach by precepts and deeds, and enlighten life. Many scenes in the film portray different parents, such as speeches at parent meetings, conflicts between the protagonist’s mother and the little girl in the parade, and the girl was shot to death for protecting her father. Different parents have different attitudes, good and bad. The second is the teacher. The most prominent in this film is the priest and principal, who is kind to others and upright. The third is playmates, the two little boys went from strange to familiar to inseparable. However, due to the different social levels, they eventually fell apart under the background of the military and political dictatorship. When the little boy was riding a bicycle and fleeing out of fear, at that moment, his childhood came to an end, and the purest friendship also came to an abrupt end. A very good-looking movie, Xiaoxitian's Film Archive always brings surprises. 8 points
