This is a movie about love and growth,
I love this movie, even from the very first frame, I'm obsessed with it.
A little leopard accidentally broke into the highway, and the little male protagonist Zane and his father drove past,
From then on, the little leopard entered their lives.
The little man's father is the perfect father,
The company time he gave to the little male protagonist is also the idealized company that I once yearned for.
The movie is so beautiful, and the light is as beautiful as a sip of hot chocolate in the warm winter sun.
It's the kind of soft light that a literary cafe would use, and that would melt life.
However, as in many stories,
The better it is at the beginning, the more difficult it will be waiting for you.
The boy's father suddenly fell ill, and his life underwent a sudden and great change, such as surging waves hidden in the vast water.
There is a very touching scene in the middle.
Dad took his son to gallop on the empty farm, driving at 80 per hour, the son was holding the camera, and the grown cheetah galloped in front of him.
This kind of company, although short-lived, is warm enough to be embedded in life for a lifetime.
Like the imprint of time, deep and meaningful.
The seriously ill father has changed from his previous healthy condition. He is skinny and has obvious scars from surgery on his head;
The father and the son discussed to send Duma away and send it to the place where it should go, and let it chase, gallop, and hunt.
It's a dialogue between Father and Son, and it's a philosophy that teaches us how to deal with loss.
Sadness came suddenly, however. The little man's father left on a rainy night. Sadness is as sudden as that unannounced rainstorm!
The mother rented out the farm and brought the little boy into the city. The little boy's worry-free and free childhood has drawn a stop since then.
When Zane put on his school uniform and prepared to study, the so-called ivory tower time was not as simple as expected. A school bullying in the toilet is about to start, but fortunately, Duma, who ran out, was rescued.
Then, the main film officially begins!
The 12-year-old little male protagonist took his father's previous explanation, rode a motorcycle with Duma, and set off like that, so cool and cool.
The motorcycle gallops on the vast sandy ground. This picture is so similar to the father and son time of his father's death, but it is extremely sad.
After running out of oil, I ran into Rip, a homeless man. When he took Duma to cross the river with a simple bamboo raft, the picture was very similar to "The Fantasy Rafting of Young Pi", when he was helpless in the water. , that picture is reminiscent of "The Rest of the Desert Island".
I love this kind of road film, the vast beauty and beautiful natural scenery are suffocating under the big panorama; any screenshot can be the beauty of the cover version of "National Geographic";
I love adventure films like this. When people put themselves in the extreme environment, you can tell what is most cherished;
I love human nature discussions like this, and after several life-and-death encounters, 12-year-old Zane had a thought-provoking conversation in a cave with homeless Rip.
Zane said, "My father died a while ago, how can a person be gone like that, forever."
The young actor played the role very calmly, but the audience was heartbroken. Through the screen, it seems that he can feel the pain, helplessness and sense of desolation deep in his heart. It seems that the sudden departure of his father has also taken away the whole meaning of his life.
As Rip said, "Change will come, and it will come at any time". That's how we lose, and yet continue to love life fearlessly.
And the beautiful South African savannah arrives as scheduled, with all kinds of unexpected adventures in the prairie. Rip risked his life to save Zane, but unexpectedly returned to his family; Duma returned to the prairie, in the golden wheat-like grass, it resumed the fierceness of natural wild animals, chasing and biting.
Zane cried, he knew that Duma had finally left him. But he was thankful that Duma was back where it was supposed to go.
Under the intoxicating sunset of South Africa, Zane, accompanied by Rip, experienced a journey of spiritual redemption. "I was going to take Duma home, but it took me far away," he said.
Homeless Rip returns to the family;
Cheetah Duma returned to the grassland;
Zane also returned to his mother's arms.
"Love doesn't go away, no matter how time passes, places change, or relatives leave us!"
Perhaps the meaning of our life is to understand some truths in pain, and then continue to love life and embrace change all the time.
