The 52Hz whale, also known as "the world's loneliest whale", is called Alice, which was discovered in 1989. In the eyes of other whales, Alice is like a mute. It hasn't had a relative or friend for so many years, and no one has heard it when it sings, No one cares when you are sad. The reason is that the frequency of this lonely whale is 52Hz, while the frequency of normal whales is only 15-25Hz, and its frequency has always been different. Alice lives outside the standards of other whales, just like the children in the film who live outside our normal standards. The film follows Bruno and Malik over the past two decades living in a world outside the norm, a world that belongs to children and teens with autism. They formed two non-profit associations with the goal of training young people to work as caregivers in impoverished areas, taking care of some seriously ill patients who were rejected by other institutions. The focus of the film is on two patients, one is Joseph, who is about to enter the society, and the other is Valentine, a severely ill patient who is thin but has a strong aggressive type. Joseph looks simple and honest, and even looks cute, but he likes pressing buttons very much. He often can't help pressing the emergency button in the car when he is doing the subway, which leads to being fined. The most serious one was detained and Bruno needed to redeem him. go. Valentine is extreme and very aggressive. The nurse who takes care of him is also a novice who has just arrived in the industry. Valentine almost broke the bridge of the nurse's nose. When Valentine was just transferred from the hospital to stay overnight at the hotel with the nurse, Valentine ran out of the hotel and walked to the street alone at night due to the caregiver's negligence. With the efforts of all the staff of the institution, they finally found Valentin. Lundin also brought him back safely. When creating the character of Valentine, some of the shots used Valentine's first point of view. At first, the world in his perspective was blurred, and he couldn't see the world, which made him feel terrified, so he became aggressive. And on the day he was finally taken off the helmet that was originally worn to prevent him from attacking himself in Bruno's agency, the world in his perspective became clear, the sun shone on him, and there was a touch of warmth in his world. I first learned about autism as a special group in elementary school. At that time, I read "Can I Hug You, Baby" written by Yu Yujun, a writer I like very much, known as "Sister Braid". The book uses the perspective of an adopted child, Wang Jiadian, to tell the story of her mother who has a strong and stubborn maternal love. With incomparable patience and true love, he completed an "impossible task" and got Baobao's lightest and heaviest hug. In the book, these children with autism are called "children of the stars", because they seem to be isolated on a distant and cold planet. But I prefer to describe them as 52 The whales of Hz, we ordinary people have no way to communicate with them because we have not found the right way to communicate with them, so they are lonely, but their hearts long for warmth. When I really came into contact with the autism group, it was in junior high school. My father met good friend B through his good friend A, and the eldest son of this good friend B is "a 52Hz whale". He's a little older than me, so I should call him my brother. When the three families were preparing to eat together in a restaurant, this brother was suddenly very emotional, shouting and waving his upper limbs to do some movements. We didn't understand what happened to him, so we had to control him first Appease him in the seat and try to calm him down, and the waiters around him all looked at him with a strange look, as if he was some kind of beast. But after serving the dish, he quickly turned the dish in front of him, immediately grabbed a few chopsticks and ate it, and even held the turntable to prevent us from turning away. We then realized that he just wanted to express that he was hungry. Because I had a certain understanding of this group through that book, I was not surprised or disgusted by this brother's behavior. I was more able to understand his behavior, but the waiters around him voted him. Go's strange eyes make me feel very uncomfortable. Like what Joseph's mother said to the two official investigators in the film: I often think of young parents who have just learned of their child's diagnosis, no one reminds me to plan for the long term, we fight from day one, child They were cute when they were kids, you wouldn't imagine what they would look like when they grew up, but as time goes on, when they grow up, people start to look at them differently, and for me, the world is divided into two The first category no longer cares and listens to us, and the second category is the few who care about us. Father's friend A once told our family about the situation of friend B's house, because friend B and his wife neglected to take care of the brother when he was busy with his career when he was a child, and when they found out that something was wrong, the brother was already three years old. At that time, my friend B and his wife were still young. After knowing the result, the brother's mother could be regarded as half of her hair turning white overnight, and his father felt much older overnight. The couple had to work harder to earn money while taking care of the children, and do their best to make their son's life better in the future. But most people in society, like the waiters I met in a restaurant, still hold a different view of them and cannot accept them equally, just because they live beyond our normal human standards. There are people like Bruno and Malik in society who are willing to take care of this for decades Group, what a precious thing this is. Standards are set by people, and there is no precise definition. They live outside our standards to us, so why don't we live outside their standards to them? The reason why 52Hz whales are lonely is because the whales around them can't understand it, and they have no way to communicate and communicate. And like the 52Hz whales, this group of groups living outside our standards, the reason why they behave aggressively is because the world is too vague in their eyes, they are afraid but can't use our ordinary people They are not really trying to attack us by doing this kind of behavior, they are just using their own way to express what they want to express. We can bring them some warmth through understanding and companionship, which can make them feel that they are not a lonely whale, they can be integrated into our big family. So, if one day you meet "a 52Hz whale", they are kind and don't really want to hurt you, please don't be afraid, please don't look at them in a different way, please give them more warmth, Bring a ray of sunshine to their world.
