[Not dark enough, not desperate enough]

[Ask innocence]
This question is the most enjoyable part of me.

The first turning point of the film is when the girl lied about Lucas to show herself his cock. At this time, the purpose of the film began to emerge, and the trivialities of the previous ten minutes began to accumulate at this turning point. From here, the ferociousness of the film began to be revealed.

It wasn't until the teacher asked someone to ask the girl what happened, until the girl denied it from the beginning to finally nodded nervously, which made me despise this "innocent" individual, and then this feeling quickly disappeared and replaced it. Is full of joy!

Because I realized that this is the film’s suspicion of innocence, and this bold suspicion really makes me feel so cool. This is related to my personal experience (if you are interested in seeing the end of the article, don’t waste your time here). They all feel that children are innocent, but they often lie without blinking! And sometimes this is a kind of fun for them, I know them too well!

Using this possibility to cut into child sexual assault gave me a pleasure to vent my anger.

[Ask about trust]
When the moral problem of child sexual assault appeared in the film, family, friendship, and love were thrown into the most difficult predicament to be tested, torturing the choice between trust and distrust of these three. In the process of this test, there were wandering, hugs, and goodbyes, and Lucas was in panic all day long. The pace and progress of the whole process can force the viewer to follow up with anger, but I am not very satisfied with the final result.

The big stone that broke through the window and the cold gun at the end are both a slap in the face of this illusion when the light seems to come, reminding the characters and viewers that after some shit basins are spilled on you, you will spend your whole life. Don't even think about washing it clean. If you want to start again, you must always be prepared to accept conspiracy and slander.

Sometimes we think we are uniting to resist evil, but in fact, we are using this kind of unity to support each individual's violence to the extreme of the masses! Which is true and false, what is morality, what is respect, and what is trust?

In fact, I think it is not just us, but all nations in the world have a crowd-converging mentality. This kind of psychology makes that once someone is put on a hat, they will be cast aside by the world. This reminds me of the Cultural Revolution, but the "hat" is different.

[Ask the movie]
This movie is actually not as dark as I thought. In the process of watching the movie, I habitually guess the direction of the story. Especially when the little girl came to Lucas's house later and mentioned "other people" to Lucas, I was a little excited, thinking that something darker was waiting for me, so in the process I found a few suspicious Object. I regard these talents as people who have actually committed child sexual assaults, including Lucas's friends, the little girl's dad, etc. Unfortunately, as I said, this film is not as dark as I thought.

I think this film shouldn't have hope. It ends like this, a bit indecisive, and the strength is not so fierce.

========================================== The
so-called my personal experience means, When I was in high school, my mother ran her own kindergarten. During the winter and summer vacations, I would help my mother bring the group of "innocent" children. Every year, children leave the kindergarten, and then new children come in, and they are replaced in batches. The same "innocent" and the same "nonsense". Sometimes, you are next to them and watch them lie to each other...
