When they first started elementary school, when asked about their wish to grow up, many children would say to be a teacher. How pure is the "gardener of the soul" in the children's mind, and the campus is so pure and beautiful. When we grow up day by day, we discover that the world is not as beautiful as we thought, and the campus is like a small society, not pure...One day, the teacher asked us to investigate an “event” We were separated by the use of a "discrimination plan" for individual review, and each of them was defeated. What a shock to us!
What happens on our campus in peace times, what if it happened in a juvenile prison?
"Shoe Shine Boy" is such a story that describes what happened in a juvenile prison. It was taken in 1946 in Italy, a country that was defeated in World War II. The protagonist is two children, one born in a poor family, the other is a child without a father and no mother, who can sleep in an elevator and is heaven. They think that other people shine shoes for a living, and maintain a pure and beautiful friendship between them. Together they saved money to buy horses, and they were also put in a juvenile prison for being used by bad guys.
The juvenile prison was a reflection of Italian society at that time.
The sanitary conditions in the prison are extremely poor, and the children have contracted infectious diseases; the guards seized the children’s packages for no reason; the children used cigarettes to the guards in exchange for matches; in order to get better treatment, the children reported to each other, even Use force to fight for rights.... There is nothing left out of the sordid and ugly adult world, the helpless "choice" for survival.
Here, the two children who refused to reveal the mastermind behind the scenes were isolated in different rooms and were not allowed to contact and communicate with each other. Their care for each other was exploited. Under the persecution of the "fake" caning, the orphan Paskrit revealed the mastermind of the case, but was misunderstood as an informer by his friend Gussé. A pair of good friends instantly became enemies, and finally killed each other.
In different prisons, Paskrit and Gussé made their own friends. Paskrit’s friend was a weak child who had a severe lung disease. On a prison visit day, he went to see his mother expectantly, but only saw a strange woman and the package her mother had brought her. He was infinitely disappointed, but he still tried every means to find a reason for his mother. This section shocked me very much. The Gussé’s friend is a "powerful man". He instigated the Gussé to falsely accuse Paskrit, fight with Paskrit, and lead the prisoners to escape from prison.....
No matter when, these juvenile prisons The children all yearn for the free air outside. Despite the same poverty, at least they can still ride horses...
