I have traveled all over the world, but my home and family are still my home.
This is a very appropriate word to describe Saroo's state of mind. It is precisely because there is a permanent home in his heart that he never goes far. It should be said that Saroo is lucky, because after experiencing helplessness, despair, and danger, he met the kind-hearted John and Sue, who raised him like their own children and sent him to a university education; but Saroo is unfortunate, or sad, left from his mother and family who loved him deeply. Every day he is that lonely little poor, he is destined to be alone.
A brief review of Saroo's experience, he lived in poverty, but he had a mother who loved him deeply, as well as Luke and his sister who accompanied him growing up. He seemed to be more inseparable from Luke, because that was the best play in his childhood. The companion will always bring him joy and surprises. They live peaceful, happy lives, even in poverty. But everything came to an abrupt end when he and Luke got separated at the train station. Since then, Saroo's fate has been changed, and the lives of Luke and his mother and sister will also be completely changed. Violence, deceit, panic, he carefully and stubbornly survived in this strange world until he was adopted by John and his wife from the orphanage. This may be the best arrangement for him, and it also allows the audience to escape from the depressing plot. There is a trace of relief and hope. In this strange new home, he is trying hard to adapt, Saroo is lucky, especially when compared with his adopted brother Himself, he at least has a sound mind, he will not hurt himself, he will Taking the initiative to accept the new environment, he will make himself a member of the family, which is fate's favor for him, or compensation for him. In this new home, his adoptive parents treat him as if they were their own, raise him up, and still give him understanding and support even when he is looking for his biological mother at the end of his life. great.
I believe Saroo was entangled, conflicted, and sad. He wanted to find his long-lost relatives, and he knew that it would hurt his adoptive parents. He also tried to forget the remaining memories and live in the present, but the images that had been imprinted in his mind were not lingering, he wants to be the Saroo that everyone wants, but he also knows he is the lost one from Calcutta, and in the end it is still his adoptive parents who encourage and support him, it is this couple of moments A kind-hearted person who exudes truth, kindness and beauty. Childhood scenes are awakened one by one, heralding that he is about to find his home, the place that has haunted him for years. More than 20 years later, when the little Saroo finally returned home, he was greeted by his mother and sister who were also waiting for him. This was probably the scene that moved the audience the most, because the power of family love always surpasses us. imagination. That little Saroo has grown up, her mother's hair has turned white, and her younger sister who was still in her cradle has become an adult. I wonder what they were thinking at the moment they met again? Excited, excited, unbelievable, or a relief, a relaxation that has been expected for more than 20 years, maybe only the characters can experience it, but we are deeply moved by these little people.
It has to be said that family love has an unimaginable power. It will guide the wanderer back home in the dark, and it will also welcome the returning relatives in a familiar and warm way in a familiar place. Over and over, home and relatives are still home. I suddenly think of the motorcycle army who rides home in the Pearl River Delta during the Spring Festival every year. Even if they are in danger all the time, even if the road is windy and rainy, they still have to ride for a few days and nights to get home. Such an urgent and excited mood may be Those of us who have never left home can't appreciate it. Every year during the Spring Festival, I watch my friends pack their things happily, stuff their trunks full of gifts for their family members, and their enthusiasm reaches the highest point of the year. I envy them all, because there is always a harbor in my heart where I can park, and there will always be there. Peace of mind, always looking forward to their return.
