The most distressing thing is the collective silence after collective slavery and collective paralysis, and the forced silence after forced obedience and forced identification.
Eric and Herman grew up in a single-parent family, with rebellious personalities and frequent troubles.
Due to the sudden illness of the mother and the inability of the uncle to support them, the two brothers were sent to a special school.
The school specializes in "problem children" who are difficult to discipline.
In this particular school, there are several such roles.
First, the perpetrator.
The principal firmly believed that violence was an excellent way to deal with bad children. He said: "No one can educate you anymore. Everything is for your own good. You won't become a man without being beaten. You will appreciate this place and they will understand my contribution in the future."
The second is followers.
The short and fat male teacher has a weak personality, but as a subordinate, in order to gain the principal's affirmation, he copied and pasted the principal's "education method" into his own hands.
The third one is the rapist.
Small, aging, hunched, middle-aged male teachers often sneak into the children's dormitories at night and call their chosen children to their rooms. Vent your lust on these kids who don't know what "sex" is
Fourth, the condoners.
The old female teacher had worked in the school for many years and turned a blind eye to the violence of the teachers, headed by the principal. Although she persuaded to take care of the beaten children, she never stopped the violence.
The fifth one is those who follow the crowd.
Herman was small and had disabled feet. After telling his dream of becoming an astronaut, he was slapped in public by the principal and laughed at by everyone. During the collective labor process, the elder brother Eric was pressed to the ground, and the other students forced Herman to climb to the water tower while throwing him with stones.
After the bullying and beatings, the brothers were disciplined to "get better and better".
They waited, waited, and finally waited for the news of the mother's death, the abandonment of the uncle, and the ending where the principal would not let him go even though he could leave the school.
The movie has such a small design.
When the camera is at school, the picture is gray.
When the camera is not at school, the picture is warm.
One of the horrors of "Someday": the perpetrator thinks he is the righteous.
This movie tells us: Don't be afraid of bad people killing people and setting fires, just be afraid that bad people will look like dogs. It is such an inhumane school that has been affirmed and praised many times by foreign inspection agencies, making the principal proud. "Boys should be disciplined in this way." Mr. Principal said these words, and he was never tired of playing the role of the bad boy's savior.
He built an education system to deal with bad kids, believing that he was right, and finally tricked himself into it.
That year, Yang Yongxin's use of electric shock therapy to help minors get rid of Internet addiction was a sensation.
When Chai Jing interviewed the Yang Yongxin incident, I was deeply impressed by the two dialogues.
One is Chai Jing interviewing the life committee member of the addiction treatment organization.
Chai Jing: Can you still remember the state of your body at that time?
Living Commissioner: Two hammers that vibrate very fast on your temples.
Chai Jing: Can you shout?
Life Committee Member: I can't call out, I can't open my mouth.
Another is Chai Jing interviewing a girl who is recovering from addiction.
Chai Jing: Have you received electric shock treatment here?
Girl: Accepted.
Chai Jing: Does it hurt?
Girl: It hurts a little bit, but not very sore.
Chai Jing: Can you accept it?
Girl: Acceptable.
Chai Jing: Why do you need such pain?
Girl: It can clear the brain and think deeply in the heart.
Chai Jing: Why can you wake up when you are in pain?
Girl: It's just a little pain, that kind of slight pain
Chai Jing: Do you think you are really sober, or did you obey because of fear?
Girl: Really sober.
Chai Jing: Really?
Girl: Really. (the girl starts to cry)
Chai Jing: Why are you crying?
Girl: I don't. (continue to cry)
Chai Jing: You are crying.
Girl: No, I want to stay here. (big big tears fall)
For children who have the courage to take on mistakes and obey Yang Yongxin's arrangements, use a 5 mA power supply to "click twice to finish";
For children with defiant behavior, up to 40 milliamps of current can be used to shock.
This is very similar to the educational philosophy of the principal in "One Day": obedient children can live in peace, and a little resistance is a beating.
Yang Yongxin said: "He must have an uncomfortable experience in order to have an effect. If there is no such uncomfortable experience, it will be difficult to achieve such an effect."
As the principal in "Someday" said, "You can't be a man without being beaten."
The local leader said to Yang Yongxin: "Yang Yongxin, even if you successfully rescue a child, it is a matter of infinite merit."
In One Day, the agency responsible for the educational review also expressed high satisfaction with the school's educational outcomes.
The two incidents are exactly the same.
This also reminds me of the popular TV series "Little Shede" some time ago. Zhong Yi illegally set up off-campus cram schools, which caused huge damage to the children's mental health, and was finally warned by the education department.
Faced with the harm he caused to the child, Zhong Yi shouted hysterically, "I'm a fate!"
Because there are too many teachers in this world who physically punish students and give supplementary lessons, and he is one of the few who have been exposed.
Zhong Yi, the principal and Yang Yongxin are all self-righteous perpetrators.
"Someday" Horror No. 2: The silent consider themselves outsiders.
The brothers tried to escape for the first time and were taken back to the school, where the principal ordered all the children to line up and beat them in turn. Victims who should have been in the same camp as the brothers, these students became executioners. "Here, you have no choice, you can only be a ghost."
The most distressing thing is the collective silence after collective slavery and collective paralysis, and the forced silence after forced obedience and forced identification.
The New York Times reported on this incident:
On March 13, 1964, 28-year-old Kitty Genovese was attacked by gangsters on her way back to her apartment from get off work. The attack lasted nearly 30 minutes. During the period, Kitty Genovese called for help several times to nearby residential buildings, but no one helped except one who called the police. In the end, she died on the way to the hospital.
According to the investigation, 38 people heard Kitty's cries for help or saw the scene when she was being attacked, but none of them took any action.
This incident has aroused public attention and discussion on the indifference of human nature.
Later, psychologists Bibb Latané and John Darley put forward a theory for this event through research and experiments - the bystander effect.
In this theory, one factor that triggers the bystander effect is evaluative fear, which is that if people know that others are watching them, they will do what others expect them to do, expressing themselves in a way that is popular and acceptable.
"Someday" is an extreme case of the bystander effect, and the bystander is also a victim of time.
There is no escape and no one to ask for. "Forbearance" is the only way to save oneself. The students take a tacit attitude towards this.
Therefore, as long as they are not being persecuted, they will choose to be dumb, choose to be a melon eater, and even use witnessing and aggravating the victimization of others as a way to transfer their own pain and increase their happiness.
With this kind of thinking, it is obvious that the students who have the advantage in numbers are divided, and no one has come forward and cannot be united.
Fortunately, Herman became the leader of this group of children by virtue of his love and persistence for his brother.
The story lit up at the end of the film, when children raised their hands to report crimes at the school.
The two most healing episodes in the film are that with the help of a kind female teacher, Herman served as a postman at the school. He was like a lovely angel when he rode a bicycle through the school.
The other is that after Herman failed to find the prosecutor as he wished, the female teacher said to him: "I will wait here all the time today, and when the prosecutor comes back, we will definitely save you, Elmer, don't give up."
When Herman sees his brother dying, he decides not to wait any longer, and no longer believes in the promise of "someday".
He decided to be his own astronaut, take himself and his brother out of the darkness, and jump into the vast sea of stars in his dream.
