What a movie can present to the audience is very limited. It is difficult to convey all the stories and emotions to us in just two hours. Considering the audience's tolerance, many cruelties only describe an outline, how cruel they are, We have no way of knowing.
If I hadn't read articles and Weibo about Yang Yongxin on the Internet before, it would be hard for me to believe that there are such dark corners in this world, and a group of such lovely children are tortured and bruised all over by "so-called education" After the rescue, long-term medication is needed to relieve depression and fear, and it is still impossible to live a normal life.
Based on true events, "One Day" tells the story of a boarding school led by a headmaster who believes in violence, an equally violent headmaster-like character, a pedophile Animals, etc. are unscrupulous "teachers". The children here are like lifeless ghosts, they can't have their own thoughts, and they need to obey orders 100%, otherwise there will be endless corporal punishment waiting for you. The two little protagonists are a pair of brothers. They lost their father when they were young, and their mother suddenly fell ill with cancer. No one could take care of them, so the brothers were sent to this hellish school (the outside world does not know the real situation of the school) .
The nightmare starts here. It is common for teachers to beat students, and they even call it "this is for their own good, and one day they will understand and be grateful." Just like Yang Yongxin, when doing things that hurt the world and reason, he has to wear a high hat for himself and hold the banner of teaching and educating people. If you are injured, send it to the school doctor for treatment. As long as you don’t get any clues from the people who check above, you will be beaten the next day; if that’s not desperate enough, there is also: there is a pedophile male teacher who is on duty every time he is on duty. That night, I went to the student dormitory and picked a student who was pleasing to the eye and called to my room to sexually assault the student. Would you like to? Beat and drag away sexual assault. The principal is well aware of this and acquiesced. The most desperate thing is the numbness and indifference of these students to abuse and sexual assault. The newcomers will be taught by the old children: "Here, you must act like a Only a ghost can survive." What's more, bullying the weak with the strong, and bullying each other in this group of poor, unable to struggle lives, when the brothers faced corporal punishment, they did not resist collectively, but asked the teacher to punish them. The brothers defended themselves. When they saw the weak being punished, they lay on the window and cheered. The children have gradually lost their healthy personalities and their minds are distorted. Even if they are rescued one day, they will not be able to become normal members of society.
The director is still kind to the audience, arranging an upright prosecutor and a compassionate teacher. These two characters push the brothers to be rescued, even though the ending almost traded for the brothers' lives. Seeing that my younger brother, in order to save his elder brother who was beaten to death by the principal but was not sent to the hospital, resolutely smashed the principal's car and made the principal get angry and beat himself up to leave evidence of violence. The expression of fear made my heart ache deeply; seeing that after the brothers were rescued, the children finally stood up and had a dialogue with the prosecutor, fighting for their own life, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief; seeing my brother going to the principal's place To apply for dropping out, the principal still looked at his younger brother with a "sincere" face and said, "What we do is for your own good, you will understand, right?" It is really exhausting.
At the end of the movie, the kind-hearted teacher Lilian picked up the brothers, and a boy who was closest to the brothers ran out to chase the car and say goodbye to them. The boulevard in the lens is very long and long, with no end in sight. It seems to echo the title of the film "Someday". There will always be that day, but I don't know what year, month and day it is, and the sun shines on the boulevard. Puzhao, changing the dark background before, also seems to give people hope.
Unscrupulous parents and unscrupulous schools constitute such a chain of evil. If it is not for teachers who have a conscience to stand up for justice for the children, will it be forever? In reality, how can such a kind and brave teacher really appear so coincidentally? Where has social supervision gone? Just like what the prosecutor said in the movie, "No advance notice is called inspection." If social supervision can be put into effect, how can such an unscrupulous institution escape?
Hope "someday" is not a form of self-deception, much less a lie told to fools.
