A happy family, the father is a psychiatrist engaged in psychoanalysis, the mother works in a gallery, and has a pair of smart and lovely children, Andrew and Erin. The two husbands and wives have a deep relationship and love their children deeply - the two stories of Android's theft and Erin and her boyfriend doing their homework at home fully reflect the deep and delicate love of the enlightened parents for their children. However, the tragic loss of Android in a diving accident is devastating for the family.
Zuo Wei was no longer able to focus on his work, while Bina indulged in pain all day long, becoming sensitive, suspicious, and having a huge emotional gap with her husband. Erin broke up with her boyfriend and developed a strong dissatisfaction with reality, becoming irritable and impulsive. The whole family is on the brink of collapse.
At this time, Bina received a letter to Android. It turns out that when Android was alive, he and a girl named Aini had mutual admiration for each other, and the two had a relationship. Bina then found a way to get close to her son again, and wanted to meet Aini. At first, the stunned Aini refused Bina's request. But in the end she came to the family. When the Bina family saw this quiet and petite girl, it was like seeing their deceased son. They poured out the love that they could not continue to give their relatives to this strange girl who had had emotional communication with their son. Aini and her classmates wanted to hitch a ride to France, so the family drove the two children to the gas station. But they couldn't get a ride smoothly, so the left guard continued to drive. At dawn, they drove all the way to the French border. The three children were fast asleep in the car. Zuo Wei and Bina got out of the car and stood on the side of the road, smiling at each other. At this point, the gap between Bina and her husband was eliminated. Then the family took Aini and his friends on the return bus, and at this time, the three of them walked towards the beach as seen from the camera window. In front of you is an endless green and clear sea, calm and calm. Sunshine is good. The three people's footsteps are different, each with its own direction. But on the empty beach, the three were together.
This is a kind of pain that I have never experienced, but I think that maybe it is not just the great pain of losing a loved one, but all the pain cannot be shared. Everyone's world is a different world, isolated and isolated. Happy emotions can be contagious, but no one can really feel another person's painful emotions. The pain can only be endured on its own, and when you can no longer focus on the pain, the pain is lessened because the attention is diverted. That's why a little pain can be "shared" with others - other people's attention can divert your attention, so you more or less ignore your own feelings. But in the huge grief, people have no time to care for him, and his attention is tightly controlled by all the pain, so even close relatives and loved ones will become strangers.
However, one cannot be at a loss in such a situation. Standing still, indulging in the past or imagining, escaping from reality - being bound by pain and unable to move, is tantamount to the exhaustion of life. It is necessary to find new activities to be engaged in, to divert the painful attention. The matter of sending Aini to France in the film made the Zuo Wei family come out of the pain. Forgetting is the hallmark of all suffering being healed - there are many that cannot be healed, such as bereavement, but are tolerated with habit. Any pain can be accustomed to, and unless the pain kills people, people must get used to it - accept it, consider it a part of their life, and live.
At the end of the film, the family's footsteps on the beach have their own directions, but they will not stay in place after all. No matter whether it is pain or joy, it cannot be stagnant. The people you love the most, although you can't keep pace and die together, but you know, they are not far away.
