One Breath, One Breath: Soft breathing, heavy life

I kept this video for a winter vacation, because I couldn't wait for the right person to share it with me. Originally, I wanted to find a romantic summer night, in a study room in the school, with the person I carefully selected. Weeping with the people who have been there - I originally thought of it as a love movie. After watching this film, I found that it is not just about loyal and romantic love, but about a man who has been deprived of his right to breathe, searching for the meaning of his life. Beautiful love is only a part of this life, not even the most gorgeous and splendid part.

Many viewers, including myself, have never experienced the pain of being deprived of breath. Breathing is the most common thing in life, it's always been there for granted, those muscles are always there for granted, and they're safe. Quietly, gently and softly, we are unknowingly taking on the burden of continuing our lives. But when we focus on the fragile tube in Robin's windpipe, the importance of breathing is infinitely magnified. These quiet muscles are turned into machines that make noise all the time, and those annoying hums become A logo that symbolizes the continuation of Robin's life. In the process of watching a movie, when those noises linger in the ear, it is most reassuring. So, life is heavy, our bodies are working hard for us to be alive all the time, but we healthy people can't feel it.

Diana's love for Robin is of course touching, and this love gave Robin the courage to live. At the same time, this love promotes the development of imagination. Without this love, it would be impossible for someone to take Robin away, let alone invent a wheelchair, and he would not be able to find his own "truly live".

After reflecting with emotion, is it only Diana who really brought "truly live" to Robin? Maybe she's just a part of it. Not to praise the friends who helped him, the inventor, the innocent little boy, but Robin himself. From seeking death, to survival, from survival to freedom, from freedom to truth, and finally to obtain a real life, facing his fellow disabled people, he began to seek victory, seeking for his own life and their lives. reality. "survive" is already a difficult goal for him, but he still has to pursue "truly live". I think this should be the belief and hope in his heart that is dragging the broken body forward, and the powerful mind will never be dragged down by the broken body.

"breath" is the title of the movie, it can be interpreted as a breath, it can also be interpreted as a breath, maybe it symbolizes the breath of air that the ventilator delivers to Robin, but more should symbolize Robin and his The people around them are unwilling to surrender to fate, and they are unwilling to swallow the bad breath. As long as they can continue to breathe, their resistance will not end, and their persistence will not end. With everyone's breath and breath, they are like this. Accompany Robin to continue to walk forward, to explore the meaning of life, until he gets his "truly live", he is willing to stop.

The air is light, the breathing is light, but life is heavy, and the meaning of life is heavy, so heavy that our bodies and our minds need to drive him together, take him forward, and cooperate with love, courage, imagination, and technology. Pursue the "truly live" that belongs to each of us.

    If you say that the first half of the program seems to be lower than expectations, the second half of the second half can't wait for it to win all the premieres of this year's award and abandon the stone sister. Garfield does not regret the Q&A speech and is very smart. The moment the protagonist's old lady came to the scene, she probably broke down in tears. up #TIFF
