He laughed and we cried

"Zane, laugh." He laughed and I cried. It wasn't just me, the sobbing was evident in the theater. The film is over, but the sadness is not over, and across the screen, the despair in that world is not over either. "I'm going to sue my parents." "Why?" "Because they gave birth to me." There are a lot of kids who think like that, but they don't have the right to sue. The adults gave birth to them without any reason, and raised them like pigs and dogs.

Boys' labor, girls' bodies, are at their disposal. If it was just Zane himself, he would get used to this kind of fate, maybe when he grew up, he would become like his father, but the betrayal and death of his sister made him a protester. At the stage of running away from home, he met a mother and son who He also acted as the "parent" of the black baby for a certain period of time. When forced by life, he had to sell the baby, and Zane cried during the haircut. Are Zane's parents' cry justified? To a certain extent, they are all victims of war. Everyone wants to live a prosperous and stable life, but their defense is also powerless, because in their eyes, children are just tools and commodities.

A documentary-like effect, a true and cruel reflection of reality, Capernaum, the land of chaos and disorder, Jesus is not there, God is not there, the poor are like ants, the actors have no acting skills, and they don't need acting skills, they just reenact their lives. The condolences through the bars are extremely absurd, and the sympathy and reflection through the screen are not necessarily powerless.

Capernaum quotes

  • Zain: I want to make a complaint against my parents. I'd want adults to listen to me. I want adults who can't raise kids not to have any. What will I remember? Violence, insults or beatings, hit with chains, pipes, or a belt? The kindest words I heard were get out son of a whore! Bug off, piece of garbage! Life is a pile of shit. Not worth more than my shoe. I live in hell here. I burn like rotting meat. Life is a bitch.I thought we'd become good people, loved by all. But God doesn't want that for us. He'd rather we be washrags for others. The child you're carrying will be like I am.

  • Zain: Life is the biggest injustice.
