Beyond borders

Very surprised that only 16 people have seen the movie. This film is actually a transformation of JULIE, in which she is a very educated, very virtuous traditional British woman. But her work exposed her to humanitarian philanthropy, so she embarked on a philanthropic journey across Africa. There, she met the male protagonist, a doctor, a doctor who loves life, cherishes life, and treats life equally. Their common care for the weak makes them spark. Although the film tells their love story, its title "Beyond Borders" not only says that love can transcend moral boundaries, a married woman commits adultery with an unmarried man, but also conveys that love has no borders, the world and even China Many places in the world are living in poverty, we should do something to these poor and vulnerable groups and dedicate our love.

Sarah Jordan: No
Nick Callahan: No, and that's us, right? We drown it. Kill it. Numb it, anything not to feel. You know, when I was a doctor in London, no one ever said 'medahani'. They don't thank you like they thank you here. Cos here they feel everything, straight from God. There's no drugs, no painkillers. It's the weirdest, purest thing - suffering. And when you've seen that kind of courage in a li... - pauses, tears well up -... in a child... How could you ever want to do anything but just hold him in your arms? You remember that boy in London, JoJo?
Sarah Jordan: Yes of course
Nick Callahan: He was my first save, 10 years old. So thin he could barely stand. But he still found the strength the bury the rest of his family. We have no idea what courage is... He used to write me little notes. He helped me in the clinic. He was good. He was sweet, he was good. He wanted to be like me, I liked that. I mean, it was silly and childish, but it made me feel good about myself. So I took him with me to London, you know, my talisman, my courageous Africa... - pauses - How could I be so bloody stupid? How could I be so totally selfish? The point is... he was my friend. He had a name. So now I HAVE to remember him. If everybody I lose has a name...
