There is hope in the wind and life in the water

There is a future in his eyes, and his persistence has repercussions

This movie can't be considered a good movie.

I have never paid attention to his historical background before watching it, and it has no influence on the viewing of the film, because only famine is enough. At the beginning, the film gave me the feeling that I was poor. I was so poor that I couldn't go to school. I couldn't continue to go to school if I didn't have money. Knowledge is private. In the end, survival is the most important thing. Money has no meaning, because money can't buy food, and without food, all that awaits is death.

At first they prayed to God, and they could only rely on the gods to save themselves. Later, even the dancers starved to death. When the chief died, they already had hope. Seeing the dancers was another feeling. Maybe that It can only be regarded as a tradition.

It is unknown what the heroine's sister finally used to get him a generator. I think that should be the last straw for her to make a decision. One less person means one less mouth to eat. In the end, she chose to leave. Impressive.

What I don't understand: The male protagonist picked up the water pump in the garbage dump at the beginning. At that time, they had not encountered a food crisis. What was the significance of him picking up the water pump? If there is water in the well, why can't people carry water to farm?
