The knot of a family of origin affects a generation and sees everyone struggling. Mother's hysteria, weakness, and lack of strength after trying to change again and again; the impact of the original family on people is more than material and education, it has put the possibility of our life in a framework from the beginning, and this framework has gradually been shaped. Your character, temper, emotions, values, right and wrong, and sense of security. As adults, we try to break this invisible shackle; but the shackle is too heavy and too deep into the marrow. When I see my mother losing control again and again in the film, it is natural to be angry, but the director let us see her helplessness (when things get out of control, she is almost unable to extricate herself into an emotional black hole) , her struggles (she really wants to be good, but at the same time doesn't have the ability to be good).
However, in any case, I believe that it is with such struggling efforts that the knot of the original family will be smaller than one generation. We will slowly get better.
