Because those who adhere to the old ideas suppress the desire to seek knowledge, the film puts forward a euphemistic and symbolic criticism of the old ideas at that time: high walls cannot protect knowledge, and knowledge can only survive through continuous dissemination. At the same time, with a unique way of expression, the heavy culture and history are properly integrated into a fairy tale-like dream, and the Irish traditional culture represented by the Book of Kells is displayed to the world. The protagonist Brandon has the characteristics of innocence, has his own beliefs and pursuits, and has his own persistence and persistence. In the face of his uncle's obstruction, Xiao Xiaohe resolutely persevered in his pursuit. After the war, he strengthened his belief that he has a long way to go to complete the Book of Kells and drive out the darkness. After finishing the book, actively disseminate it to the public to save the people. As shown in the film, when Brandon reappears at the monastery, the sun rises and the rays of light appear. He is a positive and bright hero who brings hope and new life to the people. I think the film is not only a story about the coming of the Book of Kells, but also a story about a boy growing up. Brandon has successfully grown into a hero who rescued others from a small painter through layers of hardships and transformations, inheriting and spreading the precious traditional culture, and realizing his own life value.
