In order to survive, how do you choose?

The first time I wrote a film review, it was not because I wanted to say anything, but because I couldn’t write the review...

It’s really tangled to rate this movie. When I first watched it, I didn’t find the blunt, robot-like dialogue at all attractive (even after watching it now). The bad narrative made me feel It's extremely boring to not enter, and the bedding for an hour makes people drowsy. I watched a movie for a week before and after, and turned it on and off countless times...

But at the end of the movie, the exposure of humanity is so profound: the erring father is the only person in this family who can excuse it; the mother who is willing to give up her child in order to survive, deliberately told her father to kill his sister, even the youngest son I shaved off my hair to please my father. Everyone tried their best to survive, and everyone gave up the so-called family affection and dignity.

I thought that as a father, I would commit suicide and save my wife’s and children’s lives, but the facts proved I was wrong...I thought that as a mother, I would be willing to sacrifice myself for the sake of her children, but the facts proved that I was wrong again...I thought that as a sister would I dedicated myself to protect my younger brother, but the facts proved that I was wrong... I thought that the youngest child shouldn’t know how to please the father who is the "power man" like everyone else, but the facts proved me After all, one mistake...

And I don’t know if anyone has discovered that after the father found out that he was killing his son, in the shot that lasted for a few seconds, no tears flowed, but a sigh that was almost a sigh... It turned out that "in power" "In the heart" really has his own preferences

But what can we say? Are they guilty? They just want to survive, everyone, their only wish is to survive, and when they all acquiesce that the "power-holders" have the unconditional right to survive and choose, they begin to please the so-called "power-holders." It's that simple, survive, it's that simple three words.

It's that simple.

So I said, the holy deer is not dead.

Because it does not exist in this movie.
