I really like the narrative structure of this movie.
A film centered on criticism of domestic violence, the overall narrative structure is very unique, and each paragraph is very well connected. After watching it, people are suddenly enlightened. Every flashback is like the process of uncovering scars and scars. Although it is painful, it will not heal until the wound is opened. Finally, the mother and daughter can release their quarrels and understand each other. The ending is also very cured.
Heroine: A woman who has been hurt by domestic violence, her only wish is that her daughter Serena can grow up healthy and safe, finish her studies, find a good job, and leave the current environment. And for this, she can endure the hurt of her husband and the harsh demands of Fu Tai's employer. Until her husband started hurting her daughter, the heroine finally awakened to resist.
Husband: The root of all cholera, a man who likes to drink, violent and ruthless
Daughter: The most innocent victim, the harm caused by the original family made her choose to escape for a time, and her misunderstanding of her mother continued to deepen. It was not until her mother chose to tell her the painful truth and awakened her memory that she understood her mother's feelings. Love
Detective: Paranoid, but I love my job, I must bring the bad guys to justice, but it really confirms a sentence, it is difficult for an honest official to cut off housework, and when a mother and daughter are subjected to violence, the law cannot protect them
Rich wife: The surface is bitter and mean, but she is willing to give all her inheritance to the heroine. As an outsider to the heroine's family, it is better than the heroine's husband to the heroine.
Some of the most shocking scenes of the film:
1⃣️The mother listened to the words of the rich lady and decided to resist and kill her husband. The total solar eclipse and the astronomical spectacle combined with the tense dialogue of the film, revealing her husband's violence and ruthlessness
2⃣️Daughter until the truth confronted her mother and the police detective, the whole dialogue is very exciting, revealing the gist of the whole movie
So the film tells us not to endure domestic violence, but to choose to resist. The rich lady chose to resist, and the heroine also chose to resist.
