The Darney brothers often focus on troubled teens because they see children as "the most malleable stage of life, full of infinite possibilities." For example, in the movie "One Promise" (1996), Iger has a moral conflict with a single father for his promise; he tracks the mental journey of "Rosetta" (1999), a poor living in a campervan; The awakening of the sense of responsibility of street gangsters...
The role of fatherhood is indispensable in adolescents. After being sent to the orphanage by his father, Cyril in the movie has a violent temper. He firmly believes that his father will not leave him. He cannot bear and accept the fact that his father leaves the child after losing his parents. Therefore, in the first half of the film, we see A boy with a stubborn temperament and a very egoistic personality. When Cyril found his father, his father's refusal attitude and irresponsible words made us begin to understand what this boy did before. After "bereavement" of his father, he was alone and isolated from any outside invasion. His distrust leads to hostility and defensiveness towards others.
Pure innocence within a capricious shell. Cyril helped the robbery because of Guy's sympathy with his grandmother, and when he was at a loss, he still thought of abandoning his father, hoping that the money could help him, but Guy was expelled, his father was cleared, and he was beaten again by all the people he trusted, He finally realized that Samantha was the only harbor he had left, so he sincerely apologized for what he had done, and understood and accepted Samantha's kindness and teachings.
Ironic adult world. When the film is written to Cyril and Samantha on a bicycle outing, the film can end with a sweet finale. But when Cyril fell from the tree because of the child's revenge, the child's father tore the hypocritical gentleness, first threw away the stone that hit Cyril, and tried his best to distance himself from the relationship. The more than 1,000 euros of accountability and Cyril struggled to get up and ride away, which seemed extremely ironic.
It seems to be a warm ending. Because of the appearance of the Virgin Samantha, Cyril's original pendulum, which was slamming around, finally gained inner peace, and where can he find the "Samanta" in reality?
