The scenery outside the car window was skipped, and after a long time, I was a little distracted. What is each departure for? It seems that it is not just to reach the destination, but to meet something. Sister Ada also made such a trip. Before taking the oath to become an official nun, she set off to visit her only relative, her aunt. Before that, Sister Ada didn't know that she still had relatives, and she never left the convent alone. She had been immersed in a relatively simple environment, living with her sisters and talking to God. Quiet, absolutely, without him.
This time, the destination is the aunt's house, but the encounter is not just family. The aunt took the nun Ada and set off again, to find the bones of their relatives, who had been buried. The unbearable history of the Nazi era mercilessly enveloped the nun Ida, who had just learned of her Jewish identity. The two of them set off and the destination was the place where their relatives were buried, but what they met was the cruelest truth. My aunt has experienced struggles and hardships. As a state cadre, she has been trained to be greasy, cold-blooded and cynical. At that time, my aunt, as the leader of the resistance movement, strongly defended the country, and her son was murdered by his compatriots because of his Jewish identity. When the aunt digs the soil and finds the small skull, I am afraid that she will not care about the gains and losses of the struggle, but quietly collapse. Sister Ada followed her aunt to pick up her parents' bones in the dirt, and she didn't know how to talk to God in her heart.
They met not only relatives, not only the truth, but also the indescribable and complicated human nature. After this departure, Sister Ada hesitated before taking the oath, and this encounter with various souls apparently disturbed the once simple mind. My aunt left forever. She played the record as usual, and jumping downstairs was as natural as pushing the window to dry the clothes.
Sister Ada set off again, and the destination was still her aunt's room. What will she encounter this time? Black and white film, the composition is very special, deep introspection, making people sad and admirable. Every time we set out, can we be more thorough and simple.
