tortured people

I watched this film with a calm heart. I didn't have any expectations before, so I just wanted to watch something for entertainment. After watching it, I have to admit that this is a good movie in a GAY-themed movie. Strictly speaking, this film is one of the darker themes among gay-themed films, with descriptions of pedophiles and male prostitutes as its main content, but I have to say, this film is good for grasping the "degree". "The above is very good, there are no filthy scenes, no sensual scenes, and no bloody accusations. The film uses a semi-reversed method to express the purpose it wants to achieve from the perspective of one of the stories of children who have been sexually abused since childhood. However, this purpose is actually purposeless, and the film does not deliberately criticize anything or prove it to the audience. What, it's almost purely showing the story of two children who were sexually abused in their childhood, blending them into ordinary lives, their friends, their families, and bringing two people with extraordinary encounters into one watch. an ordinary life.

But I still feel that, just like the narration at the end of the film, everything is difficult to change, and those who are tortured will continue to be tortured in the end. However, sometimes it's better to get used to it.

    Neil's forgetting paid the price, but the pain and suffering that Brian experienced in the moment of reminiscing was another way to preserve memory. Do you forget it altogether, or remember it forever and treat it as a good thing to soothe the pain in your heart? In the end, will everything disappear in that summer?
