1984, the biblical famine.
London. Benefit Party, the communication of the upper class; the "thugs" who suddenly broke in, with scrawny children, the bride in white dress was knocked down by the crowd (at the time I thought Nick was thrown by Sarah and smashed the field).
So the male pig's feet stood among the onlookers and scolded you for the thick phlegm that came out of the banknotes. Do you know how many people in Ethiopia are on the verge of death.
That woman is really cute and silly. After hearing this, I went to Ethiopia in person, wearing a long white dress. She quarrels with Nick, gets overwhelmed by powerful thoughts, and falls in love with him.
He then returned to London and continued his life as a member of the United Nations Refugee Relief Organization.
She had a lovely son at the time, and she rarely told him stories because of her work.
She went to Cambodia alone because of a request from a friend she had been with in Ethiopia. For refugees, to meet Nick.
Actually, it's a pawn. Everyone took advantage of her kindness.
On the way to deliver the supplies, he was almost killed because the goods contained weapons and intelligence maps; when he arrived at the place, he sacrificed a colleague because he did not bring any weapons and maps.
Then, fall in love with him. In an unfamiliar country without the constraints of social power, what should happen and what should not happen has happened. He rejected her, saying that it could not be done; she cried, she was helpless, and she returned to England.
The year 1989, Cambodia Vietnam, Khmer Rouge.
Later she had a little girl.
the year 1995.
She knew Nick was missing in war-torn Chechnya. The soul was disturbed and wanted to leave quietly in the middle of the night, but her husband appeared, but the persuasion was ineffective. (A husband who is bound to be mentally derailed. Yes, who can bear that his wife loves another man without pretending to be perfunctory to himself?)
Sarah, instead, took a huge insult and went to see Nick in Chechnya - alone again. (The inner cow is full of faces...Sister, you can really run...)
The bearded man told her about Nick's whereabouts, and she went. The man was in a coma, and there were shells flying all over the place. Whoever made this a vast snow field, this house is naturally a target.
In the fairy tale, the heroine is awakened by the prince; in the movie, the plot is reversed. She told him a lot of love words, shook him, said her daughter was bleeding his.
He woke up, the two ran, and finally there was no way to escape. He said: Sarah, go away, they won't do anything to me.
She ran and stepped on a mine. Looking back at him running towards her, his eyes were desperate. Perhaps at that moment, she remembered what the Cambodian lame driver said to her, "You will never forget that plot, the mines exploded beside you. You will never forget that huge sound." The only thing she can't
forget is the merciless man , not a loud bang.
Nick survives, and at the end of the credits he goes to London, and it's lovely to see him and Sarah's daughter playing the piano through the window.
At the beginning, Sarah also plays a beautiful tune, which is in stark contrast to the theme of the entire movie - war, poverty, famine, and death. There are always some things in the world that can't be seen, and half of the people's life can't be imagined by the other half.
She could have lived a lady's life. Although the depressed economy will bring some pressure, she will never sleep on the street and get bananas by pretending to be a monkey.
But Nick broke the calm, he brought the black kid JOJO, and after someone threw bananas at them, he said something that people can't squeeze out even the slightest smile. Perhaps, Sarah originally had a wild heart and didn't know the meaning of being indifferent to herself.
As early as Nick's first appearance, she was captured subconsciously.
"If you desperately want to leave any traces in the other person's heart, then it is a debt owed to you in your previous life."
One life for another. The lives of Cambodian infants were exchanged for the lives of Americans who threw a disarmed grenade outside. Nick's life in Chechnya was bought by Sarah who stepped on a landmine.
Those big shots of one person—Sarah standing on a high cliff in Africa flying in white; a baby with a gun pointed at her head; a Chechen businessman smiling and saying "Ture love?" to Sarah... The delicate expressions make people feel Strong shock.
What is tragedy?
Tragedy destroys good things.
Tragedy is destroying beauty in front of your eyes, but you can't do anything;
Tragedy is when someone you love loves someone else, but you can only cuck off;
Tragedy is when you know that two people love each other, but you cannot be together because of reality;
Tragedy is for a person to get involved. Water pulls mountains, and in the end, I still can't grow old together;
tragedy is when you look at your loved one in front of you, you open your lips and find that you have nothing to say;
tragedy is that you shouldn't disturb my inner peace, let me walk on thorns without feeling pain , and can never forget you again.
I forgot what a tragedy is, I just remember that I love you very much. And you say: our love, never has boundaries...

1. 1984-1985 Ethiopia.
Considered one of the most devastating famines in human history.
There were actually two famines during this period - one in the northern region and one in the southern region, both of which were equally devastating. The famine in the north was mainly due to the ruthless carelessness of the government, and the famine in the south was mainly due to the failure of a short rain at that time.
Derg's dynasty is widely regarded as the most important cause of famine in Ethiopia in 1984. When the Derg was in control, there were rebellions in as many as fourteen countries' administrative districts. During this period, many local groups competed against each other to control the country. So, in order to end all these rebellions, the Derg started killing 'suspected' enemies of the government. This period (1977 to 1978) was called the Red Terror in which hundreds of thousands of people were systematically killed by Derg. It would not be far-fetched to say that the seeds of famine were deliberately sown in Ethiopia in 1984 during the Red Terror. During this period, AMC (Agricultural Marketing Corporation), a company set up by Derg in rural areas, began to extract food from farmers to feed the urban population. This move is a direct result of nationwide unrest among the urban population due to insurgency.
Derg managed to soothe the urban population by giving food cereals at very cheap prices. However, this turned out to be a disaster for the rural population, especially the farmers. Derg has fixed the result of very low prices of food cereals and this is a hindrance factor to production in rural areas. Farmers, who are supposed to give food grains their share of AMC, bought grains in open markets that racked up a lot of debt. One of Derg's most hateful moves was the restriction of non-farm activities. Thanks to this terrible move, farmers were not able to participate in non-agricultural activities such as labor export and narrow trade. As a result, they failed to supplement their poor income. During this period, nearly 500,000 farmers lost a significant portion of their income leading to the collapse of commercial farms run in the state. All these things led to a famine in the northern part of the country of Ethiopia in 1984. In the mid-80s, things were chaotic in Ethiopia. Local rebellion, crop failure and Derg's reckless attitude led to a major humanitarian crisis during the aftermath of the famine in Ethiopia in 1984.
Nearly six million people depend on relief food, and waterborne disease and starvation death are rife. During this time, the international community severely criticized the government, and many relief organizations provided food for the affected people. The people who lived in the famine hit part of the country were moved to the southern part. The famine in Ethiopia in 1984 affected almost eight million people. The estimated death toll is one million. Many historians called it the 'Bible Famine' in the 20th century. Many countries, including the United States, the Soviet Union, Germany, Poland, Canada, and Switzerland, are involved in the humanitarian response to famine.
two. Vietnam, Cambodia. Khmer Rouge period.
On December 25, 1978, Vietnam massacred 20,000 Vietnamese Cambodians because of the Red Cambodian, and concentrated 100,000 main troops to advance from the Seventh Road. Along the way, except for a few Khmer Rouge armed forces, there was almost no resistance.
The common people have long hated the murderous Red Cambodians, and they can't wait to eat flesh and sleep, and tear Pol Pot and others into tens of thousands of pieces. In their words: No matter how bad the Vietnamese devils are, they will not exceed Anka (the name of the Red Cambodian people in the country).
Due to the serious internal cleansing, everyone in the Khmer Rouge was in danger, and the army lost its combat effectiveness.
When the Vietnamese army came in, the Cambodian people stood up to support the Vietnamese army, and some Khmer Rouge troops defected and surrendered to the Vietnamese army.
Just two weeks after Vietnam dispatched troops, on January 7, the Vietnamese army captured Phnom Penh, and on the 8th, the Red Cambodian division commander and provincial party secretary Han Sanglin, who escaped to Vietnam during the purge, established the government "The People's Republic of Cambodia". Han Samlin also announced that Vietnam was not an invasion, but helped the Cambodian people to achieve liberation.
The Red Cambodian army protected the party and the government, and the Chinese aid expert group of nearly 10,000 people fled all the way to the Cambodia-Thailand border.
With the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1989, Vietnam withdrew its troops from Cambodia, handing over power to Cambodia and the United Nations.
