Cruel or warm?

Kieslowski is not necessarily a master who is proficient in love, but he must understand the taste of secret love, the cruelty of pain, and the psychological state of young men and middle-aged women, so he has the warmth of looking back.
After watching the film for the first time, the subtitles are over, and I start from the beginning again. About the close-up of the boy's bandaged wrist, I suddenly found that the film can be watched in a loop, and it seems that I don't care where it starts and where it ends.
A boy's love is like the tense tendons of that age. Although it seems to be unstoppable, once touched, it becomes terribly fragile and slumps down with self-pity. Fortunately, the film is a short film, but only selected this part of the youthful youth. If we shoot a follow-up, when we see Tom who has lost his vitality and became secularized after suffering, it may be even more cruel.
