This movie teaches two things.
The first principle: Childhood can not be deceived. Children have a world of children, a world full of strange things that, to adults, are childish, innocent, but unbelievable; but to children, it is real—not that it is part of the real world , but to say that this children's world affects children's hearts and is closely related to their feelings. So please don't make fun of the kids, please trust the kids. For children, the most lethal effect is not the atomic bomb, but - disbelief and ridicule.
This principle is taught to parents.
The second principle: love your loved ones. Children tend to get stuck in their own world, especially when adults don't believe in themselves. The more imaginative the child, the more likely to withdraw. Because they can't be trusted by adults, the only way they can protect themselves is to close themselves up. At the end of the film, my father said, "I have always been addicted to the fantasy world, while ignoring the relatives around me." I don't know if children can understand this, but the style that has been exaggerated in the film will definitely make children feel to the preciousness of a father's love. To protect children's fantasy world, and at the same time not to let them become withdrawn, there are parents' efforts and the director's good intentions.
This principle is taught to children by the director.
