A better world is always beyond imagination.

I saved it in the computer for a long time, and finally finished it in this hot late summer.
The photography is great, the endless view of Africa, the big clouds at the end of the film, the picturesque Danish town. . .
The delicate feelings of female directors and relatively more psychological descriptions.
The attitude of two teenagers to the world.
How should we respond when confronted with violence? To swallow or fight back. Just like the modest attitude of elais's father in the movie, if he returns to violence, it will only be a vicious circle, not everyone has such a calm attitude to deal with the injustice of the world. Christian is full of anger at the world because of the loss of his mother, so he sees the world with hatred, and when dealing with violence, he chooses homemade explosives to take revenge. And the results are never unexpected. What I want to say is the warm ending of the last film, the so-called fate of the two teenagers was not affected by this.
Two lines, the African one looks thinner. Maybe the director wants to show more humanistic care, but still can't do it well.
The name is a lot bigger than the movie wants to show. A better world can never be changed by the attitudes or actions of one person or several people. We have been working hard, and a better world is always in the imagination and outside the reality.

    Tomorrow, it is estimated that there will be many people’s comments to make up for the losses in the past.
