Is there a better world

In fact, I am still immersed in many fragments of the movie. Maybe I have watched such a detailed movie impatiently for a long time, or maybe it is the female director's subtle presentation in the movie that just touched me. In short, I have no hesitation I think this is my favorite movie I've seen this year.

Denmark
's impression of Denmark is actually very limited. At the earliest, it was Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tale, and then it was a fairy tale about the Danish football team who came off the bench and won the championship. To sum up, the impression of Denmark It is a fairy tale country with rich, lazy and high happiness index in northern Europe.
But in this film, except for the occasional beautiful scene, or the endless wheat fields, or the calm and clear water, or the child is sweet and peaceful with his father, it is almost difficult for me to imagine Denmark in China is on the hook.
The Swedish accent is mocked, the car mechanic is brutal and domineering, the older kids bully the weak in school, and everyone has pain or stress that they need to deal with alone.
Maybe it’s happening all over the world every moment The script of the script. It may be different unfortunately, but everyone has their own scriptures that are not so easy to read. Although a

child
still thinks he is young, twelve years old is still a very far age. I have almost forgotten that time. Thinks like an adult, has his own likes and dislikes, and has his own judgment on things.
Two fathers, one tells the children about the victory they don't understand, and the other tells the child about the death choice he doesn't understand.
Just Like in the confession, or everything about Lily Zhou, right and wrong are more clearly defined in the world of children, which also makes the conflict of human nature more acute.
I want to take revenge on you, because you have hurt me. They don't understand if left Why do you want to face the right face when you are beaten in the face? Fighting back with hurt seems to be the best way.
Adults try to explain the rules in their world. Probably only when children become adults, they can Learn more or less.

Africa
The doctor would rather be angry than save the heinous villain. Everyone has the right to life, or, for the doctor, the wounded is just the wounded.
And the big villain said a word, "In this place , everyone has killed someone. As long as I don't kill you, we can still be friends." Maybe, survival is the first rule. Those rules and regulations, either morality or rules, are very much later. Or, if those cruel words were replaced, this is how our lives are portrayed. The

violent
doctor cured the bad guy's leg, only to watch him be beaten to death. I don't feel the gang attack at that moment. There must be a lot of moral judgment-like anger in it, and maybe a lot of it out of a desire to get rid of an enemy who is a threat to oneself, a herd mentality, and a kind of release from a long-suppressed life of fear. What about the
doctor? He looked So bewildered. It should not be what he expected to treat violence with violence. In
another scene, after the doctor was beaten by an arrogant car mechanic, he floated quietly in the lake and stroked his cheek with his hand
. After experiencing violence, or being treated by violence, how can he really calm himself down? In his heart, does he also have the urge to tit-for-tat like children or those people?

Repressing
Freud believes that no matter whether it is pain or happiness Experiences are arranged illogically and randomly in the subconscious mind. Painful experiences are repressed by repression, unknown to the public, but become incentives for psychological or physiological perversions.
Every character in the film represses his pain .Doctors
face wars and casualties.Women cannot accept betrayal.Men have to suffer the loss of their wives.Children believe their father killed their
mother.Odd,depressed,cowardly, paranoid.They may all have The soil that takes root and sprouts, it's just that more often we don't know it.

Release
The successful explosion and the unexpectedly approaching death seem to have healed people with trauma. The child and the father are reunited, and the old couple embraces again.
Is it a new story to let go of the past, or a new wound to cover up The scars of the past.

Which is better? Denmark, which is considered a happy civilization, or Africa, which is still war-torn. The world of adults or the world of children.
Maybe we all have our own answers.
