I don't know how to evaluate this movie. This is a story about how a boy who was sexually abused at a young age faces his life and finds his own story.
Excellent movie, the performance of the actors is not to be underestimated, the young male lead, the acting is excellent, the gay male prostitute in the play, how does a child accept himself as a male prostitute? There are many scenes in the play that describe the boy's prostitution career. It is not painful, and he is very content. Maybe the teenager is too young to know what pain is. At this time, the movie has not yet analyzed the boy's inner world, and he naturally accepts it. In this kind of life, when his good friend advised him to pay attention to his body, his reaction was that it didn't matter. In the movie, it was impossible to see whether the boy's mother knew what his son was doing. The mother loved him, but when he was pulled over When a man brought home ********, it was a tragic scene. He came home with an injury and undressed at the door. No matter how young he was, it was time to look at his life.

The second boy, the boy who was also violated, lived in a childhood nightmare, lingering, in order to continue his life, he had to pretend to be in a dream, a dull mother, an irresponsible father, overwhelmed this boy, he was looking for His own past, to find out what happened to him.
At the end of the movie, the two teenagers lie in each other's arms. In the house that changed their destiny, one tells and the other listens. The sad and hopeful picture dilutes the bleakness of the movie and gives the audience a sense of the teenager's future destiny. A new expectation, because only by truly facing it can we forget, a young man helps his companion find his past, and he can face himself again and start a new life.
With this ending, the movie does not lose warmth, although it is very sad.
