I like her. She has black hair and drooping shoulders. She goes to church with her mother, picks flowers from the roadside to give to her sweetheart, and is moved by the philanthropist who takes care of the poor. She is Maria.
Kabylia is hot-tempered, arrogant, philistine, irritable, deceived, sober and angry, praying for change, cursing the Virgin.
Until one day, under the hypnosis of the magician, the sleeping Maria woke up. She returned to the age of eighteen, with long hair reaching her shoulders. She went to church with her mother in a reserved manner, picked flowers, danced, and faced her confession, discreetly confided: Is it really? Please don't deceive me... After sobering up, she hid in the theater and refused to go out in the face of the booing crowd.
But someone eagerly invited her to drink and told her: "I swear, I have never felt so strongly tonight. When that charlatan said 'I love you' in the name of 'Oscar', your The answer was so gentle and careful, I was moved, and my heart hurts. I'm sick, and it's really hard to accept. Don't be unhappy. Some things won't be sullied by this vulgar society. Even in those There will always be someone in the crowd who mocks you who understands you, understands you, and appreciates you. You staged a tender and touching love drama, and I am still deeply moved, beyond words. What makes me the most It's touching that deep down in you, you're still as pure as you were when you were 18."
Kabidia, still suspicious, grins contemptuously, and leaves rudely, trying to convince herself to reject the sudden and dangerous kindness. And I have tears in my eyes. When they parted, Kabylia was going to get on the tram, and the man kissed the back of her hand lightly. For a while, her eyes were full of sweetness and tenderness, and then she was shy. girl. Suppressing these untimely thoughts, she no longer believes that she has such luck, nor that men have such tenderness, and her heart is full of anger of being teased. Maria and Kabylia alternate in her heart. He said in a rough voice: What are you doing~ I escaped on the tram. Seeing this, do you still think she hasn't fallen?
This street girl with a sweet dream in her heart was deceived again. Of course I was also deceived by myself. The scene at the beginning of the film is repeated again. By the lake, Maria is immersed in the beautiful twilight, but her boyfriend is absent-minded and sweating frequently. "You... can swim?" "No. My ex-boyfriend stole my bag for 40,000 riels and pushed me into the river and almost drowned. Those men only want money from women. Unlike you..." She Finally realized that something was wrong. This is the man who sold her house and took out all her savings to marry him far away from home. It is ironic and shameless to say "I don't care how your money came from". She shoved the bag into his hand and begged him to push herself down the lake. She lay on the ground, disheartened and lazy, looking at the man who didn't dare to move her, hugging her bag, her house, her countless shameful nights, and fled as if flying. I wish it was at this time that the magician picked her up and said softly, "Okay, okay, it's over."
The twilight was getting heavier, and Kabylia got up from the ground and slowly left the lake area. Is life going on?
On the road, a group of young people were singing and playing the piano with bare feet. Kabylia looked at them and slowly smiled... You want to say that her pursuit of love is stubbornly ridiculous? But ah, there are some things, you only know after love...
At this time, are you Maria or Kabylia?
