This is a calm film,
as peaceful as a forest, as leisurely as a spring.
Plain but full of warmth,
arbitrary but embellished with bitterness.

Thus, this unique youth film was created,
which accurately captured the moment of youth and frivolity:
at that time, we felt out of place in this world,
at that time, our power was bound by the world,
at that time, we pretended to be Bufan is sensitive and suspicious at the same time.
At that time, we were obviously simple and longing for complexity...

In fact, the whole story is very simple,
but the elaborate details still make people laugh.
The natural slow motion interspersed from time to time is full of beauty, which
unexpectedly fits the theme of the film very well.
It sets off the teenagers who are like the midsummer morning light, young and
innocent, and full of wildness.
