This show is still very touching. Different from previous violent films, the play has been running through the examination and thinking of inner entanglement. Joey escaped from the hospital to escape the court-martial and got off the track of his life, went to wandering and decadent and then entered the underworld to make money to compensate his wife and daughter, then to seek revenge for the murdered Isabelle, and finally woke up and accepted the punishment for what he had done. In the process, he met the nun, a person who also has an unbearable past and a beautiful vision for the dream and the future. Sparks sparked in their contact, inspiring and guiding each other. The other party re-examines and thinks about their past, present and future, and finally, in their life choices, they choose to face the past with self-redemption and find themselves again. The film aroused my thinking about life. When facing the mistakes of the past, whether to continue to conceal and escape or bravely face and accept the punishment, it is very tangled. How to face the mistakes this film gives Our inspiration

Joey: I don't think I'll look like this for much longer.

Joey: [in his letter] Now I go back to the street and disappear. I was alive again for one summer. I'm glad I spent it with you. I hope Africa treats you well. All my love, Joseph Smith.
