I don't like that much of the film's educational value is spent in the dialogue between grandpa and granddaughter rather than through the plot.
I want to focus on the death in the film.
For many people, it is difficult to know what kind of funeral they want, because everyone is not willing to prepare for that terrible and sad day. It is difficult to accept; Irritability? We tend to ignore the people closest to us, to listen, to the fact that they too have their own wishes and feelings.
To the end of every life, perhaps the most important and crucial point is love. Only with love can life be meaningful. For those who are about to die, death may just mean enjoying the cessation of life; for the living, it can also mean that the deceased lives in a different way of life, just as the little grandson said, "Grandpa is somewhere in the sky. Look at us", the love of the living for the dead, or the love of the dead for the living, remains.
Life may be unsatisfactory, and we often quarrel over small things, but when we think about who accompanies us at critical moments and anxious moments, it may be precisely those who we often complain about. This may be another function of love - even after anger, disappointment, and helplessness, it still keeps people close together.
Hope to cherish.
