This is probably a movie I won't watch a second time, because it's too realistic, and the reality is ugly and depressing. The performances of the actors are impeccable, especially the male lead, who will encounter various obstacles every time he is about to successfully win a lawsuit. It looks distressing.
The moment of real powerlessness is not when the daughter, who is facing a serious illness, refuses the bribe.
Not when I stood on the track in the rain and watched the train run over the boy,
Not when hearing the outcome of a trial in court and being unbearably stunned and saddened.
Not when shiveringly repeating the boy's name to get justice but being pinned to the ground.
It is when choosing justice but only shouting slogans and dedicating meager efforts, but it is simply a battle of beasts and is of no avail.
It is the time to stubbornly believe that justice will prevail, to soothe and invigorate the young minds, and at the same time bear the misunderstandings and the responsibility of a family.
It was when I was screaming at the sky as if I was in the deep sea of tens of thousands of miles, praying for light, but no one responded.
"In the face of interests, human nature can be seen."
In order to achieve the goal, the kindness of human nature is often sacrificed, and some people compromise in the process of perseverance, because those hypocritical people are cunning oil heads who know how to manipulate people's needs and desires. Are compromisers hateful? not necessarily. Just sad, pathetic. Because when they are really powerless to change the status quo, and they can't even go on with their lives, how can they talk about human nature?
[I heard that people are kind but can't understand, I just know that survival is more important than that. ]
Perhaps, not everyone has the ability to stick to kindness.
If you want to stick to kindness, you need capital.
Otherwise, you can only compromise on survival and survival.
This is the feeling the film gave me. Fortunately, the ending did not live up to the kindness of those people, and it was a warm ending. Leaving the male protagonist to walk forward with firm steps amidst people coming and going, leaving behind the stubbornness left after the struggle, continuing to stick to the softness of the heart and guarding the children.
In contrast, the reality is even more chilling. One of the three children rescued by the lawyer committed suicide by lying on the rails with the perpetrator, and the remaining two children were forcibly sent to the orphanage. The lawyer as a fighter also left this cold world because of his own cancer.
The reason why such a film was shot, I think its original intention is to let the society understand and pay attention to this matter, and to awaken the goodwill of more people.
This film, indeed, did it, and even changed the law.
"This film has aroused the continuous attention of the Korean people. Under the pressure of the people's voice and public opinion, the Gwangju police in South Korea formed a special investigation team to investigate the "Renhe School Incident" again, and the persons involved in the case were re-indicted. At the same time, in order to protect the rights and interests of minors, the South Korean government has successively revised and passed a series of bills, among which the "Partial Amendment of the Special Law on the Punishment of Sexual Violence Crimes" (also known as the "Melting Pot Law") is the most famous." via :Baidu Encyclopedia
We fought all the way, not to change the world,
Rather than letting the world change us.
It's just a pity that the people who once fought for change have fallen asleep.
