Mass of Sin and Redemption

I have seen a lot of comments talking about poetry, how talented the director is, what an empty shot, what is called poetry in this turbulent age.
But what I want to see is not these empty words, these comments are labelling.
I would love to talk about sin and redemption.
After so many years, I admit that I also have a lot of guilt and guilt, but before watching this movie, I rarely thought of redeeming my sins, because I know very well that my nature is actually the same as the father of the five children. In the same way, compensation for sins, compensation with money, there is nothing that compensation cannot solve.
In a car accident, our solution is nothing more than to lose money and find an insurance company. Including the doctor-patient relationship, in many cases, the money is not enough. It's true that money is the best solution to a problem.
But after reading "Poem", I wondered why we only know about material compensation and forget about soul redemption. In the film, Miko shed tears for the first time. I remember that it was a chance meeting in a church to do a mass. In Christianity, mass has the process of repentance. I think this is a very good religious tradition, because people can only redeem themselves when they learn to repent. sin. Including the tradition of repentance in both Buddhism and Islam. There is a book called "Confessions", in which readers pick out all the sinful aspects of their human nature for everyone to see. We don't have to have the courage to publicize our sins, but unfortunately we don't even have the responsibility of admitting our sins and self-repentance. The parents of the five children in the movie are actually the abbreviation of this sick society - you can use money to meet a person's material loss after a tragedy, but how to heal his inner wound.
Just ask if your favorite person is accidentally killed, and the perpetrator is willing to compensate 3 million, do you think it is worth it?
Maybe others can't feel the sincerity of our repentance, but if we don't repent, how can we redeem others, and who else will share their pain.
Why is the title "Poetry"? I think poetry is holy and beautiful. This can be seen from a small detail in the film. When the police were talking about pornographic jokes, Meizi clearly showed her disgust, indicating that in Meizi's definition, Poetry is pure and pure, and cannot tolerate any filth and purity. Yang Meizi's definition of poetry is almost my definition.
I want to talk about why she didn't write her own poem until her grandson was arrested. In fact, Yang Meizi could write it, but she subconsciously believed that the sin of her soul had not been redeemed, and she was still dirty, so she couldn't Write poetry.
In Miko's last poem, Miko made her final repentance. He regarded the girl as his sister. This is Miko's poem and hers. The girl is repenting for the holy soul of the girl who was buried for love.
Life can be a joke or a poem. The only difference is whether the soul is clean and holy before entering the earth.

    Li Cangdong, in one movie after another, I know him better and think he is more reserved. In this one-man show, he lets you see almost all of her, but the hidden part is more thought-provoking. After watching the film, discuss with Rabbit the various characteristics of the film, narrative angle, camera style, theme, etc. I suddenly found that although we can analyze his style more clearly, we don't have the immersion and emotion that we had when watching "Oasis".
