If the heart is trapped, the world will be a cage; where the heart is at ease, where is the paradise on earth?

The first reaction of Dorayaki was that the blue fat man liked it very much. After careful taste, I realized that the bean paste in the middle can also release the original power of red beans when it is sandwiched in time. Old Beijing also has a similar snack "sugar gourd". The amber-like syrup wrapping on the surface looks so beautiful. People who have eaten it are indeed attracted by the red fruit inside. When they bite into it, it bursts out full of sourness. With sweet food as an intermediary, a bitter story is written.

The streets of cherry trees, the yellow train hurriedly passing through the city, and the quaintly decorated dorayaki shop look peaceful and beautiful under the Japanese-style fresh filter; the melancholy middle-aged man makes cakes mechanically every day. The skin is filled with bean paste, and occasionally greets familiar guests. People who don't like sweets work in a Dorayaki shop. Suddenly, someone came to the interview to help, and took out a fresh-keeping box and said, "Please try this." This is the first time my uncle has eaten such a delicious snack.

The natural Mrs. Dejiang, the melancholy store manager Chitaro, and the pure and kind-hearted junior high school student Wakana, interpret their life and growth in the tranquil and beautiful situation. Even if the whole story is not complete, some people say that the filming of life and death is never the best movie, but it is the old lady's departure that makes us feel the warmth that she has always had. A cherry tree left in the world.

The story of the three stages of distress begins here, and they are all about their own souls seeking freedom, the troubles of a young girl—the lack of money at home has trapped the heart that wants to learn, the freedom of the canary—the cry wants to fly away from the cage, Uncle's remorse - he didn't see his mother for the last time after he was released from prison, he could only work part-time because of his debts, he was confused about the future, an old lady. Mrs. Dejiang's childlike innocence is still a warm and lovely person. Her monologues in the play, those poetic and philosophical philosophies told in warm tones

The convenient finished red beans that middle-aged people have been using are seriously considered to be too utilitarian. Dejiang used his own rigorous method to start cooking red beans before sunrise (recalling the red beans with full color and ruddy steaming on the big screen, the artist keeps improving his craftsmanship. The persistent attitude is really worth inheriting, wash one by one, wait slowly, stir gently)

The manifestation of all things is a meditation on beauty. Some people will think that you are "crazy". You have experienced war, lost children, suffered from illness, and been discriminated against. Even in the era of not being isolated, you can still only survive on the edge. To be a craftsman; to be able to make delicious food and make those who eat it happy is really a happy thing; life is not necessarily great, but it needs to live solidly.

From childhood to adulthood, we have been indoctrinated to "grow up to be a useful person", and the direction of the whole society always believes that useful people must be successful people. And the older I get, the more I find that the definition of success is so narrow, and the standard of success is only a small number of people, like a big smoothie with a small cherry on the tip. As long as you do what you are doing and do the things you care about, you can be considered a complete success, and you don't have to become rich and famous. You must also learn how to face your own life and be yourself.

Excellent movies always have the mapping and interpretation of real human nature and life. In the movie, Mrs. Dejiang, the leper, Chitaro, the manager of the dorayaki shop, and Wakana, a junior high school girl, were all trapped in cages. Aren't we outside the movie trapped in visible or invisible cages?
