The story of the movie "Song of The Sea" is the same as "The Secret of Kells". The script is a mixture of Irish mythology and secular stories. The main line of the film revolves around the Ben family: mother Bronach is Selkie, the seal girl, Selkie is a sea spirit in the water, and she can take off the seal coat when she goes ashore. Her destiny is to sing. The elves can go back to their other shore. After giving birth to his daughter Saoirse, Bronach left Ben and her husband to kick off the story. They think that because they belong to the sea, even if they come to land, they can’t stay for too long; some think that the husband hid Selkie’s coat, and once the coat is found, they will return to the sea); his father is an ordinary person on a small island The fisherman, who was deeply saddened by the loss of Bronach, and worried that his daughter Saoirse would repeat his wife’s mistakes, threw Saoirse's coat away and asked the children to follow their grandmother to the city; Ben is the eldest son, although Selkie’s Born but an ordinary little boy, he has been thinking about his mother and the stories her mother told him. Although he loves his sister in his heart, he has always resisted Saoirse because of his mother. After knowing that his sister is also Selkie, he gradually I am relieved; Saoirse is a young girl who has been unable to speak. Perhaps she is of Selkie's blood. She was born close to the ocean and also played the conch left by her mother. Her singing can break through the curse and re-inject joy, anger, sadness and joy into the elves. in vivo.
Another clue is the myth: Mac Lir (son of the sea in Scottish mythology) has a glass heart. He has been crying in sorrow, and his tears have turned into a vast ocean, almost without the earth. The Owl Witch Macha (a witch in the shape of an owl, will point The wizardry of elves into stone statues) couldn't bear to see his son in such pain, so he turned him into a boulder. This could have been a story about great maternal love, but because Macha not only sealed the son’s body and mind, but also turned other elves into stone statues, confined all his negative emotions in a glass bottle, and used it for purification. Everything. From here, the story went from the legendary altar to the hearts of our secular people.
The emotional fetters in the movie are certainly heartwarming, but the most direct hits are the glass bottles. In fact, it is not the so-called souls that are imprisoned, but just some things that constantly harass us "anger", "sadness", "jealousy", and "inferiority complex". We hate the so-called negative emotions and want in every way. Drowning them with a bowl and a pot of chicken soup, but when we really leave this emotion, we find that we are incomplete, and we can only have a dull and heavy body like a stone. The two mothers in the movie take care of their children, thinking that love is the only way to dispel the dark clouds above their heads, and why don’t we love ourselves like this?
There can be no happiness without sorrow. Accepting oneself is not about advancing one's strengths and avoiding weaknesses, but tolerating one's own bad and good ones. Wang Xiaobo said that pain is anger towards his incompetence. Who is omnipotent?
Don't be too busy to be tired, don't be too young like Saoirse in the middle section but crawled with wrinkles, don't stop singing.
