Melodious music, a touch of sadness, and a thoughtful theme. There is no dialogue in the film, silence is better than sound. Traditional methods of work have been replaced by modern industrial machinery, and more and more people have lost their jobs. The minaret and tall building representing the social class, lived in the rich and noble people of different classes. Different things in the film are represented by different music. The colorful phoenix represents simplicity and nature, and the black crow represents the modern filthy social system. They fight in this concrete and visual way, and profoundly reveal people's feelings for the modern life that deviates from human nature. dissatisfaction and resistance. On the way, the child met two people, one was a lonely old man, who had a difficult life but was dismissed by a typical capitalist society boss who only cared about interests and had no favors because of his old age and frailty. The other is a young man who lives from 7 to 9 in an assembly line factory like a machine. He doesn't see laughter or friends. He only has a small room of ten square meters that can only be reached by climbing many steps. A box of canned food is dinner. There are all kinds of exquisite commodity programs on the TV, but the young people are tired and buried their heads. This is not a portrayal of the existence of depressed modern people. Finally, the old man returned to the place where the story began and walked into the dilapidated hut that was originally a happy family. He remembered his childhood and saw his father and mother, and I realized that the old man and the young man were the little boy. The interlacing of time and space describes the sufferings of life, the same train, the same hope, and the same fate as his father, the innocent and lovely figure of the little boy has become forever yesterday. A new-born phoenix flew up in the distance, the old man put on a veil of flowers, found the hopeful music that was buried in his childhood, and time went back to the past again... There are too many details to say, only tears are washed away.
