Today I watched it again with a little sister, so I recalled the question I had when I watched it for the first time, why in the movie, the little boy failed to find his father after going through hardships in the end? My answer to myself is that for young children, the separation between parents, the absence of a father, can never be undone and made up for. This lack is stored in the depths of memory and in dreams. Even if found, the boy may have grown up, and the father is no longer the one to hug and lean on. Such an animation with a fresh and cute style, a plot that appeals to children and has a profound meaning is really rare!
