It looks heavy.
Tragedy is killing the good life before your eyes.
Barry Winche (Barry) is a new member of the Air Force. When we first met, the roommates sat around bragging about robbing the bank, which shows the impetuous atmosphere of the barracks. A roommate has a weird temper, because he is allergic to cigarettes, loves cleanliness and other reasons, he is not allowed to smoke and manages all kinds of trivial matters.
Once a roommate took Barry to GAY BAR, and he saw the beautiful transgender dancer Kapanel. When it was difficult for everyone to tell the difference between male and female, his roommate instigated him to ask vulgar questions and pushed him like a rogue. The transgender dancer took him to the backstage, but he behaved very gentlemanly. The dancer asked him to ask questions. He seemed honest and restrained, and finally said :
"What I want to ask is... where did you learn to dance?"
In an interview, Kapanel's character prototype said that her job made her meet a lot of weird and bad people, but Barry is an ordinary boy, he is kind, gentle, understanding, but very rare.
Barry asked for her phone number that day, and the two got acquainted with each other.
Barry's roommate, however, was an alcoholic, deeply repressed, and even neurotic, but he was unmistakably homophobic. Maybe he wanted to test Barry's orientation, but he didn't expect Barry to meet someone in GAY BAR. Jealous in his heart, he always gossips about his private life, and injures Barry in an argument, later guiltily explaining that he was out of control due to a mental defect. Barry is kind and honest, and promises him to put the blame on himself in front of the army, so he can stop meddling.
Barry and dancer Kapanel were secretly dating in private. Kapanel took off her sexy dress and makeup, which was completely different from the style on the stage. She wore pure clothes and had her own friends and life. The shyness of girls in love.
She was always worried that she had not undergone the total sex change operation, afraid that Barry would not be able to accept it. But Barry didn't care and accepted all of her. When the two were together, they had a good time. At that time, the two were rowing a boat in the quiet forest. Barry asked Capanier to sing with his original male voice for the first time.
It's a pity that another lunatic broke into the originally peaceful life, and a 17-year-old boy who likes to talk things out but cowardly becomes a recruit.
The roommate used his mentally ill madness to instigate him to report to the military that someone was gay. Homosexuals were not allowed in the military at that time, and the military learned the name of the nightclub and immediately launched an investigation. Barry knew that his roommate had spoken out about him, but his roommate was innocent. Instead, he confessed to Barry the insignificant private affairs of disguising as a woman when he was a child, as if to please, but also as a hint.
On a holiday, which was also the day Kapanier participated in the beauty contest, Barry was afraid to accompany her because of rumors, so he chose to stay in the military camp.
The recruit bragged in front of everyone that he had done illegal things, and everyone secretly mocked him for being stupid. Barry accidentally inserted a truth, telling the recruit not to say it, no one would believe it. The recruit became angry, and at the instigation of his roommate, he fought with Barry and abused him for being a pervert.
Innocent Barry had already suffered from such discrimination and harassment. He wanted to retreat to a single room and apologized to avoid trouble.
But when they went to bed at night, the alcoholic recruit and his roommate were wicked again.
The roommate always called the recruit to say that he couldn't beat Barry. First, he asked him to anger him when he was sleeping, and then he instigated to beat him with a baseball bat. After pouring the bad water, he fell asleep leisurely.
But who knows, this recruit's small body is brewing ignorance, fearlessness and terrible sex. Really took a baseball bat and slapped the sleeping Barry, and at this time Barry was like a lamb to be slaughtered without any resistance, while Kapanel won the beauty pageant award, and this end, Barry was covered in blood. unconscious.
The recruits are still frantically showing off to their roommates what they have finally practiced. Only then did the roommate realize that this bloody nightmare was real from his sleepy eyes.
That night Kapanel came home and threw herself to the ground after hearing the bad news of Barry's death on TV.
The two who murdered and abetted were eventually sentenced, and both were interviewed at the same time. When facing the camera, the two were still confused and awake. The reporter asked Kapanel if she knew that Barry was always mocked and abused in the military camp? Kapanel knew his temperament no better, and replied indifferently that he was a soldier, and he never complained about these things.
Yes, the kind and naive Barry not only retreats again and again to those villains who look down on them, but also resigns in this ignorant worldly environment. Like he cried after an outburst and said he just wanted to be happy. He doesn't care about his sexuality, he only knows that he has no regrets and no regrets when he is with Kapanel.
Those distorted and superficial values bred at a young age, the terrifying uneducated sexual evils, the selfish love, the venting of discord, no matter how immature and petty evils are, they are all heinous.
In fact, there is no small evil in this world, and all evil is not worthy of forgiveness.
Another tragedy is also that there are always vicious rumors about the transgender love between Barry and the transgender dancer, and the worldly gaze exists in it. How many physical and mental attacks Barry endured, I am afraid only he knows.
Fortunately, at the end of the movie, Kapanel finally fulfilled her wish to have sex reassignment surgery. She wants to be the ideal person in Barry's heart forever, to be a confident, self-improving and real woman. She was really dazzling when she stepped on the stage.
Such a beauty from the inside out, Barry, who was in his twenties at that time, would naturally be fascinated at first sight. After all, beauty is a common hormone, and love is an eternity that transcends everything.
May the world never misunderstand beauty and live up to love.
