The father took the little girl to ride a bicycle through the forest path and up the high slope. She rode her car briskly and gradually surpassed her father. As they passed a tree by the roadside, the father stopped and leaned his bicycle against the tree.
The little girl looked at her father puzzled, and her father squatted down, hugged the young her, and walked down the roadside slope.
Below the slope is a sea, and a lonely boat is tied to the humble ferry.
The father looked at the boat, then looked reluctantly at his daughter, who was standing on the edge of the slope, and rushed up. After hugging the young daughter tightly, he drove the boat without looking back, slowly. Drive slowly into the distance.
The little girl stood on the slope, running back and forth eagerly, watching her father's departing back, until she could no longer see it.
She turned around to help her car, and resolutely left the place where her father disappeared.
2) In
the dark evening, the sun gradually goes down.
The little girl has grown into a slightly older girl, and her bike has grown a little bigger.
She rode her bicycle and walked across the high slope that her father took her to ride. After losing her father's protection, she gradually struggled.
She came to the place where her father left, got out of the car, watched silently for a while, and then silently rode her car back along the road.
The bicycle left by my father when he left is still leaning against the tree alone.
3)
The melodious sound of the Russian accordion gradually turned into a messy piano note, and the girl's world also turned into late autumn. The wind swayed the trees violently, and the leaves rustled.
It was probably adolescence. The girl who had grown into a young girl pushed her bicycle and walked up the high slope with difficulty. It was the same high slope, but she was still slender, but she moved extremely hard.
She came to the place where her father disappeared. This time, she didn't get out of the car, she just stopped for a while, and then was speeded away by the strong wind on the way back.
She has gradually become sensible and began to understand what some things mean.
Four)
Later, the girl became a little bigger, and the high slope became no longer as difficult to climb as it was when she was a child.
In the rustling of rain, she rode her car again to the place where she parted from her father. It was raining, and the ground was full of puddles.
The bicycle left by her father had disappeared, and she got out and stood silently watching. Then, in the rustling rain, she rode her car away.
5)
When a girl has friends, she always rides a little slower when she is with her friends. She no longer deliberately ran to the place where her father left, but whenever she passed there, she would stop the car and look out. Her friends beckoned to her from the front, and in the roar of the waves, she stepped on the pedal and continued to move forward with her friends.
6)
Later, when the girl has a boyfriend, she no longer needs to pedal hard by herself.
She sat in the back seat of her boyfriend's car and passed the place again.
She didn't make a sound, just leaned her body slightly, and then slowly leaned back on her boyfriend's generous back.
The breeze lifted her skirt, and her boyfriend drove her into the night.
With a girl who is cared for by her boyfriend, she is no longer afraid of walking at night.
7)
The girl is married and has a child of her own.
They came to the original ferry together.
The child was young and innocent, and did not understand the meaning of the ocean, and played carefree on the shore; the husband sat by the ferry, looking into the distance thoughtfully.
The girl who has become a woman still stubbornly stands in the place where she watched her father go. The breeze blew her hair and the clouds on the horizon.
8)
Later, winter came.
The trees by the road were withered to their branches, and the road was covered with snow, and the sound of jackdaws could be heard in the distance.
The girl, wearing a thick coat, came to the place again.
This time, she slowly descended to the ferry port. The place covered with turbulent sea water gradually dried up, and the outline of the land appeared. Where her father left, there was a vague path.
Nine)
Time flies, the girl has grown old.
She was too old to ride a bike and had to push her bike all the way to the place.
Along the road, there were children riding cars and galloping past her, just like her when she was young.
She came to the side of the road and tried to stop her car, but as soon as she left, the car backed up. She helped the car up and tried to stop again, but as soon as she left, the car fell to the side of the road again.
The third time the car fell, she gave up.
She looked back at her car and went downhill.
The original seawater has completely dried up, and waist-length grass has grown.
She went deeper into the grass, through the thick grass, and found the stranded boat carrying her father away.
She curled up into the side of the boat and fell asleep peacefully.
10)
Suddenly, she seems to hear something and wakes up.
She looked into the distance, slowly got up, and ran.
As she ran, she grew younger and lighter, until she became the age when her father's bicycle disappeared for the first time in her life.
Father appeared in front of her, and he looked at her quietly, as if he had never left.
This is a short film that delicately describes a person's life, although it only takes 8 minutes.
In this short film, the wheels are like annual rings, and the circles that run over are all years.
The place where her father left has forever become a gap in the girl's heart. She was lost there, complaining, missing, or licking her wounds alone, thinking about life and death.
In the journey of life, passers-by come and go; a friend cannot accompany you forever, and a partner can only guard you for one ride.
More, it is a person's thinking about loneliness, life, and, at certain moments, certain scenes, the deep nostalgia for those who have left, but never seem to have left.
Thank you, Dad.
I didn't give too much spoilers to this article, but I hope my interpretation is just so straightforward that you can understand what the director is talking about, without being rude because you can't understand the subtle details; it's obscure enough, so that you There is also the ability to personally perceive those delicate plots, and you can still be moved.
This short film, probably only those who have experienced life and death can truly understand it.
