So the boy wrote his name "Joska" on the fog on the car window
Joska finally found himself, looking at his father who was covered in vicissitudes
There is finally warmth in his eyes, although little Joska is still a calm face
At this time, the audience has been unable to control themselves and can no longer hold back the tears of sadness
Some images are only available in black and white
Because there is no color in the story it tells
Spielberg's "Schindler's List" in 1993 in a world of color
A unique "black and white" story
The touch of red on the little girl in the black and white world
It is the only color left by that tragic history for us
And this "Smeared Bird" is even colder
didn't leave us a little bit of color

The description of brutality and cruelty in the film we can choose to close our eyes
For example, burning the dog alive, the crow pecks the boy's head, and inserts the wine bottle into the prostitute's genitals
The struggling horse-drawn carriage dragged to death by the bird seller after he was hanged, etc.
But Joska, the boy in the play, can't avoid this hellish scene
The boy with his incomparably clear eyes
Witnessed the savage, cruel, filthy sins that human emotions are unbearable
Don't think these evils belong only to that cold war age
It has never been wiped out in human civilization
Every crushing scene in the film can be found in reality
And in some countries this kind of cruelty has always been repeated
For example, all kinds of animal cruelty and sexual abuse of children
For example, the rape, torture and murder of a female college student in an Indian bus
Worse than what happened to the prostitute in the movie
