The protagonist is a tough and handsome boy. The film shows youth. They are flamboyant. They don't sleep and climb over the wall in the middle of the night. They dare to pee on the steering wheel of the dormitory. They are full of energy. , they do not understand love but their hearts are sincere. The love of youth is always sad, and regret should be one of the labels, especially when the authorities announced the lifting of the ban. Although they welcomed the first batch of female classmates in name, in fact those adults were still conservative. The relationship between men and women is so close to the enemy, let alone homosexuality. The two people, one has a secret love, and the other is well aware of it but always refuses to avoid it because of fear. When he came out, he was restrained and restrained, but he couldn't help it. This is youth, a fluffy boy who doesn't understand love, his eyes are ambiguous, his language is tentative, he moves forward cautiously, but he is clumsy and cute.

As for the film's attempt to dig deeper topics, such as politics or homosexuality's social positioning and pressure and prejudice, I don't think it's appropriate, but rather cumbersome. I only feel that the director is powerless.

But aside from these films that only treat him as a youthful homosexual theme, it's still OK, the shots are beautiful, and I like the part that interspersed with the priest's dialogue about love and the alternate narrative of reality at the beginning.

Personally, I don't like this ending. The reunion is too cliché, too coincidental, and a little overwhelming. I'd rather they never see each other after graduation, and that's it. In the end, it is explained that Banban is only the part of a tool person, and it can be expressed in a different way, not so straightforward or not at all, starting from other subtle places and implicitly implied. Also, time is a butcher's knife, oh no!
