The protagonist's life is very good, and there are noble people along the way.

It's not that they didn't think that only death would greet them, but it was stubborn that it wouldn't happen.

    Maybe because I just watched Save Soldiers, it is inevitable that the world described here is too clean. Yes, even if you think it is cruel, it is still a bit too clean and beautiful. But I still like this movie very much. As long as those warm things are there, it's fine. Despite the fact of war, it is actually much more cruel.

    The ending of the film raises the tone of the whole story by several levels. This is not a simple film reflecting the Jews and Nazis in World War II. Human nature is very beautiful. Of course, life’s changing circumstances have their own reincarnations.
