With such doubts, I continued to watch it patiently, after all, we can't expect every movie to be wonderful from the beginning to the end. More often, many seemingly inconspicuous beginnings have unexpected endings, which is why they are so precious.
With the development of the plot, my previous worries disappeared, not only that, but I began to look forward to seeing Victor successfully go to his destination.
There are many stories in the middle, friendship, love, and confrontation. The seemingly dazed Victor has his own insistence that he will never step out of the airport door without formal approval to leave the airport. People with ulterior motives tempted him to escape and tried to arrest him on this pretext. Generally speaking, when encountering such a rare opportunity, many people will be fooled, even if they know there are risks. But Victor, after hesitation, let him find something wrong and managed to escape the trap. Happy for him.
In a closed space like an airport, it is not easy to survive. First of all, you have to have money. Careful Victor found that he could get some coins by collecting the scattered airport carts and pushing them to the designated location, which made him solve the dilemma of starvation. Although this opportunity was later deprived of it. Victor did not lose heart, and continued to search for a way to survive through the eyes of discovery.
In order to gain the goodwill of a female employee, an airport employee asked Victor to inquire about her, and promised to give him a good meal, which he readily accepted. Later, he found another suspended construction site, and with his previous construction skills, he got a good job by accident. It was in such a noisy and closed space that Victor used his perseverance and hard work to make himself alive, and he lived well, and even almost gained a love with a flight attendant. He asked her why she was leaving, and she said it was fate. It can be seen that she fell in love with Victor, but couldn't be with him for various reasons, and Victor seemed helpless about this.
For other people, Victor never insists, he always starts from himself, makes changes to adapt to the outside world, and subtly affects the outside world. He didn't realize he was that special, he was doing what he thought he was supposed to do, that's all.
In contrast, we are more inclined to find various excuses for ourselves. Once we make a mistake, we will push the responsibility to the outside world, and put on a posture that our failure is all because of the unfairness of the world, but we do not find it from ourselves. The reason, let alone any practical action. Victor's story tells us that success (not just money-related) or not has nothing to do with the past. What matters is your heart at this time, your attitude at this time, and your happiness.
