The rest of my life is poor, just to finish the road in my heart.

"The old man with limited mobility has spent the rest of his life,

Just to finish the road in my heart. "

ˉ

After saying goodbye to his mentally handicapped daughter, the old man decided to drive a lawnmower and drag his RV to visit his younger brother who had not seen a stroke in ten years, more than 400 kilometers away. Along the way, he encountered a throng of young cyclists whizzing past, and he persuaded the runaway girl to make her return home. He also encountered temporary shelters from good-hearted people, but he did not accept extra help from others at will. On the way, he remembered the things he used to be young, and he poured out his regrets with strangers in bars on the road...

ˉ

The scene of seeing my brother is a tearful episode, and there is no more brief and powerful dialogue than this. At the end of the starry night, the film ends, and then I know the meaning of the same shot at the beginning of the film.

——● The 24th part of the 2021 movie

Ps. It's a pity that the actor who played the old man actually shot himself a year later. I like his bright eyes, which fit the image in the film.

ˉ

The soundtrack is very nice, the scenery along the road is so beautiful, and the old man's behavior is stubborn, stubborn and cute, which really makes people cry and laugh.
