just the audience

I finally finished watching this movie.

Because he has been living in the central part of the country, and because China's own racial issues are not prominent, it is difficult to empathize with and resonate with the situation of black people described in the film. Just patiently watching other people's lives as a viewer.

All the plots, character encounters, story backgrounds in the film...I don't know anything about it. The only thing in common is that we are both women. In this patriarchal society, we will inevitably suffer unequal treatment, and sometimes we do not know it. Because we humans are still in a stage of progress, many problems need to be explored and interpreted gradually. The prophets are always in the position of being sacrificed. Only their sacrifice and resistance can bring about the progress and awakening of the entire human race.

The sisters in the film are such prophets. They use their efforts to change the people around them, and by extension, to influence all mankind. They are lucky because they finally changed other people's misconceptions and won the respect and status they deserve. This is also the hope that the director brings us. It is with this kind of beautiful hope in life that we can work tirelessly and never stop.
