Peace is a blessing

Without such a movie, I probably would not have realized that our country's neighbors are still in such dire straits. Women cannot go out alone, women are not allowed to receive education, they cannot sell goods to women... If there is no man in a family, can women just starve to death? The most terrifying thing is the cultural confinement. Women who cannot receive education can only go to exhaustion if they do not enter the body, and even their soul can only wither. Afghan women during the Taliban rule, despite all the improvements today, the cultural gap will not ever be bridged. The protagonist of the film, the little girl Parvana, lives in such a dire social background. The father was imprisoned for trumped-up charges, the younger brother could not even speak when he was young, and the elder sister was to be married. After the whole family was imprisoned because of their father, they could not even get water or buy rice. Seeing that her family was dying of starvation, Parwana could only cut off her long hair, pretend to be a little boy, go out to work, buy rice and fetch water. Although the body has been tortured by the heavy work that this age can't bear, he never gave up the idea of ​​rescuing his father. The ending of the story is that Parvana rescued her father against the backdrop of the outbreak of war, and her mother, along with her sister and brother, also took out the claws of "relatives". Family reunion.

I am very fortunate that I live in a peaceful China, where I can receive a good education, find a stable job, and have enough food and clothing.

At the same time, the people of other countries in the world may still be devastated by war, they may not have enough food and clothing, or even starve to death.

Cherish the present, peace is a blessing.

    Even if you are not in the same society, wearing men's clothes will make you feel a lot easier to live. I think that's enough to explain the problem

The Breadwinner quotes

  • Parvana: What will you do by the sea?

    Shauzia: I'd buy things and sell things like I do here but, for myself. There are people who go to the edge of the water to do nothing! They just sit there and they look at the sea with their sunglasses on, or swim about on floating tubes. So, I could sell them those things.

  • Fattema's Cousin: Son, daughter, which is it? Gather your things, we are leaving now!

    Fattema: I am not leaving without Parvana! We have to wait!

    Fattema's Cousin: Count yourself lucky I am taking you, old woman. The girl and the baby are of more worth.
