Ordinary people, through efforts to change the ordinary stories of reality.

Malawi in the film is very backward, even if the background of the story is around the "911" incident in the United States.

Villagers in Malawi can only obtain information through radio, and radio is not available to everyone.

The local climate is weird. Either the sun for several days or the rain that comes on the scene, the farmers can only look at the sky because they don’t have an irrigation system and agricultural technology.

The Malawi government is corrupt and incompetent. It has no sense of crisis. At the request of the World Bank and other world poverty alleviation agencies, it sold all its food reserves to neighboring countries. Indulging in the behavior of tobacco companies in the country, wantonly cutting down trees, reducing flood resistance, and damaging the rights of local residents.

Most of the residents in the movie have low education levels and are relatively ignorant. Compared with the science and technology they don't understand, they believe in the gods they believe in.

In this context, it is very incredible that the protagonist is born, who believes that science and technology can change the status quo.

The film has a long foreshadowing, and perhaps it is these foreshadowing that might give birth to a character like the protagonist.

    I love social problem dramas, and I'm tired of endless love stories and the subtle frailties of human nature. So from the bottom of my heart, I like the sense of power in this movie. And because he was once extremely poor, he felt the same way. Movies have a clear social function. If you deny this, the movie will be abandoned. The same goes for novels.
