The German movie Chick is about a 15-year-old German middle school student named Mike who used to live an ordinary and boring life. His father cheated, his mother drank heavily, his grades were not good, he had a crush on his classmate but dared not confess, until one day the class A transfer student from Russia, Chick, came up. Cheek has a Chinese or Mongolian face and doesn't care about anything. Mike found out that he is also an alcoholic, but his grades are very good. He is the only student in the class who got an A+ in mathematics. With his weird personality, he is not a school bully. Ling, because everyone thought he was the Russian mafia. They were the only ones who didn't invite Banhua's birthday. Cheek came to Mike's house that day and encouraged them to go to Banhua's birthday party to send Mike's portrait of Banhua, and then played a game of Drift under everyone's attention. ,feels good. After returning to Mike's house, after playing the game for a while, he felt unsatisfied, and Cheek asked if he wanted to keep playing like this? Because his mother went to Rehab, and his father and his lover were away from home for 2 weeks, they decided to drive out to play together. The film is about what happens when two teenagers drive themselves along the way. Memory point: The beautiful scenery in Germany, often driving to the forest, the scenery on the road makes me feel that the beauty of developed countries is similar. On the way, I encountered a windmill power station, which was very beautiful. A girl was picked up on the way, and the three of them took a bath in a beautiful lake, where Mike had his first sexual initiation. The whole process was very pleasant, relaxing, and full of youthful air. There is also Richard's piano music on the road, soothing and relaxing. So in the end Mike said he changed after this trip too. No longer focus on the attitude of the class, people are no longer tense, and I guess I will not call myself ugly boring lazy. Adolescence requires such a long journey, with companions, budding, and nature, and people grow up slowly.
