Provence in the summer is passionate and unrestrained. Leia has experienced ups and downs in her first love. Adrian is dating two girls at the same time but still misses Margaery. Everyone's stories are laid out, and the contradictions and conflicts make it more dramatic and exciting. On the contrary, as the only child appearing on the cover of the film, Theo's story line appears much thinner. He never opened his mouth to say a word, and seemed to be a dispensable figure. But again, it doesn't seem like that. The beginning of the movie starts with his sleeping face, with long eyelashes, sound asleep. He was the first to establish contact with his grandfather. The close-up shot gave him and his grandfather the hand they held, the big one holding the small one, and they walked together like this. Grandpa took Naive him to see rabbits, watch chicks, and water the land. It was he who first saw the kiss between his sister and another man. One of the episodes that really impressed me was shot from his point of view. There's a silent clip after Grandpa's olive oil won a gold medal. In that instant, as normal people, we felt quiet and uncomfortable. But in fact, his world has always been like this. He couldn't hear what his grandfather was cheering and writing, he could only see his grandfather walking through the trees, his mouth kept opening and closing, as if he was urgently telling others something. I was worried at first, I don't know why in my mind, seeing that he is a deaf child, I would feel that my grandfather disliked him, or that my brother and sister didn't take him to play, but the whole movie never appeared from beginning to end. He was a deaf-mute child, and no one accused him, not even his grandfather, who was extremely disgusted with these children at the beginning. Everyone treats him as a treasure, his grandfather and grandmother love him, and his brothers and sisters love him very much and play with him patiently. In the end, he was pure-hearted and led his mother to his grandfather. In the eyes of older brothers and sisters, Provence seems to be a remote and uninhabited place, but in his eyes, it is actually just a piece of soil for fun. Although he can't hear or say anything, he has the purest heart. He has been looking at the world with the simplest eyes. He is the attractive place at the beginning of the film, the bridge to break the awkward situation between grandparents and grandchildren, and the representative of innocence and kindness. He doesn't seem to be that conspicuous, but it is essential to take a closer look. Provence will not always have summer, but Provence in summer will always have a story.

    Basically, there are no major highlights. The whole film is actually saying that the southern region has beautiful scenery, simple people, rich resources, and it is not easy for local governments to generate income. Chloé Jouannet is pretty good looking. In addition, the middle group of old hippies singing Bob Dylan is quite touching.
