The British movie "Aftermath", from the background of the story, took place after Germany was defeated in World War II. The British army took over Berlin, which was almost in ruins, and carried out an iron-fisted purge to maintain the newly established new regime. The aftermath of the war is far from subsided. . From the perspective of the characters' psychology, the trauma of the war and the damage caused by the war are still occurring violently, and it is a long and arduous process to eliminate the aftermath. It's a time of conflict and a flashpoint. Between the vanquished and the occupier, between the British and the Germans, inside the British family, between the husband who is busy with his work outside, and the wife who is still in the pain of losing her son, the story of what happens is that these contradictions are released, result of a collision.
All because of war. Enemy countries bombed each other, the wife was killed here, the son was there; the husband fought against the enemy, and the front was victorious but could not protect the son in the rear; these are not just playing a moonlight song together. Dissolving hatred is not something that the heroine can finally return to her husband and be safe. In war, whether it is so-called just or unjust, it is the people who suffer disaster and suffering.
War makes people's selfish desires and ugly nature manifest to the greatest extent, and intensifies conflicts between different races, even the same race and the same family. War is the highest form of conflict, and everything that happened before and after is difficult for an adult who has experienced hardships, let alone a minor child, a girl. War cannot train a tolerant and tolerant man, let alone an angelic loving mother. The result can only be human disasters, broken families, and perverted hearts.
"Aftermath" is not a story full of passion, and both the British and the Germans are restrained when it comes to expressing their emotions. After the war, the psychological confusion of these men and women broke out in an instant, and returned to the original state. This difficult healing process, such confusion and entanglement, is a state of aftermath.
