It should be regarded as a very Freudian film, and it is very suitable to analyze it with psychoanalysis. It is a story of murdering a father and marrying a mother, and finally emerges from the shadow of being rejected by the mother. Yingma has a father, but his father is far away on the other side of the earth, and has never appeared from beginning to end. This subconsciously completes the process of killing his father. And the mother is a patient. Throughout the film, Yingma hopes to gain her mother's approval and intimacy. In the subconscious, it is undoubtedly a process of marrying a mother to gain her mother's approval.

In her uncle's town, Yingma gradually came out of the pain of being abandoned by her mother because of her growth. At the end, it is not difficult to find out that everything is actually a self-report of Inmar in the last little house. He has been abandoned by humans into outer space. The dog Leila, who only lived for five months, is self-reported, that dog Thinking of human needs and sending it into outer space, he didn't even ask for his opinion. And Yingma's fate is in line with it. He was abandoned by his father, and because his mother did not need to send him to his uncle's house; at his mother's request, he gave up the stories he wanted to tell, but instead read the books that his mother missed. . And even if he finally arrived in a warm town, even in this home that made him feel extremely warm and happy, he was abandoned, and he was sent to live with his grandma. It's all a complete abandonment, and no one has ever saved his opinion, and unlike Lyra, he at least fought (to live with Sika), but his fight, too, failed.

The end of the film also gives a warm beginning to the story without a beginning. Yingma will finally integrate into this warm town.

    The loneliness and exile of growing up, the little boy played well, but it was very unpopular. The structure of the story is somewhat rigid and lacks change. The double destiny of the abandoned dog and the abandoned person alludes to the fact that in the end, life will still warm us up, and the youth like a dog's face will finally take shape like glass sent into a furnace. Three and a half.

    I regret seeing this film so late. Use a different angle to talk about childhood, innocence, and childlikeness. After leaving his mother and losing his favorite puppy, what was supposed to be a gloomy childhood showed a more interesting side. The inner monologue when the male protagonist looks up at the starry sky, and the scenes of playing with his mother on the beach several times, as if seeing In the shadow of "Four Hundred Strikes", the corners of the male protagonist’s smile look like Mr. Liang, as well as the uncle and the female protagonist who like it.
