A shooting incident completely changed the lives of the two men, and the suffering lasted for 33 years. If there is no such meeting, they will continue to be tortured, but no one can predict what kind of situation the enemy will meet. The highlight of the film lies in this, fully figuring out the psychology of both sides, and using as many details as possible to show the state of mind at that time.
One was dumbfounded watching the murderer kill his brother, and was blamed for a long time by his mother, carrying deep self-blame and hatred for the murderer; the other was impulsively murdering someone when he was young, and the 12 years in prison was enough to reflect on his own mistakes. The work is to resolve such contradictions in order to atone for sin. With the killing of his brother, his parents passed away one after another, and another brother committed suicide by taking medicine. He is the only one left in a good family. Maybe most people have the idea of revenge when facing the murderer who destroyed their own family. 33 years of pain, even five minutes of happiness after killing the murderer, is like heaven, but is it really so? He already has his own small family, has a wife and two lovely daughters, is it worth the thrill of revenge?
The fierce fight between the two at the scene of the shooting was a real self vent, venting their depression and hatred. After the fight, the severe pain all over their body made them calm down and talk and listen. Hatred needs to be resolved. After a happy vent and seeing his family again, he must let go. The future is his current family, not the broken home in the past. When he can let go of this burden, it will undoubtedly be great love for the murderer, and the two men can finally relax.
Heaven is no longer five minutes, but the rest of your life...
