The only light in the dark tunnel.

"Some people used to live in a tunnel. In that tunnel, their only light was the light in their own heart. Long after they escaped from that tunnel, they still light up others around them." I




cried several times.

When Zhen Ai gave birth to her second child and returned home from the hospital, her mother dropped her infant baby, and Zhen Ai fought desperately with her mother to protect the child.

When Zhen Ai found out that she was infected with AIDS, she couldn't write any words except—why me? Teacher Rain asked her what was wrong, and she wept bitterly and revealed the despair in her heart - no one loves me, no one will love me. To me love is the tyranny of my mother, the rape of my father, and love has never given her the dignity that life should have. She is angry, she is sad, she is desperate. Maybe it was when Teacher Rain said to her: Love is not like that, it is not love. True love is when people are willing to live and live well for the person who loves her. Your two children love you. I love you too.

She said I'm not afraid of death, it's just what happens to my child when I die.

————————
From a psychological point of view, the treasure at the beginning of the movie is actually a bit of borderline personality disorder, which comes from having a mother who "I hate you anyway".
The cherished childhood and teenage years were spent in darkness, the father who abused her, denied her mother, raped her, made her twice pregnant and gave birth to the child. She has never felt warmth and love in her family.
But she also never gave up her desire for beauty. The body that swayed freely with the music on the seemingly untouchable stage, the bright smile... always flashed in her most desperate, even dizzy state, when she Wake up and face the harsh reality again.
Despite the difficulties, she never chose to give up completely. Maybe this is her luck. In fact, she chose to save herself. The only light in the dark tunnel is the light within.

1. The difference between Zhen Ai and mother may be that when the misfortune of fate comes, Zhen Ai does not give in, but chooses to identify with self-worth, although this process is very difficult.
Accept the hard part of fate. Don't look for a scapegoat outside. Instead, strengthen yourself and light up your inner light.

2. Maintain the thirst for knowledge. Zhenai has always been a child with good grades. She loves math and has a crush on math teachers. These are very important psychological supports.
After leaving the regular school due to the second pregnancy, I went to a special school on the recommendation of the school teacher. With the unremitting love and encouragement of the gentle and kind Teacher Rain, I began to literacy, read, write - express myself. Step by step, open yourself up to the real pain.

3. For a mother, Zhen Ai is her rival in love; however, for Zhen Ai, her children, whether they are a daughter with Down syndrome or a healthy son, are precious gifts to her, and her faith is very strong. Simple: she will not let her children suffer the hardships she has experienced, she will give them the greatest maternal love, accompany them, and will not send them to social welfare institutions.

4. When cherishing Ms. Rain, it is a window that God opened for her. Of course, the important thing is that she is willing to see more beautiful scenery through this window. With vision, she can continue to dream and realize it .

5. The humble life has changed because of self-respect and identity.

6. Live with hope, and life will have surprises.

7. When Zhen Ai gave birth to Ah Buda in the hospital, she met her boyfriend who is a nurse. This is another gift from God. Since then, life has the fetters of warmth, it will not give up easily, but has infinite courage.

    The best supporting actress must be Monique...

    The film tells the story of a fat black girl who struggles with a desperate life through a large number of subjective shots. The story is good, the actors are great, and the editing is also very good, especially the rape scene at the beginning of the movie. Only a few shots are very visual and emotional. The editing of fantasy and reality in the film is also quite bright. However, there were several superfluous mistakes in photography, and the excessive narration and soundtrack in the whole film did more harm than good.
