Little comfort for us

Perhaps each of us has the time to do a loser
happy does not mean everything has to be perfect
happiness is perhaps remember those small things
such as wearing jeans
a hit or in the "Dragon's Lair" in case
these little things add Being together will surpass our failure.
Perhaps what we can do is to live a good life.

This language sounds like boiled water and inspirational, but after watching the video, I understand that this is a 12-year-old girl with leukemia. If you say it, then these languages ​​become weighty.
If it is filmed with the most ordinary film expression methods, it will turn such a thing into an educational film that loves life, full of craftsmanship. But in this film, the details and seams are handled naturally, and the pace is appropriate. The stories of the four people are interspersed and self-contained, so the theme becomes clear and natural.
Among the experiences of the four girls, the most favorite is the shy and shy girl Lena. At the beginning of the film, there is a paving shot. Before the four girls discovered the jeans, Lena heard that she should swim naked in Greece. At that time, almost fell. While on holiday at her grandfather's house in Greece, she fell in love with the grandson of the enemy of her grandfather's house, Kestos. She was blocked by her family, and she decided to change everything. So in the picture of blue water, blue sky, and white buildings, a girl with black curly hair, dressed in white, stands by the sea, with a confident smile on her peaceful face, and then she slowly takes off her coat , Jumping into the sea with only her underwear, this was the beginning of her change, and the ending was as she wished.
At this time, I admire her courage and her gentle and candidness.
It also reminds me of Hemingway's words: "This world is not beautiful, but it is worthy of our transformation." Those who expect to change deserve to be encouraged, those who strive to change deserve respect, and those who achieve change deserve admiration.
In addition, seeing the environment of Lena’s vacation, I really like the sky and sea in Greece. If it is this autumn weather, we also have to feel "how Greek is the sky".
It is also worth mentioning the experience of another girl, Betty, the little girl she met with Bei Li who was suffering from leukemia, and Bei Li always had a peculiar view of things. When she and Betty lay on the grass looking up at the stars, she said, I am not afraid, but nostalgic.
This little guy said so well!
The other two girls' own experiences with Bridget and Carmen, although compact and reasonable, did not attract me much.
But in general, this film gave me a little comfort.
Love the close-up of the pair of jeans at the end, and on the edge of the front pocket it says: "Bally was here."
