A few years ago, when my mother was hospitalized, a middle-aged female patient in the next ward smashed the window in the middle of the night, causing the whole floor to be disturbed. Later, I heard that this woman has mental problems. She had been living in a mental hospital before, but recently because of her physical problems, she was transferred here for treatment.

When a woman was young, due to the pressure of inheriting the lineage, after giving birth to two daughters, she became pregnant again. In order to avoid family planning, she secretly ran out, prepared to give birth to a child, and returned after the raw rice was cooked. Helpless, she was threatened that she would tear down the house if she didn't come back, so she came back with her big belly and her husband, but one step too late, the house had been torn down, and she was taken to have an abortion - it was a boy. Later, she became mentally ill and had getting more serious.

After staying in the hospital for a few days, because of her mental problems, the doctor said that she could not operate, and she went back to the mental hospital.

There is a small river next to our village, and children go swimming every summer. One year, a little boy jumped in and didn't come out again. It was too late when he was caught. In the following year, no one saw the little boy's mother on the street. When she appeared in front of everyone again, she was thin, full of white hair, and her eyes were slack. When talking to her, she would have to wait for a long time to respond. Sometimes Also talking to himself. Fortunately, she also has a daughter. After her daughter gave birth, her spirit has improved a lot, and she can occasionally see a smile on her face.

The couple in the film, while losing their son, also lost hope of living, and the days after that are suffering in pain! The other families are getting better and better, and they have been living in poverty, as if they have no right to any happiness, because it makes them feel sorry for their son!

In the torrent of the times, the brokenness of a family is just a pebble thrown into the water, and it will sink to the bottom in an instant. But for a single family, it is a knife piercing the apex of the heart, and they feel the pain in the heart all the time!

In addition, the male protagonist and the female acted very well, and they fit the role very well. The female protagonist's face was the representative of that era, obedient and relied on her husband in everything. After the male protagonist lost his son, all the sufferings were written on his face. It's just that the young supporting role is a bit unsatisfactory and a bit embarrassing!
