It's a very warm movie. After watching it, I want to go to the countryside to become a farmer and live a slow life that only focuses on myself and my family. Now the pace of social life is extremely fast, with constant changes every day and all kinds of fragmented information. It can be overwhelming, sometimes even depressing and suffocating.
In the film, the three children came to Provence to spend the summer vacation because of their parents' disharmony. From the very beginning, the discomfort and unbearableness of arriving in Provence, the constant quarrel with my grandfather, to the final reluctance, all of them changed each other through constant tolerance and sincerity and equality after getting to know each other gradually. No matter what kind of relationship it is, you need to be sincere, express your true feelings, and communicate more. Especially when it comes to family relationships, you should pay more attention to the way of communication. Don’t hurt the other person’s heart without any words because they are the closest person and think that the other person will tolerate you unconditionally.
I especially like the unrestrained life experiences of my grandfather and grandmother in the film. They traveled everywhere and have a group of like-minded friends. When they are old, they still live very petty bourgeoisie and punks. As long as people have a young heart, no matter what age they never grow old. When San Xiaozhi registered his grandfather on Twitter and helped his grandfather connect with his long-lost old friend. The scene when the old friends suddenly visited the farm on a cool motorcycle was really real. The surprise and happiness were beyond words in the eyes of grandfather and grandmother. Their arrival also brought back memories of their youth. The way people express their emotions through the years are so subtle and deep, but they are also happy from the heart. When they get together, they sit around the rooftop at night and play guitar, sing songs, and drink small wine. This kind of leisure time is really very pleasant and enviable. I don't know if I'll have the time to get together with old friends when I'm old.
