"The Belliers" tells the story of three deaf and mute relatives who left the family and went to Paris to chase their dreams of singing.
Paula is an ordinary girl. She lives with her mom, mother and brother in a small town in France, and the family makes a living by raising cows and selling cheese. Due to the frequent herding of cattle, milking of cows, transporting hay, taking care of calves... Paula is not as delicate as the other girls, she wears a very ordinary trench coat, and every day except for class, she goes to the market with her parents to sell cheese.
Due to the ordinary and ordinary, she did not have a boyfriend and was ridiculed by Banhua. Seeing the male classmate of the crush kissing the class flower, she could only lie on the shoulder of her friend and mutter. The happiest thing she does every day is listening to music and riding a long bike and then riding the shuttle to and from school.
But her ordinary family made her more mature than her peers.
She would take her parents to the doctor and tell the doctor about her parents' private affairs without expression;
She also learned how to switch the language of communication, so that her father's frank and straightforward words became acceptable: the mayor came to solicit votes, and her father expressed the meaning of "I want to crush you", and Paula said to the mayor: He greets your mother.
She would get up in the middle of the night to take care of the calves that needed to be cared for, and ask the doctor to examine the cows.
When her parents do something that makes her feel ashamed, she can also treat it calmly and not care about other people's eyes...
Mom said that being deaf and mute can block a lot of language that is not good for you.
But Paula, who grew up in a silent family, also learned to be patient.
Most crucially, Paula taught parents to learn to let go and learn to grow.
Paula has always loved music, and the teacher said that she had a talent for singing, and encouraged her to participate in the French radio music competition, and the successful contestants could go to the Conservatory of Music in Paris for 3 months of training.
Paula wanted to go, but her mother couldn't understand why she had left them for Paris. And all the farms, businesses, and daddy's campaigns in the family are inseparable from Paula, if she leaves, what will they do?
Paula's mother thinks it's all her fault because she's deaf and mute, so she doesn't make Paula realize the importance of family, causing her to want to run away.
Paula said, because I'm not deaf and mute, so I'm going to sell cheese here for a lifetime?
Paula says mom isn't a bad mom, she's a perfect mom. It was her parents who gave her the talent to sing and gave her the opportunity to choose her own life.
Paula also enlisted her friends to help take care of the farm and the business.
Mom complains that she's getting more and more helpful, and Paula says she's just starting out, give her some time, she's shrewd and capable. If it doesn't work, it's your problem, not trying hard enough.........
Paula secretly practiced singing without her parents, and finally impressed the audience with her emotional performance, and also let her parents understand how well she sang and how hard she worked for her dreams.
Eventually her parents took her to Paris to audition before the competition, and Paula explained to her parents with gestures as she sang: Dear Mom and Dad, I'm gone, I love you guys, but I'm leaving... I'm not fleeing, I'm flying high, please understand, I'm going to fly...
In the end, the parents accepted Paula's departure, and also understood that when the child grows up, he must finally learn to watch the child drift away from the parents...
Imperfect families are a constraint for some and an opportunity for others. The problem itself is neutral, depending on how we perceive it.
Suddenly I remembered the man in "The Indian Partner" who invented the cheap sanitary napkin making machine, he said that some people complain all day long that there is a problem, that there is a problem, if you want to have no problem, then go to die, and when you die, there is no problem. In my opinion, the problem is the opportunity, and now India is full of problems, so India is full of opportunities. I'm glad I can live with so many problems.
