I've seen a sentence like this:
"There is no era of peace, only a peaceful country."
Originally, I didn't feel anything, but the Syrian gas attack a few days ago completely made me cut off...
Countless poisoned people struggled in pain and then died powerlessly, many of them children.
When I saw the little boy breathing desperately, his beautiful big eyes filled with innocence and despair, it felt like suffocation.
War never has a privilege for children, it pulls children out of the fairy tale world and throws them into the abyss of darkness.
Those children who died in the war are victims of the war, but those who survive cannot escape the physical and mental torture.
Villain Ball on the Battlefield
The Little Man Ball on the Battlefield is based on the novel My Mother by Finnish writer Hicky Hijertames.
The film has won the Best Picture Award, best director award and best actress award at the Cairo International Film Festival.
A score of 8.1 was not given high.
The story is set during World War II, when Finland fought against Russia.
To protect children in war, they are sent to neutral countries.
As a result, about 70,000 children were sent to Sweden.
The Finnish boy Airo was one of them.
Before he left home, Airo watched from a distance as his parents hugged each other, his face full of happiness.
But the smile froze on mom's face, and sorrow and tears appeared in the family.
Airo's dad was about to go to the front.
Dad promised Mom, "We'll be together again soon." ”
Unfortunately, there are many things in the world that you can't control on your own.
Soon, the mother and son living at home received bad news.
Airo's father was killed on the front lines.
The war was getting more and more intense, and the frequency of fighter jets whistling overhead was getting higher and higher.
The mother who had lost her husband was in great pain, and her anger was all sucked away.
In the end, she chose to hand over Airro to the agency, like the war children, to take him to Sweden to find a foster family.
In the boat port, countless children were sent away here.
There are older children here, and there are also a lot of swaddled babies.
Some of them were silent, some of them were hoarse, and some of them used all their strength to resist.
Airo didn't want to leave, he didn't want to leave his mother.
But he knew he couldn't resist...
He could only choose to quietly follow the agency personnel away.
As Airlo walked off into the distance, her mother ran away crying.
Looking back at his mother, Airo saw only a group of strangers.
In the dark cabin, the floor was full of children.
They cried and cried, and they could not go back to the days when they had their parents around, so they could only wait silently for their fate.
Soon, Airro was sent to a farming family in Sweden.
The first meeting with the adoptive parents was not very smooth.
The couple had very different expressions, a friendly and helpless hostess and a disappointed hostess, Singer.
Singh wanted to adopt a girl.
But it was the boy who came, Airo, who couldn't restrain her emotions, turned around and threw everyone away.
Airro's life in Sweden at the beginning was not very smooth.
He was thinking of his Finnish mother, and he wanted to go home, to Finland.
Airro is cold to Singer, and Singer is tired of Airy.
This pair of newly formed mother and son does not let anyone go.
Airo steals money, doesn't want to go to school, runs away and doesn't return home, and is always trying to find a way to return to Finland.
All this made the already impatient Singer feel intolerable.
Singer decided to send Airro away.
But a series of unexpected things happened later.
Singh said, "When God takes something, he will give you something back." ”
This seemingly rough woman is actually very vulnerable, and as long as there is a little thing that interferes with her, she will become very uneasy.
The reason is --
She lost her own biological daughter.
The little girl drowned in the water, and Singer blamed everything on himself.
She was in pain, she couldn't forgive herself or accept others.
And if such a person can come out, accept others, and love others, he will definitely be a more gentle person than ordinary people.
So she eventually accepts Airo, who also thinks of Singer as a mother.
They both thought the other was a gift from God.
But this is still an empty joy after all.
The effects of war are indelible.
Children seem to be ignorant, but in fact, the damage of war to them is even more irreversible.
Most of the war children who were sent away were killed.
The children were sent to other countries, and one by one they were adopted.
Adoptive families prefer to choose good-looking children, children with cute smiles, babies without memories.
But this also means that many relatives have been separated.
And they may never see each other again in this lifetime.
Even when they come to a place where there is no war, the panic in their hearts will not be dispelled.
Airo, who lives in Sweden, still feels unstable.
Hearing the sound of the plane, he was so frightened that he immediately threw away the bread in his hand and quickly ran into the toilet to take refuge.
In the toilet in Sweden, he waited in horror for the sound of the plane to disappear, as he had done in Finland.
The panic left by the war has left a permanent shadow in the hearts of children that outsiders cannot imagine.
Airro was lucky to have two mothers who loved him.
But he was also sad.
War and displacement prematurely taught him to survive in pain, and his separation from his mother again and again caused him a strong sense of insecurity.
He was always worried that the person around him who loved him might suddenly disappear at some point.
What that war brought him was a knot that could not be untied until he was old.
In this world, war is always happening.
The cruelty of war, needless to say.
If you can make a wish...
I want world peace.
