Campus life should be the most innocent and happy memory of a person's life.
But if you meet a teacher like Yang Yongxin in a school like "Yuzhang Academy", I am afraid that it is really a nightmare.
The "Yuzhang Academy" and Yang Yongxin's distorted human nature education method has attracted social attention because of the exposure of the news.
However, their end result was simply shutdown.
Yang Yongxin's administrative position is still the vice president of the Linyi Mental Health Center, and not only has he not been arrested, but he is still sitting in the clinic.
A recent news item showed that he also attended the opening ceremony of the psychiatric training class.
In fact, as early as half a century ago, there were such schools and teachers in Denmark.
The movie I want to introduce today can be called the Danish version of Yang Yongxin and Yuzhang Academy.
The film, based on the true experience of a pair of brothers, has a Douban rating of 8.7.
Someday
There's going to be a day.

His 14-year-old brother Eric and his younger brother Irma, who is less than 10 years old, are the protagonists of this unfortunate encounter.
The two children had lived poor but carefree lives.
Her younger brother Irma was unable to walk easily on Earth because of some deformities in her legs.
So he loved astronomy and dreamed of becoming an astronaut flying to the moon.
Although the elder brother Eric is rebellious and stubborn, he always takes care of and protects his younger brother in everything.
Their father committed suicide a few years ago, and the mother had to raise two children alone from morning to night.
The two brothers, who neglected discipline, often stole things they had no money to buy, and the adolescent brother was caught stealing pornographic magazines.
And the younger brother also stole the telescope for stargazing.
Finally, one day, my mother, who was suffering from cancer, fell ill.
The only relative, the uncle, was unable to take care of the two because he had no income, and the brothers had a history of theft, so they were sent to a boarding school as a problem teenager.
Mother promised to pick them up at Christmas.
However, this boarding school, which is hailed as the best boarding school in the country, is the beginning of a nightmare for two children.
The school's principal, Heck, is a violent man.
He firmly believes that only through corporal punishment can children truly obey and guide them to the right path.
In addition to harsh corporal punishment, he also subjected teenage children to hard labor, completely enslaving them as child labor.
As soon as the brothers arrived at the militarized school, they were given their numbers like prisoners.
Life here is indeed like a prisoner, and everyone lives trembling.
Shout insincere slogans, whether it is eating or before going to bed.
The first day the two brothers saw Headmaster Heck, they were struck by reality.
The headmaster asks his brother Irma what he wants to do when he grows up, but Irma is slapped when she answers "astronaut".
At that time, human beings had not yet landed on the moon, and the headmaster said coldly: Arrogance cannot achieve anything.
The subtext is: be realistic, don't dream.
But to trample on a child's dreams in this way is probably only to destroy his self-esteem.
In addition to attending classes, children spend most of their time engaged in manual labor.
Moving stones, digging dirt, carpentry, cleaning toilets, and even washing the principal's car.
The older brother begged the principal not to let his younger brother, who had a deformed foot, do heavy work, but was slapped several times by the assistant principal:
"Whatever the headmaster says, you can't resist!"
The relationship between classmates is also like the law of the jungle, and a pitiful amount of food must be grabbed.
Bullying by older classmates is commonplace.
In the principal's view, corporal punishment is the best education for children who have "problems".
In this camp-like school, all the teachers embraced "corporal punishment education."
The only normal teacher is the newly appointed female teacher, Lillian, who does not agree with the principal's violent education method.
The two brothers, desperate to escape, ran desperately through the thorny wilderness.
A passing van gave them hope, only to be sent back to the hellish school again.
The escape brought the brothers to a harsher punishment.
The principal asked all the students to line up to slap the brothers, otherwise everyone would be frozen outside.
"If you don't become an abuser, you will also be punished."
The principal does not have to do it himself, he only needs to use the "students persecute the students" method, which achieves the effect of punishment and deterrence, and also distorts the humanity of these children.
And most heinously, the secret pedophile sexual assault crime in schools.
Late at night, a child was taken away by the teacher while crying.
The next morning, he struggled to get out of bed, showing a look of pain.
What kind of horrific experience he had encountered was self-evident.
The next detail is terrifying.
The younger brother was found by the teacher, and he was pulled out and ridiculed by everyone.
And the child who was raped also joined the "criticism fight" around him, and a vicious and hateful smile gradually appeared on his face.
The expression seems to say: Why is it only me who suffers, and you don't want to live well.
The younger brother was asked to stand naked in the yard until the sheets dried.
He finally failed to escape the perverted teacher's poisonous hands,
The perverted teacher threatens him to rectify his brother if he does not cooperate, and the brother who is violated to the point of blood fainting in the toilet.
The perverted teacher, on the other hand, falsely claimed that it was the student who did it, and he didn't know anything.
Only Lilian was relentless in pursuing the truth, but her dead-hearted brother was silent.
He didn't believe the new female teacher could save him.
When the prosecutor came to inspect the school, the children were dressed up so that there was no trace of abuse.
The older classmate told the brothers that if they wanted to survive here, they would turn themselves into thoughtless ghosts. Only if you are a ghost, you will not have trouble.
However, the news of her mother's death broke the last straw.
The two of them burst into tears, but they were beaten by the headmaster because they disturbed the quiet of the meal.
The kind Lillian resigns because she can't stand the headmaster's atrocities, and the only person who really cares about the children also leaves.
When the uncle came to visit the brothers, he also noticed that something was wrong.
He asked to bring back two children, but was refused because he didn't have a job.
The principal was reluctant to let the brothers go for fear that their evil deeds would be exposed.
Paper, however, could not contain the fire, and the newly appointed prosecutor raided the school.
He was shocked by the scene before him: the children who were working were dressed in rags, and everyone had wounds on their faces.
But in the face of his inquiry, no one dared to tell the truth.
Children no longer believe that adults can help them.
Even his brother Eric chose to shield the headmaster.
He thought he was about to turn 15 and would be able to get out of here.
So, he didn't want to offend the headmaster.
A few days later, however, the headmaster told him that it was impossible to let him go.
The brother was again beaten to death for resisting.
In order to save his brother, the younger brother pretended to be obedient and finally got a chance to go out.
He immediately went to Teacher Lillian, who had resigned, and asked her to take her to the police, but was turned away because he could not produce evidence.
At this time, the younger brother knew that only by sacrificing himself and presenting "evidence" could he save his brother.
So he wore a homemade space suit and deliberately smashed the principal's car.
In this clumsy and heart-wrenching way, the principal's evil deeds were finally exposed.
Prosecutors who arrived overnight, accompanied by Lillian, launched an investigation into the school.
The brothers were taken to the hospital for treatment, and finally escaped from the danger of life under the care of Lillian.
The students, who had previously faced the prosecutor and did not dare to tell the truth, were encouraged by the brothers to finally stand up and accuse the school of crimes.
In the face of the accusations, the principal also argued that he was for the good of the students.
"For your own good" has become a fig leaf for adults to act recklessly towards children.
In 1969, mankind realized the moonwalk, and the dream of his brother Irma came true.
However, the headmaster's original definition of him was arrogant and unrealistic.
Irma, who is classified as a problem teenager, is actually both brave and imaginative.
Does he really need correction?
The story takes place in 1967, more than half a century later.
To this day, how many evil deeds are still committed in the name of "I am for your own good".
How many "Yuzhang Academy" and "Yang Yongxin" continue to correct the so-called "problem teenagers"?
Parents who send their children to such schools by hand, if they can try to respect their children's personality and thoughts.
They will not wait for the child to fall into a spiritual wound that will never heal, and only then will he know that he will regret it.
The film ends with more than just telling us that this is a true story.
And almost all of the students who come out of the school suffer from mental illness and need to take medication for life to treat depression and fear.
I hope that such a tragedy will not be repeated.
