Many people believe in the truth that if you look, you will have an answer. In fact, this logic is not necessarily accurate, because in real life, the answer is often not easy to find, even if you try to find it for a long time, there is a high probability of disappointment. Born to look, but after a lifetime of searching, it seems that some people have found it, but whether they have really found it, or whether they have just compromised with time, who knows. We are always moving towards the people we expect to be, and we don't know if those who are seen as role models have their own examples.
The movie recommended to you today is a story about searching, this film is called "On the Other Side of Life", which is the story of three families interlacing with each other, in the same timeline, these three families intersect with each other, and then change, and finally they find something, lose some people, and turn to embark on the final journey to continue searching.
"On the Other Side of Life" consists of three short stories, which are related to each other and give birth to three different lives. The man's family only had his father living with him, and after his father retired, he found a special woman as his future partner in his old age. However, in one quarrel, her father accidentally killed her, so that the long prison disaster ended the family's tranquility. The male protagonist learned that his stepmother engaged in this kind of behavior in order to provide for her daughter, so the male protagonist embarked on a search for a foreign country.
The mother's daughter, the central character in the second story, joined the anti-government resistance movement in her hometown and was therefore considered a terrorist by the authorities. After being exiled to the country where her mother worked, she struggled to find her mother's traces, but instead of doing so, she was exiled to a university where she met another young college student. College students are very fond of this political movement. After picking her up, he went back to his own home. There is also an affection between the two people.
Thus, the third story appeared, for various reasons, the college student was forced to break up with her beloved, who was also repatriated to China because of his identity at this time, and then fell into prison. College students went to a foreign country to run for them despite dissuasion, and who expected it to die. The mother of the college student collects the remains of her daughter, but meets the male protagonist in the first story, because the male protagonist provides a place for him to live.
The girl who joined the Resistance was released for confessing behind the scenes, and he followed his girlfriend's mother to his new residence, at which point the man in the first story heard the mother's story and decided to find his father. As a result, the whole story returns to the original point, and the search does not reach the end.
It's a meaningful thing that can easily be seen as meaningless. The reason why it is meaningless is probably because we ourselves have become accustomed to obtaining something we want by seeking, but in fact, searching has not been able to support this acquisition. Therefore, this film will be considered meaningless. But if you think about it, as long as you keep seeking, are you sure to find something? It doesn't seem like that's going to be the case.
No one knows why they are looking, naturally, no one knows how to find it. What was the father in the first story looking for? He felt that he needed to relax completely after retirement and live freely, so he didn't care what others thought of marrying such a woman. He thinks that his life is complete at this time, but after the accident, all this is not as expected. After the original empty life is over, it is still empty, nothing has changed, and those who have broken the tranquility of their lives have calmed down with time.
In the second story, the child searching for his mother may eventually find traces of his mother, but this finding is the end of hope. The end is not what everyone wants to see, and when it is not found, the remaining hope can also be used as a motivation to survive, but when the facts are in front of us, everything is settled, and the life of hope is not what everyone is willing to get.
When the mother is not found, the mother is the driving force for her own survival, but after knowing the facts, what will happen to the child's life, no one knows.
In the third story, the mother, after losing her hopes, turns to other things to continue to worry about herself, and losing her child is a sad thing, but ending her life does not restore the whole thing. The mother ultimately chose reconciliation, choosing to follow her child's wishes, free her best friend, and help her accomplish what she wanted. This kind of transferred affection is a very pleasant thing for both of these people, and when we are in God's perspective, we can see that the meeting of two people may be a relief from the final answer. The male protagonist also let go of his obsession and reached a reconciliation with his father because of the conversation with the mother.
Life is often like this, we ourselves do not know what we want, and we do not know what the results we see mean for life, but we all know that time is forward, and in the time that is moving forward, we always need to get, to keep up. The answer may not stop you, but fortunately life always arrives.
