Left-behind children in China have always been a hot spot in society, and most people only have stereotypical impressions of left-behind children, poor, inferior, and lack of love, but few people can really get close to their lives. Today we are going to talk about a movie that does not have the blessing of superstars, but still brings people moving and thinking.
This is a minnan public welfare film jointly produced by Zhengzhou Xiaoxingren Culture Media Co., Ltd. and Quanzhou Xinyi Cultural Communication Co., Ltd. that focuses on the growth of left-behind children.
This film tells the growth story of rural left-behind children and urban left-behind children. Chen Xin is a typical "rural left-behind child", who studied hard from an early age and was admitted to university with the financial support of the villagers. The male protagonist, Zhou Yang, is a "left-behind child in the city", although the family is well-off, but his parents have been busy with work and have almost no time to take care of Zhou Yang. Two people who grew up behind met in college and knew each other, but did not love each other.
Because from the day Chen Xin went to college, she decided to return to her hometown to volunteer to teach after graduation. Although Chen Xin's friends and family did not understand her approach, she knew that changing the fate of left-behind children in rural areas required people who were knowledgeable and willing to stay in rural areas to engage in education. Teachers like Chen Xin who are willing to stick to the rural education post are great luck for students, Chen Xin with a grateful heart and full of enthusiasm to strive to rewrite the fate of children, she has a sense of mission, let people be moved.
After graduation, Zhou Yang came to Chunhu Village in order to pursue Chen Xin. Most of the young adults in this village have gone to the city to work, leaving only the elderly and young children. These children have taken on the burden of the family early, and it is painful to understand things, because of the backward conditions in the village, many teachers who support teaching cannot bear hardships and leave without insisting for long, and the mobility of teachers also makes children not develop good learning habits and do not pay attention to learning. The biggest wish of children growing up is to be able to work in the city, so that they can always be with their parents, these children are helpless because they do not have parents who can take them out of the countryside, and lack the most basic family care and basic learning conditions.
Tao Zi often takes his friends to the town to sell agricultural products to make money. One day, Taozi stole the eggs of the stall owner next door and was bumped into by Zhou Yang and chatted, so Taozi took Zhou Yang back to the village. Although Zhou Yang came to the village to pursue Chen Xin, he saw that the children were interested in the guitar and stayed behind to support the teaching. Gradually mingling with the children.
The peaceful volunteer life was broken because of Xiaoya's grandfather's illness, the elderly grandfather was diagnosed with advanced cancer, he was afraid that his time was short, and told Zhou Yang Chen Xin the secret buried in his heart for many years, it turned out that Xiaoya's father fell to his death on the construction site in his early years, and his mother also remarried soon after. Grandpa hoped to entrust Xiao Ya to Chen Xin. In fact, Xiao Ya is a microcosm of the thousands of left-behind children in China, the father who goes out to work needs to face the danger of life, the mother who remarries because he cannot settle for poverty, the grandfather who is old and weak and barely supports the family, but Xiao Ya is more unfortunate than most left-behind children.
Although everyone tries to keep secrets and not let Xiaoya be hurt, but accidentally Xiaoya still knows the truth, and she has longed to be reunited with her parents since she was a child, and suddenly learned that she lost her father, and her mother did not come back, and her grandfather who was dependent on her was also seriously ill, Xiaoya's life seemed to be in a desperate situation, but fortunately, she still had teachers and friends who cared about her.
At this time, Zhou Yang's father was also reported and imprisoned for illegal operation and embezzlement of public funds, Zhou Yang hurried back to find out the truth of the matter, after learning that his father embezzled public funds to fund rural education, the wall that Zhou Yang built in his heart for his father gradually collapsed, and the father and son opened the knots of their hearts for many years in the detention center.
At the end of the film, the children of Chunhu Village have grown up, Zhou's father has been discharged from the hospital, Zhou Yang and Chen Xin are also married, and everyone has a perfect ending.
"Everyone's growth requires countless pains and experiences, so that we can have a responsibility to society and to the family." For urban children and rural children, are we just different in material life? Everyone's life is meant to be alive and well, whether or not they have been really noticed. This is a passage from the end of the movie, and it is also what the film wants to convey to everyone. Many years ago, left-behind children have long grown up and entered the society, most of them are like us, starting a family, and even many people, because they have tasted the hardships of life early, have a better understanding of life, and know more about responsibility and responsibility.
Another special feature of this film is that the problem of left-behind children usually focuses on rural left-behind children, often ignoring urban left-behind children. In fact, left-behind children do not distinguish between rural and urban areas in terms of lack of care, they are all the same, because their parents are busy with their work, and they cannot meet often, and they lack effective care. This lack of childhood may take dozens of times or even a lifetime to make up for it as an adult. As the saying goes, "Lucky people are cured by childhood all their lives, and unfortunate people are curing childhood all their lives".
Finally, I would like to say that the children left behind in the village have no choice but to choose their fate, and we can only try to make ourselves better. Parents, accompany your children, no matter how busy you are, don't leave it behind.
