Relative to the world, each of us is a firefly, some in the short life of the glow of the light to illuminate the night, some before the time to shine goodbye to the world, a light and a dark, like the twinkling stars in the sky.
The fluorescent stars of the sky drift with the wind, may your souls rest in peace in heaven, the small shoulders are too much to bear.
Many people think that "Tomb of the Fireflies" is the work of Hayao Miyazaki, no way, Miyako's fame is too big, in fact, it is not. Grave of the Fireflies is a Japanese animated film directed by Takahata Hoon and starring Tatsumi Nu and Ayano Shiraishi. This is a work with the theme of "death", which does not have political preaching, but carries out a frontal attack on "death" and seriously faces it.
"On the night of September 21, 2020, I died." A ragged teenager, breathlessly lying at a crowded station, is slowly approaching the end of his short life at the age of 14, and no one will care that this is Japan after a few months of defeat.
Time returned, before the defeat, the air raid began, the bombs fell densely, Kiyota carried the knot on his back, hiding in the sea of fire, and the brothers and sisters escaped safely to the air raid shelter. Unfortunately, my mother stayed in the fire.
After the air raid, the corpses on the ground were full of wailing and wailing, and it was unbearable to see. Qingtai carried her sister around looking for her mother, perhaps Qingtai had already guessed that her mother was gone, came to the school of refuge, saw her mother's body, in the face of the sudden blow, how should the little soul bear it, Qingtai did not cry, nor did she make trouble. Because she didn't want to upset her young sister, her mother left only a ring, and Kiyota put the ring in the purse on Setsuko's chest.
Setsuko asks, "Where is Mommy?" Kiyota didn't shed tears or expressions of sorrow in front of Setsuko, as if nothing had happened. Li Jiezi said that her mother was in the hospital of the West Palace and wanted to find her mother together. As everyone knows, the young Jiezi may have already felt that her mother is no longer there!
In the empty square, Qing Taiqiang smiled and worked hard to perform horizontal bars for his sister who was crying to find his mother, and the two thin figures under the sunset looked so thin. Perhaps, at that moment, my brother tried to carry all the sorrows, but how could the paper cover the fire?
Holding hands and small hands, the brothers and sisters could only go to the aunt of the Western Palace, however, the war alienated the family and made people indifferent to each other. More and more white eyes and less and less rice in the bowl hinted that they had to leave. Sending people under the fence, it is this feeling, all kinds of unpopularity, brother I also have a deep understanding, this is human nature. Kiyota finally decided to move away with her sister and build a home of her own. But when he sang and left happily, how could he have expected that the irreversible and tragic fate of the war had just begun. The ideal is beautiful, the reality is cruel.
The brothers and sisters, with pots and pans, moved into the bomb shelter, and finally one belonged to the brothers and sisters' family, although very simple, but very happy, unrestrained, free. Will the brothers and sisters continue to live happily like this? The answer is, NO! This anime is themed around "death"!
The night was dark, and my sister was afraid, so she caught a lot of fireflies and put them in her sister's mosquito net.
In the bomb shelter, the flying fireflies are clearly extinguished in the sweltering summer night. The brother hugged his sleeping sister tightly, afraid that if he let go, he would lose it again.
The next day, the fireflies were all dead, and Jiezi was burying the fireflies.
Kiyota asked, "What are you doing?" ”
Setsuko replied, "Man has a tomb, fireflies have a tomb of fireflies, doesn't Mom sleep in the grave?" The firefly should also sleep in its grave. ”
Then, Qing Tai cried and finally cried out! It's been suppressed for too long and too long, it's so heartbreaking!
Happy times are always short-lived, and good times are not long. Setsuko fell ill, and In order to let her sister drink sugarcane juice, Kiyota ran to the farmland to steal it, only to be caught squarely, beaten half to death, sent to the detention center, came out of the detention center, saw her sister who was looking at her, and Qingta hugged her sister and cried. I cried too, and I didn't know why the tears flowed uncontrollably.
In order to make the younger sister no longer hungry, the brother had to risk his life to steal while the plane was bombing. Hovering again and again on the brink of life and death, I felt a pinch of sweat for Qingtai. Whenever he found some food in an empty house, he would be extremely excited.
However, because of the lack of food and severe malnutrition, the knots are also weakening day by day, and little by little they are approaching death.
"Brother, thank you!" Setsuko's last words before she dies.
Jiezi, holding the watermelon given by her brother, never woke up again!
Qingtai held the body of her sister and did not want to let go for a long time.
Kiyota, ready to cremate your sister's body!
Cover the coffin, and look at your sister for the last time!
Kiyota put her sister's ashes into a fruit candy box and put them on her body. Fireflies flew up in the sky, and the fireflies found their own grave and fell asleep!
"On the night of September 21, 2020, I died." Kiyota's soul is reunited with her sister!
May the brothers and sisters, without war and hunger in heaven, be happy!
Hunger breeds all sorts of love-hate feelings and distrust of people. It recreates the atmosphere of an era that is no longer visible today. Rice, vegetables, watermelons as seen by hungry eyes... It's all sublime.
