Movie set to examine key social issues
Narrated with a meticulous and detailed portrayal technique, the film aims to integrate exploration of social issues like left-behind children, campus bullying, and elderly care into a heartfelt tale, added Zhang.
Lu Haibo, a professor of movie and TV studies at the Central Academy of Drama, said that the script is filled with moving details, spanning from the grandmother delicately removing tiny fish bones to feed the girl to tender moments of washing her feet.
Speaking that such details reflect the emotional expressions typical in Chinese families, Zhong Chengxiang, a researcher at the China Central Institute for Culture and History, commented that the movie pays tribute to the traditions of Chinese cinema, highlighting the psychological state of Chinese people in navigating intergenerational relationships.
