In this special period when everyone wears masks and going out is a high-risk activity, Stupid Bear will recommend some wonderful works that you can't see in the cinema from time to time.
"Little Client" is a South Korean film based on real events released last year, directed by Jang Kyu Sung, starring Lee Donghui, Cui Mingbin, and Yoo Sun. The film
tells about a single-parent family where brothers and sisters depend on each other on weekdays. Although the father is indifferent to the children, the life is okay, the younger brother is obedient, and the older sister is also very popular in school. Until one day the younger brother died, and the older sister became a murderer...
"Little Client" is about children facing domestic violence. In reality, many children suffer from domestic violence, especially those with psychological problems and conservative parents who feel that their children can hit casually.
In the film, the father was indifferent to the child. later married a stepmother who graduated from law. He didn't want this stepmother to be a feminine woman, and would often beat the child for a little thing. For example, because the 7-year-old brother did not know how to use chopsticks to drop the food on the table, he was punched and kicked by his stepmother, and his sister was also beaten by a perforated eardrum and bleeding.
The stepmother has always been disgusted with the two children, one day saw her brother holding the 50,000 won (almost 300 yuan) that the actor gave him before, and thought it was the child stealing her money and ignored the child’s explanation. Just beaten up.
The furious stepmother not only beat her, but also forced her sister to beat her younger brother as a lesson. Later, the younger brother was interrupted by the stepmother's intestines, internal bleeding caused the stomach to be enlarged and did not send to the hospital, and finally passed away.
and her mother threatened her sister to do perjury in order to escape the sanctions of the law. In the end, the 10-year-old sister became the murderer of the 7-year-old brother...
. In the movie, the sister also sought help from the society, but most people think it is a little Things don't want to waste time to deal with, it's just a cutscene. Even if it is reported to the police, it is difficult to change the status quo. Because the so-called honest officials are difficult to determine the housework, the police usually can only do ideological work or fines the parents, and there will be no substantive operations. Therefore, most domestic violence cases are ignored. , The reality is the same .
The lawyer played by Li Donghui in "Little Client" is the only hope for the brothers and sisters to escape the hardship, , but at first this lawyer was the same as the school teacher, the child’s neighbor, and the visiting police, even though he knew that the child had suffered domestic violence because he didn’t want to give him. Looking for trouble and pretending not to see , I was lucky enough to think that if the tiger poison did not eat the child, the child could get past it.
until his brother was killed and her sister was treated as a minor murderer by the police, the lawyer realized that sometimes the human heart is more cruel than the beast, so she planned to rescue her sister in hell, but my sister was treating all the adults at this time. I lost my confidence and didn't want to trust the lawyer anymore, so I didn't say anything. This made it difficult for the lawyer to provide legal assistance, and the confrontation with the stepmother in the court was at a disadvantage.
"Little Client" is really ordinary from the point of view of film production. If the audience's sentiment is ignored, when the lawyer set out to Seoul, he recalled the agreement with his sister and brother repeatedly, and everyone wept in court later. also has a thin character image. The film does not explain why the indifferent father and the violent stepmother treat their children in this way, making the whole drama seem weak.
Although the film mentions some information about the economic situation of the child’s family and the stepmother who grew up in a single-parent family, the film does not explain further. Even the disappearance of the vital child’s biological mother was not explained. If the child’s biological mother was there, such a tragedy might not have happened.
Of course, the film is not useless except for the subject matter. It is very careful in some details. For example, because the child of the lawyer's sister's family is not good at using chopsticks, his sister exchanges soup spoons for him, which is in stark contrast to the beating of his stepmother in this situation.
and in order to reflect the cruelty of the stepmother, without making the picture too scary, the director also took some careful thought. For , in the previous shot, the stepmother stepped on 10cm stiletto heels and walked towards her daughter. The next shot was the stepmother kicking against the camera several times. Although the child did not appear in the picture, it can be seen that the little girl’s injury is definitely not minor.
played siblings Cui Mingbin and Li Zhouyuan's acting skills are also very good, , especially Cui Mingbin, who played the older sister, looked like a little adult when he was with his younger brother, and faced the disappointed look of the lawyer who abandoned him at the age of 11. Acting can be said to be the Korean version of Zhang Zifeng.
Although "Little Client" has a lot of imperfections compared to social themes such as "The Furnace" and "Suyuan" , this does not prevent the audience from giving praise to the film, because it allows more people to pay attention to children suffering from families. This problem of violence. The movie
made many viewers who had experienced similar situations empathize with . A Korean fan in his 40s said that the film reminded him of his unfortunate childhood. So the Korean film critics gave "Little Client" 5 points, and the audience It gave 9 points.
In China, we can often see news about domestic violence suffered by children. If we urge everyone to pay more attention to these issues, some tragedies could have been avoided... But because of the existence of gods in China, no directors dare to have such subjects. Go shoot.
In fact, this kind of social phenomenon does not mean that you will disappear without discussing it. It is like this yiqing. Even if the local 8 people who first exposed yiqing are locked in a small black room, yiqing will still burst out. "Bad King" is not a traffic star. They will not disappear because no one is paying attention, but they will come more violently.
Because of the special nature of family and child violence, it often makes it difficult for external forces to intervene. Just as the movie says, the case goes around in various departments and eventually ends. But this cannot be an excuse for us to escape the problem, because children are our future. A happy childhood can heal a lifetime, and an unfortunate childhood can take a lifetime to heal.
Finally, the stupid bear asks you a question; what is the happiest memory about childhood? stupid bears are busy with each other in a quiet time when it rains.
