If your daughter is sexually assaulted and the perpetrator is a child of a powerful person, what would you do? Killed the beast in anger, or resorted to the law rationally?
But what if the law cannot represent fairness and justice?
If it has long been reduced to a fig leaf manipulated by the powerful and a cash cow from which public power can profit from it, how do you seek justice for your daughter?
At the end of 2019, the highly acclaimed domestic film "Manslaughter" launched a suspenseful and heart-wrenching narrative in this context.
The Chinese orphan Li Weijie (Xiao Yang) who went to a foreign country to make a living in the movie "Manslaughter"
runs an Internet company in a small town and lives in a house next to a cemetery, living a tight and warm life.
He and his wife Ayu (played by Tan Zhuo) have two daughters. Li Weijie, an "out-of-town household," is very popular among the residents of the small town because of his willingness to benevolent and unfair.
However, all this was disrupted by a manslaughter.
Li Weijie’s eldest daughter, Pingping, was sexually assaulted by the police chief (Chen Chong)’s son Sucha when she was attending a summer camp. Sex videos were also recorded in a coma. Z1z
Sucha, who grew up under the protection of his parents' power, bullied the weak and did nothing wrong, but because his father is a member of Congress and his mother is the chief of the police, he has been unscathed and unpunished.
Until Su Cha took the sex video to threaten Ping Ping and continued to play with him. In the fierce conflict, he was killed by accident by Pingping and his mother Ayu.
Li Weijie, who has witnessed the darkness of public power and knows that fairness is difficult to deal with, in order to protect his wife and daughter’s family, based on his anti-reconnaissance ability learned in tens of millions of criminal investigation films, staged a "montage" with public power. Game.
Sexual assault and violence, manslaughter and crime, corruption and oppression, powerful and weak, confession and redemption, make this film, which is still stunning despite the remake, has been given the high hat of "the best domestic suspense film of 2019".
However, in my opinion, this suspense film is more of an educational film. The most touching thing about
is that it uses a core that transcends nationality and race to express the belief:
parents are the shepherds of their children.
Parents’ cultivation and education affect the destiny and future of their children.
The kid who was killed by mistake, on the surface, was killed by others, but in fact it was just a scapegoat for his parents' education.

In the movie, the most classic line is:
"Some children are children, and some children are beasts."
movie "Manslaughter"
But beasts are not born as beasts.
With the fate of manslaughter, he interprets the children who have been retributed for doing evil, but they are just the sacrifice of abnormal family education. The second-generation official who was killed by
was actually a combination of 's father's violence and mother's petting .
He was born in the upper class, but his father who plays power all the year round is a split politician who smiles on outsiders and is extremely harsh on his family.
The father who is busy with official career and promotion has long lived as a man in a condom. He has the biggest face and career. He has no affection for his wife and children. He always beats his son Sucha at every turn. .
and Sucha's mother as the chief of the police station is a woman who kills decisively and abuses lynching. In
's work, she can do whatever it takes to achieve her goal, and she will falsify evidence under the banner of justice, open her eyes and close her eyes to the corruption of the police officers.
She is a witness and participant of a corrupt society and power-money transactions.
She symbolizes the law and despise the law, she embodies justice and tramples justice. She is the chief who kills and kills within the system, and is also a precarious pawn within the system.
's inner tears and panic caused her to go to the other extreme when facing her only son:
used bottomless concessions and exhaustive satisfaction to spoil her son, shelter her son, and protect her son.
split and twistedParents are bound to raise rebellious and indifferent children. The violence of
's father made Sucha become brutal and bloody in the rebellion. Facing the girl Ping Ping, who is weaker than him, he stretched out his claws and raped him. Facing Pingping's mother, Ayu, he was violent and cruel, and made a harsh shot.
And his mother's spoiling made him unscrupulous and fearless. He regarded the poor as ill-fated, rape as the norm, and the law as child's play. In the end, when he insulted, harmed and trampled the poor, he was eventually killed by mistake and died.
But was it the Li Weijie family who killed him by mistake?
no.
is himself.
, to be precise, is the enlightenment of his parents lost in power and corruption, hypocrisy and evil.
are his parents who hold important positions but have ugly souls. They have already stood on the opposite side of the humble and kind-hearted most poor people.
As the incarnation of parental arrogance and prejudice, he is like a lost lamb, and is eventually countered by the darkness and malice of family education.
Therefore, the manslaughter against him was actually a karma killing, a black and white reverse killing, an annoying killing of right and wrong, a mutual killing of good and evil.

Behind every problem child, there is a problem family.
Because children are a barometer of the family's internal environment and climate. His words and deeds and everything he loves show whether a family is already sick or relatively healthy. In the
movie "You are a teenager", Wei Lai, who is sweet-looking, has excellent grades, and has a wealthy family, comes from a middle-class family and his parents are both intellectuals.
Wei Lai (middle)
in "You are a teenager" is just that this seemingly perfect family is also an impersonal hell:
, her seemingly decent gentleman father, has always treated her children as his own face and slave. Just because Wei Lai failed the college entrance examination, he did not want to talk to her for a year.
And her excellent and self-motivated mother is nothing but an exquisite egoist. She believes that the poor are all harms, and money can handle everything, but whenever they encounter problems, others are at fault. Children raised by a family like
, even though they have angelic beauty and genius brains, are still snake-hearted.
Stills of "Young You"
grew up in cold blood and distortion. In order to vent his hatred of his parents, he projected his inner evil on classmates who are weaker than her, violent and cruel, and lied into sex.
She organized groups to bully students like Chen Nian, intercepted them, beat them, set up a set to trap them, slandered them, and used the perverted pleasure of success to resist the family's control and depression.
Then, after committing the crime of bullying, she took advantage of her family's power to despise the pain of the poor and save her future.
is like, she has never made a mistake or hurt anyone.
But when fairness cannot be demonstrated, manslaughter is inevitable.
Wei Lai, who has no repentance at all, stopped Chen Nian to apologize and mentioned Chen Nian’s mother as if mentioning an inferior person. His words were full of disgust and malice, causing Chen Nian to be angry and smash Wei Lai. Pushed down the steps, fell to the ground and died.
was Chen Nian who killed Wei Lai by mistake?
no.
is her home that looks noble and decent, but is indifferent and arrogant in reality, and her parents who seem to be glamorous, but are hypocritical and selfish in reality.
That is the birthplace of a girl, a nursery for criminals, and the first scene of this murder.

Film and television are the artistic projection of life. Reality is the expression of truth in art. When
was our hometown, the child who grew up with his father’s alcoholism and domestic violence learned to use force to solve problems in rebellion. He fought and beaten at a young age and became brutal, eventually being beaten to death by his crowd. The child who grew up in the arrogant parenting of his parents was defiant, bullied his classmates, harmed the weak, and eventually went to jail or was mistakenly killed; in the case of
, those who had a good future in the Internet incident, but because of the doting of powerful parents, Just let go, defy the law, take drugs and gang rape, go to kill or be killed, and eventually becomeThe negative typical Li Mou, Zhang Mou...
Li Mou who had a promising future,
, we have to see, have seen, and heard of how many tragedies to know: The tragedy of
family education lies in qualified parents Take 18 years or even longer to educate their children how to protect themselves.
Unqualified parents, but don’t even want to spend a second to educate their children, how not to hurt others.
However, the right way in the world is that children and parents who wantonly hurt others, even if they can escape the sanctions of the law, will still be killed by their own malicious in the end.
Because the wrong education cannot bear the right fruits.
The lost lamb cannot go to the vast distance.
When fairness and justice cannot be demonstrated, violence and revenge will inevitably flourish. The victim raised the butcher knife, and the first thing he did not let go was the perpetrator.
cares whether he is the child of the powerful, or the offspring of the grandson.

Therefore, at the end of the Chinese version of "Manslaughter", Li Weijie, the father of two children, finally chose to surrender to the police.
This is not only because he was originally a good person, but in his bones is the reflection and goodness of the Chinese returning to the right path.
And because, when he saw the original innocent little daughter, after witnessing the manslaughter, in order to let his parents escape the blame, he unknowingly learned to cover up the truth and quietly changed the score from 70 to 100 with correction fluid. With
conscience uneasy, Li Weijie understood in reflection and repentance:
, the manslaughter disaster that cannot be avoided, is also a family education that must be faced directly.
Lying, avoiding, fluke, falsehood, hiding, dodge, can escape temporary punishment, but not get the peace of eternal life, and will cause irreparable harm to the children throughout their lives.
Faced with darkness and injustice, power and atrocities, the family has resisted, struggled, unyielded, united and cooperated, and worked together through storms, but in the end, the part of the crime and punishment that belongs to them must stand in front of his wife and daughter. bear.
instead, let the children live in fear and distortion for the rest of their lives, until they live as scapegoats for their parents like the children of the enemy.
You must know that a kind and responsible father will not inherit evil in the name of punishing evil.
He will cleanse the evils he has done, and in pious confession and faith in justice, let his offspring be innocent and bear good fruits.
Yes.
Growing up, every child is a lamb that is easy to get lost.
and qualified parents are the eternal watchers in the temple of the soul.
