After watching the film, I already felt quite sad for the little girl so I did not expect to get my heart shattered even more when reading further into the story behind it. If you are reading this, I encourage you to read more into those actual stories that inspired this film, which can be found under the description section of whatever media platform that you can watch this film on.
The film uses a creative way to convey the terrible human right abuses in China in a light-hearted manner- the art of oil painting. There are many symbolisms being used- all of which can only be uncovered through learning the actual stories as mentioned above. It is ridiculous that the world has let China committed such atrocity for so long. Even to this day, there are many children that face similar situation to the one being conveyed in this film. I hope that justice will be restored in China soon.
