Preface. 
If you find out that your child has been holding the wrong child for 6 years, will you choose to switch back or keep it as it is?
It's a tough question.
On the one hand, there is blood relationship, and on the other hand, it is really difficult to choose.
For children, this is actually an inner torment, leaving a familiar family and parents to go to another completely unfamiliar family.
So, how exactly does the story unfold?
And so it was.
The protagonist of the story, Liang Duo, is an executive of a real estate company, he has a successful career, a virtuous wife, and a well-behaved son, and he seems to be a complete winner in life.
However, a pass ** broke this harmony.
Many families received bad news - the child may have been held by mistake!
Liangduo and his wife couldn't believe that such a dramatic story would happen to them.
Although the final appraisal results have not yet come out, both of them have a faint premonition in their hearts that this matter is afraid to be true.
After returning home, the two pretended that nothing had happened and continued to celebrate their son's admission to a key primary school.
Before going to bed, their son Qingduo took his parents' hands and made a wish that the family would be together forever.
The ignorant Keeda had a smile on his face, but the parents next to him looked at him with sadness in their eyes that could not be hidden.
Soon, the results came out, and Keeda was indeed not their biological child.
Ryodo and his wife walked out of the hospital, and the two people sitting in the car were silent.
A lot of emotions erupted in silence, and after banging the car window, he said, "That's exactly what happened!".”
The wife who heard this looked at her husband with disappointed eyes, she always knew that her husband was obsessed with things that his son was not as good as him, and now she finally found the reason.
After going home and thinking about it all night, the couple was still ready to find their biological son first.
Under the arrangement of the hospital, Liangduo and his wife met another couple who were holding the wrong child.
Compared with the delicate seriousness of Liangduo, Xiongda and his wife seem much looser.
After coming to the hospital, they did not rush to care about the child's problems, but discussed the issue of compensation with the hospital.
After some coordination, the hospital representative promised to give a specific amount after consulting with the lawyer.
In addition, the hospital's advice is to change the child back as soon as possible while the child is still young, so that it is good for both the child and the adult.
However, it is very difficult for parents to make this choice, after all, one side is affection and the other is blood.
At the end of this meeting, the two families agreed on the time and place of the next meeting, and prepared to meet next time so that the children could get along with each other.
Liang Duo, who returned to the company, was worried because it was difficult for him to let go of his two children.
At this time, his boss gave him a suggestion: "Why don't you get both children back!".”
Two children?Liangduo was a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it, he felt that this was a better way to solve his current dilemma.
At the agreed meeting time, many families had already arrived at the mall, but they couldn't wait for the Xiongda family.
After waiting for a long time, Xiongda and his family arrived late.
During the meal, Liangduo has been paying attention to Ryuqing, his biological child, but he is not as good as he imagined.
Looking at Liuqing, who has been chewing straws, has the same habits as Xiongda, and Liangduo is a little disgusted in his heart.
However, Xiongda is cheerful by nature and mingles with the children, and does not notice a lot of contempt.
After the party, Liangduo chose to find his lawyer classmates and asked how to get custody of their two children.
The lawyer said that in the absence of gross fault on the part of the other parent, this possibility is very small.
However, Liang Duo confidently felt that there was no matter that money could not solve, and as long as he gave enough money, Xiongda would definitely be tempted.
At the next meeting, the hospital offered to let the two children exchange overnight stays on weekends so that the two children could better integrate into the family.
After returning home, many wives were a little devastated, and she cried silently at the thought that her children were going to call other people's parents.
Liangduo was also a little sad, but he took the initiative to tell his son: "As long as you stay at Mr. Xiongda's house for one night, you can complete the task." ”
Coming to an unfamiliar environment, Qingduo looked very cramped, and the way of eating in the Xiong's family was incompatible.
But thinking of the task assigned by his father, Keida decided to continue to persevere!
Unlike Keita's situation, Ryuharu came to the new parents, and she feasted, and Liangduo corrected some of her son's bad habits.
When the two families exchanged children, many wives found that the child had a wound on his hand and immediately became worried.
The majestic wife said lightly that it was a fall in the park, which was not a big deal.
On the way back, his wife hugged Qingduo and even had the idea of the two of them running away secretly, but she was touched by the child's sentence "What about Dad".
At a later party in the mall, Xiongda persuaded Liangduo to play with the children, but was rejected by the other party.
The majestic sentence "Father is also a job that no one can replace" directly left many people speechless.
Xiongda's wife complained casually: "There are too many children at home, and I really can't keep busy." ”
Ryota finally found a chance to say what he thought: "So, give us both children!."”
Xiongda couldn't hear such words, so he grabbed a lot of clothes and quarreled with him: "Do you think you can buy it with money?"There are also things that money can't buy!”
It was a lot of wives who took the initiative to apologize and avoided the ensuing quarrel.
With the passage of time, the truth about the two of them holding the wrong child back then was also found out, and it was actually because the female ** was jealous of their happiness.
Such an absurd reason has led to the 6-year misplaced life of the two children, which is really ridiculous.
Just when Liangduo was still hesitating, the meeting with his father strengthened his thoughts.
Your child will become more and more like you" This sentence became a curse in Liangduo's heart, and he began to unconsciously examine Keita's performance, and it was indeed not good enough, and there would always be mistakes.
After making up her mind, Liangduo shared her thoughts with her wife, but her wife was furious, she couldn't believe that her 6-year relationship was given up like this!
The wife even pointed out Liangduo's heart directly: "You can't accept that Keida is not as good as you from the beginning!."”
Ryota took Keida to the park to play, and gave the camera to Keita as a parting gift, but Keita rarely rejected his father.
At dinner in the evening, Liangduo assigned one last task to Qingduo, "When I go back to my home over there, I have to call my uncle and aunt Mom and Dad, and I can't cry or go home when I'm lonely." ”
Father and Son. The two families exchanged views by the river and took photos together.
Keita returned to the Xiongjia family, and sat alone in front of the door, looking at the dark night sky and the empty door.
At this time, the wife of the majestic came over and hugged her son Keita, and the mother and son embraced each other for 6 years before they became close to each other.
On the other hand, Liangduo has set a lot of rules and tasks for Liuqing, but the rebellious Liuqing does not obey discipline.
A few days later, the school assigned the task of drawing Mom and Dad, and Ruqing still painted the former Xiongda couple.
Liangduo, who sighed silently at the painting, also thought of the well-behaved and obedient Qingduo in the past, and as a result, Liuqing ran back to Xiong's house while his family was not paying attention.
Liangduo came to the door, and Qingduo immediately rushed out when he heard his father's voice, but unfortunately, his father did not come to him.
Keita throws himself into the cupboard and hides in disappointment, while Ryota gets into a heated argument with the Yuda couple.
Xiongda's wife even said, "We adopted Keita and Ryuharu at the same time", which knocked down Liangta's former self-confidence and arrogance.
After taking his son home, he decided to change his former image as a strict father and mingle with his son.
Sure enough, there was a lot of laughter in the family after that, and everyone was happy.
But when the family made a wish to Meteor, Ryuqing said, "I want to go back to my parents." ”
Such an answer was something neither of them expected.
After the child fell asleep, his wife secretly cried to Liangduo: "I like Ryuqing more and more, and I feel like betraying Keita." ”
When Liangduo checked the camera later, he saw a lot of Keita**his**.
He didn't expect that when he was picky about Qingduo's imperfection, Qingduo chose to accept all his looks without reservation.
Impulsive, Liangduo drove directly to the Xiong's house, and he wanted to see Keita.
When Ryota reappeared at the door, Keita just kept his eyes wide open and tried to hold back his tears, and didn't run towards Ryota again.
After Liangduo called out Qingduo's name, Qingduo's emotions couldn't hold back and ran directly into the path next to him.
Liangduo ran up after him, and shouted on another path next to the forest: "Keita, I'm sorry, Dad, I really want to see you, that's why I came here in violation of the agreement." ”
Qingduo just replied: "You are no longer my father." ”
Liangduo was a little frustrated, recalling the bits and pieces of the past 6 years and said: "In the past 6 years, I have been your father." ”
I may not be good enough, but I'm also your dad. ”
One big and one small finally came to the end of the road, and the hug under the shade of the trees represented the reconciliation of this father-son relationship.
You don't need to be like your father" is the final answer.
Epilogue. The choice between blood and family affection, perhaps everyone has their own answers.
Kore-eda's shooting is very warm and delicate, without forced indoctrination or strong expression, but it is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
The main line of the story is not the child who was held wrong, but focuses on a lot of inner changes, and the emotional transformation of his son, which is very charming.
Even if it is a cliché story with the wrong child, the director has still excavated a point that can touch the audience, and there is indeed a kind of warmth.
