Watching The Mermaid



Summery

     It's about a boy who finds a fish that turned out to be a mermaid in his mind.
Although, when he took the fish home and showed to his parents telling them that caught a mermaid, they have thought there boy gone crazy. In his society, imagination was against the law. So the authority locked him up and tortured until he stop fantasizing.
In the end he tries to commit suicide, then the mermaid that he forgot came to the boy and took him away from the world where he used to live.


Evaluation

              Watching this animation, broked my heart. The protagonist was tortured and brain washed by just saying there is a mermaid. Nobody believed him. Sadly it’s a common thing that when someone say something out of the ordinary, people will think that you are strange and they will to segregated you.
In the movie the boy turned in to a mermaid to get away from his society.
My theory is that the boy died and his soul turned into a mermaid to be in a better place.
Where he belongs.
Like the boy experienced, even now in this modern society, many people feels the same way as the protagonist did.  They commit suicide to be free from the suffering.

This animation reminded me that, even though he or she is strange and weird, you just can’t shun them. You need to think a way how to cooperate with them.
