We watched Mermaid and Aquarios when it comes to the Geography.
At first I watched Mermaid.
Firstly I thought it was funny movie, but it was wrong.
When a boy who imaged a mermaid was arrested and tortured I was so surprised and shocked.
In addition, he was tortured too much to image and went to the ocean, so he could come to see the mermaid and went into the ocean with her.
He was forced not to image, so he was very confused.
I think that he escaped into another world which people can image freely, but people in the world which people cannot image anything thought he died.
After watching it, I felt so sad and I think Mr. Tezuka want people to image freely and not to stop imaging freely by adults. For example if children had told something strange which they imaged, adults must have said “Stop talking something strange”.
I think Mr. Tezuka don’t want adults to do that.
Next I watched Aquarios.
I think a woman want to be a dolphin and tried to be it.
When a man (in fact he was a dolphin) and she swam together in her dream, she looked very happy.
Finally she entered into the tank.
By the way, she studied alone. It was very strange for me, because most people who study often have a party, but she was alone.
That is why these stories are similar in these two points; a person who imaged something didn’t have someone who understood his or her thinking, and a person who imaged something went into another ideal world.
These are great movie. However a man like a dolphin was so scared for me><
