Nobody's Boy

“To live is to struggle.”

Vitalis is such a complex father figure. He teaches Remi to read while they starve on the road. It shows how dignity can be more important than a full stomach.

Seeing Capi the dog stay loyal through every tragedy broke my heart. Animals sometimes offer a more steady kind of love than any person can. They just show up.

Remi losing his first home with Mother Barberin felt like a physical wound. It makes you realize how much a child depends on a feeling of belonging. Once that breaks, everything changes.

The scene in the snow with the wolves is terrifying. It reminds me that nature doesn't care about our plans or our kindness. It just exists.
