Beasts of the Southern Wild

                     Human is the cleverest species in the Earth. However, there’s a law of survival in the ecosystem. Humans have to watch and ward every time in their lives as they will never know what will happen next and sometimes are unexpected. Natural disaster always happens very suddenly, in that time it is important for human to stay together and believe in each other. There is nothing essential to cooperation between humans when a thing is related to their lives. Also, it is important to learn to survive in the worst conditions. In the “Beasts of the Southern Wild”, the little girl and her dad lived in their poor house that covered with iron sheets. Before the natural disaster came, the little girl’s dad warmed their neighbor. However, they didn’t believe in him and asked him to leave. After the natural disaster came, they felt thankful to them as they saved their lives. Their attitudes toward them have changed a lot and at that moment, they knew the importance of believing each other. After the little girl and her dad left their house, her dad realized the significance of teaching his daughter to learn how to survive in the worst situation just like they are the only humans on the Earth. Then, he taught her how the catch fishes and drank the water from the river. In my opinion, this movie had inspired me a lot as it let me realized how the law of survival is important to us.
