When I was a child...


The film Fireflies in the garden (2007) is about family relationships and the conflict between father and mother and father and son (Michael), who is his father's male counterpart in his mother's favour (Oedipus complex). One of the most beautiful scenes of the film is about Michael's catching firelies in the garden. It reminded my summery childhood when I with other children used to run through the fields to grasp the fireflies.

  1. I have seen this film you/he/she has been very beautiful; this of which he/she speaks is very interesting: relationships and conflicts in family, among his/her parents and parents with his/her/their children, thing that a today's day they also happen, problems are always born in family..! the most beautiful part has certainly been when Michael, the son, catching firelies in the garden. I would like to see him/it again.
