What happens if different family members have divergent political views? The movie Jojo Rabbit tells a good story about such a situation.
The movie characters advocated for their ideals without conflict. Mom let her son join youth propaganda training, but she supported a propaganda campaign to free Germany. The son discovered his mom’s secret, but didn’t report it to the authorities; instead, he gradually embraced it and even became a Jewish girl’s friend.
In real life, people join a political party and switch to another after a few years. It might reflect how their mindsets have changed or mean that they are seeking another path that fits with their goals and career development.
Is that a harmonious choice? Not necessary. We compromise to make life happier.
Is Jojo Rabbit a war movie? Not exactly, the ending with David Bowie’s music makes it happier and edgier.
Have a good weekend.
