The movie revealed the aftermath of the tsunami which occurred at the coast of Thailand in 2004 especially Khao Lak and Phuket. The young English couple, Ian and Susie were trying hard to find their young daughter, Martha. She was separated from his father by the tsunami. I still remembered the scene that Ian hold Martha’s hand tightly but Martha still swept away by the wave. Ian shouted at his daughter, “ hold on, Martha! Hold the tree on, good job…” The he was hit by a stone which knocked him out of his conscious. On the other hand, Martha still holding the tree. I almost cry! Where is Martha? The little girl who had successfully hold the tree, why the people can’t find her? My lovely Martha><
At the same time, an English woman called Kim Peobody and her son, Adam, both of them were looking for James (the father) and John (the eldest brother). They all were helpless, but they can’t get help from the British official. The ambitious reporter can’t accept the Thai monks who burned the bodies of the victims. We can see the different views between Thai and Western people. Thai people think that body was just the shell of the soul and western people think that it is unacceptable.
Meanwhile, a Thai people was arrested by police because they thought that guy had stolen the tourist’s bracelets which actually from his grandma. This part highlights the unreasonable attitude of the Thai police. I hope the British officer in real life was helpful and kind because when such as this natural disaster happened, they played an important role to help their national.
Lastly, I wish that Martha was found by his parents!
