The Smiling Man

I was watching an 8-minute foreign film called “The Smiling Man.” Its idea is very simple, but at the same time very profound.
It tells about a man who was involved in a car accident and suffered damage to his facial nerve. This made him smile all the time, and this exposed him to embarrassing situations because people thought he would make fun of them or consider any word he said to be just a joke.
On the day he met the woman who was in his car, she collided with her car and was dealing with him harshly because she considered him the reason for losing her future, because on that day she had a job interview as a newspaper reporter, and because of the incident, they chose to correspond with someone else, and every time she met him, she thought that he was smiling and not affected by her health condition or the loss of her opportunity to... She did not know that his smile was a paralysis that affected his face, and when she found out, she was very affected and tears began to fall from her eyes. He began to notice that everyone who met her saw tears falling from her eyes, and he did not know that the accident had caused a defect in the facial nerve that made her eyes water for no reason.
He became a person who was always smiling and was not fit for his previous job. He used to work in a burying office for the dead, and his job was to console the family of the dead.
She has become a woman whose tears never stop and who is not fit for her job as a newspaper reporter
The movie ended with her wishing that she was the one with the permanent smile on his face
The idea of ​​the film, in short, is that not all the feelings that appear on our faces must be real. They may be hidden behind suffering and tragedy that no one can feel except those who live it.
