d) OCEAN HEAVEN
- This movie is about youngsters with unique needs. Ocean Heaven is a movie
about a man who has a child with autism (July 2010). This fictionalised account of
a real-life event portrays a father's struggle to teach his kid with autism. The
father, Mr. Wang (Jet Li), is claimed to be in excruciating discomfort, and his age
is only discovered after a little period of time. While his son (Wen Zhang), who is
between the ages of 17 and 19, has an autism specialist, Since his wife passed
away, Mr. Wang has always looked after and provided for his son Dafu. Even
while he was working, he always brought Dafu along.
Although Mr. Wang is ill, he is unable to receive intensive care at the hospital
since he must work and care for his son. So when Mr. Wang considered what
would happen to Dafu after his death, an issue developed. Pak Wang tried to
drown himself in the sea in a desperate attempt to murder both Dafu and himself.
The attempt, however, was unsuccessful because Dafu, despite having weights
on his body, miraculously managed to swim and save his father. In order to take
care of his kid after his death, Mr. Wang requested assistance from social
foundations and agencies ranging from orphanages to mental hospitals.Dafu,
sadly, cannot be accepted by any university because it does not meet their
requirements. Fortunately, Mr. Wang had a chance encounter with the previous
principal at Dafu's old school during that trying period. Mr. Wang believed that
Dafu should remain here after his passing because Liu's mother, the former
kepsek, had just started an autism organisation.
Dafu cannot be made to feel at ease in a new environment by just turning your
hand. Dafu is still accompanied by Pak Wang to the dormitory of the autism
foundation. Dafu is still accustomed to being himself, and Mr. Wang is aware that
he has not yet adapted to being independent. As a result, Mr. Wang started
teaching Dafu how to be independent, starting with doing his own laundry, making
his own breakfast, getting on and off the bus properly, and washing the floor at
Mr. Wang's job. The middle-aged guy had intended Dafu to take over his duties

after he left. Additionally, Mr. Wang offered Dafu's ideas so that he wouldn't be
perplexed at a later time.

7. MORAL VALUES
a) HOMELESS TO HARVARD
- For short story video from “Homeless to Harvard” that we can learn about we
can learn how we should keep trying even if there are obstacles that come
our way. Nevertheless, based on the short story of the video. We should also
continue to strengthen ourselves even without our parents. The lesson I have
learned is to keep doing something until it succeeds. Keep planting in your
heart to be determined to succeed even though at the beginning the life we
have been living is very bad. Not everyone lives the same life as Liz Murray
(reality character) but with the spirit we have in ourselves we can do it if we
really want to achieve good success in ourselves.
- It is a story about a kid’s life and his relationship with his art teacher, by
changing his life through caring and understanding that with caring can
actually do a lot and not judge someone for we do not have the rights to
judge others.
- Never give up in life even if someone degrades you to not move forward.
You should never mind the negatives and mind positives. Never take a
chance of underestimating someone who may not be good at one thing but
will surely be better at something else.
18 | Page
c) HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL
- First of all, the moral value that I got in the movie High School Musical
2 is not to be selfish for self-satisfaction because people who are self-
important will regret their own actions. Next, we should try to solve the
problem without running away from the problem because there will be no
solution if we do not try to fix our own problems. In addition, we must keep
our promises because if we break our promises, someone will feel hurt and
sad because of our actions. Last but not least, we must lower our ego to
begin forgiveness because if we do not act, others will misunderstand and
distance themselves from us.
At the end of the moral value of this entire movie, we should not be so
self-important that we are willing to throw away our own best friends. We
must think before making a decision, even if there is someone who helps us
but we must think of another way without throwing away our good
intentions. Therefore, if we love our friendship, we should take good care of
them and take care of their hearts without breaking their hearts.
d) OCEAN HEAVEN
- Giving trust is important for children who have deficiencies like in the movie
a father who has faith that his son is capable of being independent,
then the father believes that his son can be taught to live a normal
life.
- The next moral values are a human relationship with oneself, namely
sincerity, patience, despair, hard work, responsibility, never giving up, and
independence. This is because his father never gave up on teaching his
special son to lead a normal life despite the fact that his father was suffering
from a serious illness.
19 | Page
- The opposite moral value is humanity, which is politeness, love, discipline,
protectiveness, and loyalty. Through this story we can see those values by
paying attention to every word, situation and actions in the movie from the
beginning to the end of the story.
-
8. CONCLUSION
In conclusion, this task is not only to see the movie in a casual way, but it can
give more or less the same moral values based on each story in the movies, it seems
to teach us not to give up easily in doing something and strive to achieve success.
Besides that, we should not want to belittle or look down on others. At the same time,
this movie teaches us to be confident in doing something so that we can achieve
everything we want. And lastly, we must correct every situation so that no one else
will be hurt by our actions or words.
