The insight emphasizes the significance of addressing the reality of trauma in human experience, pointing out that traumas in movie characters are frequently discussed, but the reality of trauma in real life is often overlooked. The distinction between 'big tea' traumas, which involve threats to life or limb, and 'small tea' traumas, which are disturbing events without a threat to life or limb, is highlighted. The speaker also mentions that the historical context needs to be considered when evaluating traumas, citing the aftermath of World War I as a relevant factor in the discussion of traumas in the movie.
