Amazon's road movie! It is relatively calm and simple to tell a story in the form of a record. The director is very clever and almost discarded all external decorative techniques, and only made two interlaced lines in the narrative, but the interlaced transformation and a little deliberate, male. The rotating narrative before and after the main is very...
