    9. #FIFF12# is an observation of modern society. Most of the first half is spent in the pure spiritual discussion between doctors and faceless people, husband and wife, as if to simulate the form of a sociology documentary program. Aurally and visually eerie and captivating, the clinic's grotesque theatrical sets always seem to have objects suspended in mid-air due to the chosen camera positions. Rather than saying that the film is very experimental, it is more like a pseudo-documentary of an...

The tragedy of "killed" was not predicted; the best state was actually "madly" playing the "yo-yo" of life. One can't help but think that if the world didn't have...
