      Can you hit 0?

      After all, there is a difference between movies and novels.

      As a novel, it is possible to express a certain thought in 9 fragments.

      As a movie, there are 9 short theaters with no head and no brain, just for the simple and understandable expression of thinking, that is boring.

      ---------

      Not all tear-jerkers are good plots.

      Either a miserable word or a boutique.

      -----------

      This movie is like some show theater.

      We are connected

      It's not the first time to watch this film for more than 100 minutes composed of several seemingly independent clips and several seemingly unrelated characters.
        
        The year before last there was "Ten minutes older" (Ten minutes older), which contained fifteen short stories of ten minutes: Bernardo Bertolucci's "Water Story", Mike Feggis' "About Time" ", Yili Manzuo "A Moment", Estefan Saber "Ten Minutes Later", Claire Dennis "Facing Nancy", Volker Schrondorf "Enlightenment", Michael...

      About the last story

      The last scene is the most intriguing. There are a few details:
            1 When the mother took out the grapes, the daughter said: You have not forgotten
            2 When the mother said about grandpa, she said: Everyone is carrying a burden. The daughter said: I can't remember my grandfather. After saying this, my mother walked away and went down to the tree to pour water. (The tone of this dialogue clearly feels that the one in the tomb is not the grandfather.)
            3 The daughter...

      Simple people, complicated lives, bravely live now

      I still don’t understand and look back at the Nine Lives

      Article 1: The prisoner Sandra took the initiative to clean. The Officer told her the routine here. Don’t let everyone here know you. Only 5 minutes of jail visit, the phone is really broken, the kind of despair and failure in front of her daughter don’t want to grow old. Staying in this prison after that, just like that old woman;A woman will make mistakes and enter prison. If you want to behave well, the unspoken rule...

      Life is burdened to move forward

      Many people are feeling'this is life'. I admit that I don't know what they want to express. Let me talk about my feelings after reading it.
      Every story in the movie is more or less connected. The connection is not important. The world can be very big or small, depending on how you grasp it. Everyone has their own past or future. We all carry our own baggage and baggage. Those who make us feel tired and think we cannot bear the weight of life, in fact, we are all silently taking it, and...

    Movie plot

    The film consists of 9 female stories: the prisoner Sandra takes the initiative to clean up, hoping to perform well, but the jailer is indifferent to this.
