Very dull movie, all the foreshadowing is only for the last minute. There is actually a dialogue in the end credits. It should be the life of the child and the family at the end. There are dogs barking, machine sounds, and children's playful sounds. .

In reality, there should be no last family members. Their appearance is also a matter of foiling the father's own practices. For the sake of his own flesh and blood, he can survive by any means. Although he still retains the last trace of his bottom line as a human being, keep it. fire in the heart. Because the most important instincts of living things should be reproduction and survival, cannibalizing each other, cannot continue, no hope is no different from the walking dead, survival is the first gist, reproduction is hope. We need hope, and the next generation needs hope too.

But the most important thing the father did not do was to find hope and the meaning of life for his children. He could die for his own children, but what about his children? After the death of the father, in what way should his child live, the answer given by the father is the bullet.

The last family in the film gives another answer, looking for and increasing your hope, increasing those people and things you are willing to die for them, they are your family, there may be risks, but if you want the other party Really can live well, believe in them, believe in the little miracle and hope that will happen to them in the future.

Knowing why you live and knowing why you can die are the same thing, but I sometimes directly think about the latter. The former will sometimes give you a lot of distractions and make you feel that you can't do it without it, but really The ones who can keep you alive are those who know they will die, but insist on doing it. There are not many people and things like this, but the more you have, the more you will not pull the trigger of your pistol. A shot in the head is always the easiest option, isn't it?
