love vampire

Perhaps only in northern Europe can such a story be shot. For the subject of vampires, this film is definitely an anomaly. Almost all the supernatural and terrifying conventional handling methods have been eliminated. A movie connoisseur like me is still confused and drowsy after watching it for half an hour. Still, still, still; cold, cold, cold again, the director used an extraordinary objective documentary technique to show a story that was originally objectively bizarre, making people amazed that the vampire theme can be shot like this, and it can also be filmed. Wipe out the spark of love. In the name of love, all laws and logics are completely dispelled. We agree with love and forget everything. It's unbelievable. This is film, not life.

To go is freedom, to stay is to die.
