However, the point of the movie is not whether this kind of disaster is reliable, but to illustrate "what depression is like" through this background. There are many happy people who can't imagine the strange behavior and depressed mood of depression patients. And the movie is trying to describe this situation. At this point, I think the movie is still doing a good job, it fits the positioning of a certain type of melancholic patient.
The heroine No. 1 in the movie is indeed a typical melancholic patient. I agree with it and feel the same. In the face of this beautiful disaster, it is a god-given liberation for us melancholic patients, an embrace of true freedom. This successfully completes the division in the ending compared to other non-depressed patients' reactions to disasters.
4.5 stars for the beautiful planet and this "disaster", 4 stars for the description of depression, 3 stars for the layout and plot of the movie.
