's bride Justin's wedding car broke down on the road, the bride said to the groom, it's not far anyway, we can walk over. In fact, it is far away. The luxurious castle is already full of guests and friends. My brother-in-law spent a lot of money. My sister has carefully planned all the details of the luxurious wedding, including more than 90 steps. While everyone was anxiously waiting, the newcomer arrived, smiling, hugging, blessing, and dancing. . . . .
While everyone was waiting for the newlyweds to cut the cake, the bride disappeared.

She told her sister that she was tired, and said to the groom, please stay with me for a while. . . After a long time, regained her energy, returned to the guests with a smile, and moved on to the next steps of the wedding. Things seem to be normal again. This did not last long, however, and soon the bride was arguing with her boss, arguing with her parents, and making love with strangers in full view of the open lawn.

Clair
's sister Clair takes care of her younger sister Justin, sadness and depression enveloped Justin, she can't take a bath by herself, and she strips naked by the river on an emotional moonlit night. . .
When the blue planet was really close to Earth, Justin was completely back to normal.
When the planet was not as far away from the earth as Clair's husband and many scientists said, the head of the family, Clair's husband, quietly committed suicide in the stable in despair, Clair panicked and wanted to take the child to avoid disaster, but Only to come back.
Justin told the kid that Dad was right, but he forgot one thing, and that was Magic. The trio hides under a raised tree branch, the child waits hopeful for the magic, the sister nearly collapses, Justin calms down, the planet hits the earth, the end of the world comes, and melancholy devours humanity.
Melancholia
By the end of the film, Justin, who is suffering from depression, appears to be a psychologically strong man. On the one hand, the reason is that normal people don’t know how many crises a person with depression encounters in their lives. It is difficult for a person with depression to put on clothes and go out and take a shower. Therefore, when a crisis comes, the person with depression will On the contrary, the most sober, this is the common explanation; on the other hand, the demise of the earth is not necessarily worse than the pain of depression, and annihilation is also a relief.
Depression has its positive side, just like destruction brings pleasure, people with depression are more sensitive, rich, and strong. This may also be the reason why the director uses poetic language to film depression. The castle villa facing the sea, the gorgeous and white wedding dress, the charming and mysterious Justin, the pretty and restrained Clair, the starry sky at sea, the moonlit night, the blue death star. . .
In fact, the 8-minute prologue of the film tells almost all the essence of the film, a series of slow motions under Wagner's music, indifferent and sad eyes, birds falling from the sky, falling snow-like dust, trees and vines. The inescapable bride, the bride drifting away with the river, the recumbent horse, the desperate mother, the static electricity at the fingertips, the message of the universe, the neat and open lawn in front of the castle, the sun, the sister, the moon, the child, the depressing star, Sister, Justin had a hunch about what was about to happen.
The damage of depression is like a planet hitting the earth. Justin, who is extremely depressed, calmly watches the destruction of the world, watching the blue and beautiful planet rolling in and fires on the horizon. Did the asteroid bring Justin's depression and destroy the planet? No, Justin's depression attracts asteroids that destroy her world.
Everyone has a side of depression, and they have experienced depression to varying degrees.
Enjoy it while it last .
This is what Justin's mother said at the wedding. A mom who couldn't give her daughter's best wishes at her wedding may be partly responsible for Justin's depression.
Yet the phrase itself has a lot of meaning. Enjoy it, while it is still there, time is full of uncertainty, no one knows what will happen in the future, gain will be lost, the world will perish; on the positive side, enjoy it while it is, since you don't know what the future will be what happened.
"Lord, for everything has a reason, every ending is a beginning."
