Facing Depression

The scenes are clean and refreshing, even beautiful, the rhythm of the plot processing is slow and tedious, or even procrastinated, and the picture is swaying and shaking, even dazzling. Normal people will never be able to reach the dark, decadent, broken and repressed hearts of patients with depression. Until the end of the world comes and the comet destroys the earth, they realize that every day is the end of the world. The heroine, Justin, is quite calm and used to it. This should be the world in the eyes of the melancholic as the director who suffers from depression wants to show.

    #SIFF# is most fortunate to see this film for the first time on the big screen, the sacred effect of the cinema magnifies the film's most obvious advantages - soundtrack, camera lens, special effects. Justin is melancholic because he predicts the coming of the Melancholy Star and destroys every relationship with everyone around him, and because of the end of the day, he predicts that there is "nothing but life on earth that is about to disappear". Similarly, thinking about the relationship between the existence of the universe and people, the tree of life is obviously more advanced.

    Lars Von Trier is so cruel.
