Science fiction is just that. The plot is similar. Points and lines are similar.
But what is this? Science fiction is about the scene. Watching is making.

But the pace of the movie is well controlled.
The surging surging. The slow slow.
Especially at the end, the time of the world stopped.
All human civilization is suspended.
Everyone put their vision out the window to see the most real and original appearance of the world.
Flowers, birds, fish, insects.
Everything seemed so cute and beautiful.
Maybe that's what's so lovely about this movie.
