"Everything Is Lost" is another one-person movie. The feature is that this movie only gives the protagonist three opportunities to speak. It is called the new version of "The Old Man and the Sea". The film unfolds in the memories of the old man 8 days after the accident, leaving a suspense about whether he will survive the disaster. The vacation of foreigners is rich and colorful, and there is also a kind of cruise ship. Going abroad, especially to seaport cities, the countless luxury yachts in the port attract countless tourists to stop and watch. We are not only envious of them, but also impressed by their courage and skills. Things, in the vast and changing sea, are quite risky. The film is a fully equipped sailing boat, the driver is an old man of unknown age and rich experience. He woke up in a ship at sea 8 days ago and found water in the bottom compartment. It turned out that a concentrated box dropped from the cargo ship collided with the ship and pierced the old man’s sailboat, causing damage to the navigation and communication equipment in the bottom compartment. His eyes, ears, and mouth are all malfunctioning, and then how the old man saves himself, the film advances one after another, one after another, one after another, he finds hope is disappointed again, in order to survive, he can only abandon the things around him, and some are helpless. Some are necessary, like life. In the movie "127 Hours", the protagonist lost his arm when he was killed while climbing. It all shows that in the face of living, everything can be lost, and it also shows the insignificance and powerlessness of man in front of nature.
