LOVE IS DISCONNECT

To be precise, I started watching this movie with Sigur Ros.
When the whole society becomes impetuous, it is difficult for slow-paced movies to stand out. Fortunately, in the midsummer of 2015, I was sitting at the dining table without eating my delicious asparagus and daylily, and watched this movie.

Three stories with ordinary narrative techniques: journalists and internet sex workers, lawyer sons and police sons, and increasingly indifferent couples.

At first glance, I thought DISCONNECT was going to tell a story of misunderstanding after disconnection, until Ben committed suicide. The lawyer who was good at sorting out logic and connection with things, the father asked his wife after reading his son’s Facebook: "Did you know that his favorite book was White Noise "?
This sentence makes me sad.
There are billions of parents in this world. They know that their children like spicy or sweet, dress in red or blue, wake up early or sleep late, play games or go shopping, these are the obvious things. It's like raising a dog and a cat knowing what time it likes to pee, what flavors it likes to eat, and whether it likes to sleep on its stomach or on its side.
The books he loves to read, the music he loves to listen to, the movies he loves to watch, his good friends, his dreams... these are the inner things that are different from animals, but no one cares about them.

Chinese media have repeatedly reflected the stories of internet addicted teenagers through movies, TV series and even variety shows, all criticizing the internet and the young people themselves.
Is our society already afraid of blaming the problem on terrible interpersonal relationships?
I have seen countless times that Chinese parents believe that there are many people with multiple chopsticks. Many young men and women get married and have children unpreparedly just to give their parents, relatives and friends an account of their mistakes.
Circulate for thousands of years.
We are not ashamed of our selfish and irresponsible marriage and childbirth. We call this "normal".

The father of the lawyer was fascinated by finding the reason for his son's suicide and finding the fuse.
Until his mother asked him angrily and sadly: "What? So you have someone to blame? And then, is he gonna wake up?"
He sat there quietly, knowing that he couldn't do anything else.
It's too late. It's

discovered that Ben's sister who committed suicide fell into a breakdown when his parents discussed Ben's friends. She realized that she had hurt Ben in the past. The sister in the same school, like everyone else, thought her brother was a monster, alienated him, and even laughed at him. "Who gives a shit about Jessica! All you care about is making yourself feel less guilty! I'm the one who cut him down! And I knew that he didn't have any friends! I didn't do anything! And people made fun of him! "The
taciturn boy, with a guitar on his back and headphones. He couldn't feel love in this indifferent world, or caring at home, he even thought he was adopted.
Until he chose to hang himself in the fierce music to end his young life.
This is the common cause of all the young tragedies we have seen.

The female reporter went through the mental process of approaching-using-understanding-saving Kyle, a young man who missed his feet, until she finally thought that she had given up her job and social status and went to save him. Young and simple Kyle wanted to be with her, and she said you were too young. He asked if I would be different if I was young.
You see, the simplest people are often the easiest to see the essence of things.
We are not from the same world. You always just want to use me. Later, you just sympathize with me, never love.
And what I want is love.
Harvey drove him away, and he sadly said to her: "You're the one who exploits people! You exploited me!"
Isn't this just what the adult world deceives, exploits and hurts every child?
It is too easy for us to find a hypocritical reason to escape our responsibility. Don't we know that we are a powerful helper in this cruel and indifferent world?

Because we want to protect ourselves, because we want the people we love to live well, because we want to be happy, because we want to get more without giving... Can these really be reasons for us to give up our soft heart?

To be precise, DISCONNECT talks about the disconnection of love between people, only with the aid of the network as a medium.

Over the years, I have often thought that it would be great if my life could be transcribed again.
Later, I realized that even if it was transcribed a hundred times, there would be a hundred different regrets.

The soft and kind soul is dead.
