After watching the movie "The Antidote for Life"

What is "help"? In the film, the high-class people are far away from the hustle and bustle of the city and come to a peaceful place with the hope of "saving lives", where the "treated" people live an orderly life. They believe that healing can only be achieved by following "medicine" (hydrotherapy through pure things), and the so-called "pure things" are blood-sucking leeches, and leeches grow in the holy pool in their mouths. People think: "The times change, and the pursuit of rights creates a sense of emptiness." But when people experimented with extracting essential oils from human flesh for longevity, they actually pursued a sense of conquest under the guise of "treatment". The so-called "emptiness" was actually Fill at the cost of life. Therefore, I believe that "the survivors need to save themselves, and those who save themselves need self-control". What is an "antidote"? I personally believe that no matter how social technology develops, human nature will always be needed. Unfortunately, the male protagonist was entrusted by others to enter the sanatorium. But "Dream Ballerina" became his antidote, and thankfully, "saved himself and him." Overall, The Antidote is a good movie. Although the plot progresses slowly, the metaphor is more appropriate.
