thought provoking work

After watching the French horror film Martyrs, it is also a thought-provoking work. There is a cult in the movie. They want to know what the world will look like after people die. They propose a plan, which is to brutally abuse young girls, restrict freedom, seal the room, beat them, and finally skin them (the director of this last step is still quite rude. Taking care of the audience's feelings, there is no intermediate process), through these extreme pains, the girl's spirit can transcend the body and be fearless, and then she can face death and see the world on the other side. There are three girls mentioned in the film who suffered this kind of abuse, two are the protagonists Anna and Lucy, and the other is the hooded girl that Anna rescued from the prison cell. After being abused, Lucy and the hooded girl suffered from mental breakdown and severe schizophrenia. Lucy always fantasized about a woman chasing her, while the hooded girl felt covered in cockroaches, and then they all committed suicide. die. And after the skinning, Anna still insisted on living for more than 2 hours. Obviously, this was caused by a strong will to survive. Why is she so determined to live? I remember that the camera had a close-up of her eyes, that kind of performance as if they were drilled through the pupils, and in her pupils, there was a bright cloud. Coupled with the performance of her and Lucy's beautiful childhood documentary at the end, I am willing to guess that at that time she was living in a mental state of living in the beautiful memories of the past. The inability to let go of this memory is also the reason for her to live. Before she reached this state, she had a stage of near collapse, at that time, she always put the back of her hand to her face, or held her head. Know that Lucy's hallucinations appear. She asked Lucy how not to be afraid, and Lucy told her to let go. This letting go is the same as the Buddhist concept of "letting go" that we have heard for a long time. Let go of foreign objects and find the truth. The female leader of this organization, who got what she saw from Anna, chose to commit suicide by swallowing a gun, saying that the world after death is endless doubts, why is this? First of all, since it was a doubt, she obviously didn't get a clear answer. From the analysis of Anna's mental state, what she said is that the possibility of a good childhood between her and Lucy is very high. As for the reason why the female leader swallowed the gun, I probably guessed that it was from where Anna learned that what she saw after her death was her childhood. I couldn't take it, and I committed suicide. . .
