If you can't describe what you see in words, what do you do?

I saw this movie a long time ago and wrote a short review, but today I will write some of my understanding when I have time. I don’t know if I wrote it right, just take a look.

I don't really understand religion or non-religion. I think the main characters of this movie are the heroine and her friends, and a group of people who want to know the secret, (ps what I understand is that they want to know the secret is 1. When a person dies, What was the feeling at that time, 2. Where did you go after you died, what did you see) The heroine and her friend had feelings. They found one of the perpetrators at the time and killed them, but her friend couldn't get rid of them The previous nightmare ended up committing suicide in hysteria. The plot arrangement, the heroine was also found.

But I think the heroine did not dedicate herself to religion and accepted it automatically, but was forced by those people to do this experiment. The original intention of this experiment was not right. Certainly not a good result!

The heroine was imprisoned and severely abused. The cruelty of the abuse was beyond everyone's imagination. It was to satisfy the secrets that those people knew. In the end, the heroine said a word to the leader, but the leader also died in the end. .


I think there are two possibilities for the heroine's final reply:
1. The heroine saw what the so-called world after death is like, but she can't describe why, because this unknown world is something she has never seen before Yes, there is no way to describe it in words. For example, when we see something that we can't describe, we don't know what words to describe it. We've never seen it before, it's beyond our knowledge and understanding! ! ! If we see a chair, we will say that it is a chair. This word is a word that we are familiar with, a word that has evolved and simplified, but what about the original word, how do we describe it? So the heroine may have seen this unknown world, but after she saw it, she couldn't describe it, so she couldn't describe it to the leader. The leader couldn't get the answer, and felt that everything was in vain and killed so many people. No one has an answer, I feel hopeless, so I commit suicide!

2. The heroine has experienced such abuse and grief, just to satisfy the selfish desires of those people. I think even if the heroine sees what the unknown is like, she can express it in her limited words, but I think she also I won't tell that person the real answer, because you have abused the heroine like that, why should I tell you the answer, so maybe it's "only the martyrs can reach this world", and the martyrs have to go through With so many cruel abuses, it is impossible for the leader to be a so-called martyr, and it is impossible for him to experience such cruel abuse, so the leader will commit suicide so neatly! !


Hey, I don't know this kind of understanding, right? Maybe this movie doesn't have a definite answer. It just leaves everyone with an inaccurate ending, so everyone has a different opinion, and it's not good to say it. . . . Feel sorry
