A story similar to a dream told as Mulholland Drive, the difference is that the mapping is more obvious than Mulholland Drive, and the audience can know the connection between the final dream and reality. A 21-year-old young man who blamed all the faults of the car accident on his head. When he was still conscious at the end, he kept hearing that the doctor wanted to save him, so in the dream, the doctor never gave up on him, but his own subconscious already understood , I will soon, so I keep saying in my dreams that I will commit suicide. In the dream, the male protagonist saw his parents, because in reality he heard someone say that his parents were dead, so subconsciously, he also understood that his parents were dead, so he hoped that his parents were still alive, and he was shocked when he saw his father in the dream , On the other hand, it is joy, because the male protagonist only saw his father through the rearview mirror during the car accident, so he did not meet his mother directly in the dream, nor did he have direct contact with his girlfriend, but just watched from the window. I think the director has expressed the dream well, because in many dreams, we will also dream what we expect, but we can feel that it is not true, but we still choose to believe it
