Institutional organization, institutionalization of individuals. Follow the rules, be greedy for life and fear death, only make promises, scribble on the skin, get along, hang around, and perfunctory.
Mummy living puppets. Desires/emotions are suppressed for a long time, desires/emotions die, and they become zombies of life. Although they are alive, they are only walking corpses, and have no interest in life.
raison d'être. It can't come from love, family, friendship. Faced with the truth of life, it is impossible for others to understand, and no one can help. Consciously comprehend life and death education. From just living by, to resisting death and indulging in vocal music, to accepting death and doing things seriously and living a serious life.
The Courage to Exist: Death Education. People can work hard and live humbly for concrete, practical and beneficial things. Do your best, do your best. Live towards death, become calm, work hard, and have no regrets. There is not a day in the world that is not worth doing, and there is no one who cannot forgive.
The film is understated. The narrative structure is inherited from "Rashomon", improving the force. The onion-peeling-style discussion, which progresses layer by layer, is touching and touching.
The handling of female staff in the film is wonderful. The female clerk leaves, making the story real and not cliché, and the funeral at the end of the film is not present, which is only used as a symbol throughout the story. Symbolism, fungibility, an awakening to the love of life. The desire to live is enough to illustrate the fact that there are clocks and toys at the funeral.
Easier said than done. People always have to overcome the inertia of life, and can only rely on self-comprehension to live a new life. Get over it bit by bit with concrete, achievable goals. Accept the way of death and live it hard. Keep the habit of doing things, keep working, keep living.
