"Perfect Ending", a literary film with incomplete plot

I was a fan of "Crack", which was played by eva green, and I downloaded a lot of her films~ But this film really disappointed me...
The background of the story is the spread of a new epidemic virus, and people gradually lose the sense of facial features . This setting is very unique. If the filming is delicate, it can be made into a literary blockbuster of more than 3 hours. But unfortunately, the main body of this movie is "love", so other irrelevant feelings and the overall situation have been diluted a lot, so that the feeling of this setting is not profound. And some of the details given are quite inexplicable. I feel that the director's idea at the time was "Oh, this plot can't be pushed forward, what should I do? Oh! By the way! Let the heroine think of her dead father!" So...
Moreover, in order to show the realism, the actor gave a close-up when riding a bicycle, and the camera shot kept shaking up and down. But the shaking frequency is too high, dizziness...
The feeling corresponding to the loss of facial features is also incredible: sadness corresponds to smell (because when you are sad, your nose will runny?), gluttony corresponds to taste, and mania corresponds to hearing. Maybe this is something from a religious sense.
And the development of love as the main event is also unclear. In the early days, the heroine was no different to the male lead compared to the women the male lead had had a slutty relationship with before. Except that the two of them contracted the disease together after they were together, perhaps this inspired the revolutionary friendship of the two sides who "shared adversity". And I think the heroine's illness is contagious from the hero (the heroine became ill after eating the fish. And the heroine looked at the hero and remembered her father, and the hero became the source of her sadness and the The root cause of her illness.) Then the heroine infects the hero again, suggesting their tangled love.
After that, the heroine still said in the laboratory that the hero may be an asshole, indicating that the heroine still does not trust the hero. And the male protagonist's statement of "not used to someone sleeping next to him" stings the female protagonist again. This stage should be the break-in stage.
After the game of telling each other's secrets, the male protagonist confessed his past to the female protagonist. And I have always been afraid that the male protagonist is the female protagonist of asshole, but now the reaction turned out to be "then you are Mr. Asshole, I am Mrs. Asshole. You already have me completely." And there is no turning point in the heroine's emotions.
And when she finally lost her hearing, the male protagonist yelled at the female protagonist and hurt her. The heroine runs away, filled with fear of homelessness and the fear of hearing loss. And before the ending, the heroine didn't forgive him either, and said---about Mike, I'm right, he's an asshole. Here I feel that the relationship between the male and female protagonists is too fragile.
By the end of the film, the film hints at the demise of mankind with the fate of the mammoth. And before finally losing sight, people have a strong desire to hug and care. In this context, the male and female protagonists began to frantically search for each other. At the moment they were about to embrace, both of them went blind at the same time.
I think what the director wants to express is that after losing all feelings, human beings return to pureness. Falling in love, hugging, kissing, has become the perfect feeling between couples. But the turning point was too abrupt. In the end, I was actually moved. But it's just a typical "perfect ending" that cannot be savored.
It is said that there is a plot in the film, saying that socialist countries began to take responsibility for capitalist countries to pollute the environment excessively, causing this disease. The North Korean military parade used... I want to say that you have the time, why don't you describe your plot well...
