The beginning is absurd and the ending is a tragic story.
Love is a very clear thing, but some people know it earlier and some people know it later. Only when you understand what love is, will you find out that maybe there is only one love in this life.
Enrique is a person who has a clear awareness of love very early, and the love of his life is his classmate - the angelic Ignacio. Due to the godfather's reasons, the two were forced to separate, and they never met again. The love they had in those years was not a deep regret.
As an adult, Ignacio's younger brother Juan came to see Enrique posing as Ignacio. Suddenly seeing her former lover, at that moment, Enrique's heart was full of joy, although the other party had lost the youthful atmosphere of the year.
When Enrique found out that the real Ignacio was dead, and the person in front of him was just Juan pretending to be, what was his heart like? Perhaps two intertwined emotions. One is grief, the love of this life has died, there is no such person in the world, this is unspeakable loneliness. The second is the desire to use Juan's disguised Ignacio to relive the old love, even if the other party is a substitute. It's a thought-provoking move.
When Enrique learned that Ignacio's death was planned by Juan, he did not show full hatred, but a trace of indescribable nostalgia. It is also worth pondering here.
Many people pass by the person they love the most. If we meet someone who is similar to our love, what will we choose? Will you also use this person to fill past regrets?
If you can get along closely with this beloved substitute, even if you don't love each other, you will still feel a little nostalgic. Why? Is it a slight consolation from regret, or a new affection?
The director is indeed too powerful to describe the subtlest and softest side of a person's heart with such a story. There are no answers to these questions, but the story makes people think for a long time and sigh.
