My personal impression is that this movie is sooo freaking white, I agree with environmental protection, and everything is animistic and beautiful, but I think it's a little too much. I can't fully understand the director's fascination with the little octopus, attachment and affection, and thus the courage to live on.
You are empty, you are lost, you come to Asia and Africa to do volunteer work, and really promote this society into a better world, why are you obsessed with an octopus's every move, and feel that her experience has enlightened you, this is too sensitive to live Bar? Or is this the artist? (Dog head) Maybe how I see it is that people realize through long-term observation that you are not threatening to live out of the hole and cling to you. What... It's too exaggerated for me, and I'm so obsessed with filial piety. (dog head)
Overall, I still agree more. The clearer and broader your definition of beauty is, the clearer and broader the ugliness will be. I am not willing to label this world "spiritual and beautiful", as if our world is left with "natural" life (of course, this "natural" is also fake, based on many kinds of political hegemony, etc.). This makes us ignore many other realities, such as the wealth gap, Ganga trash, slavery and war, etc.
In addition, although it is not correct in all aspects, I still want to ask if this movie really does not insinuate the fetish of humans and beasts. I have kept pets for more than 10 years, but my emotions and attitudes towards them are as sons or more. Is it a sister (both my parents raised lol), never been a beauty of the opposite sex like a movie director, or, just my own mentality is not enough...I can't imagine I think another species, eg zebra , spiders, snakes, cockroaches, giraffes, hyenas, etc. The males are fascinating to me, a beauty of the opposite sex, empathetic or something...I just think ah? why? Why do you think so?
Finally, let me make another big crooked question. It has nothing to do with the actual content of the movie, but is my own personal brain supplement. I watched on TV and said that syphilis came about because Europeans engaged in sheep... I couldn't understand it before, but now I can get some cross-species "love" dynamics... It can be said to be very wonderful...
In general, the photography skills are very sufficient, and the director's skills can be seen. For a mindset and intention person who is very sensitive and has never seen it before, I always feel that something is wrong, vibe is a bit weird. It makes it hard for me not to write this review, expressing my confusion. Everyone squirt.
