Director Tetsuya Nakajima also seems to have immersed the "image school" in the commercial into the details of the film. The dark clouds in the sky are intertwined and densely woven like fish scales, and a lot of slow motion depicts the sense of alienation between the action and the characters. Use a moment to narrate a certain inner emotional surge. Following "The Life of the Disgusted Matsuko", it is another movie that suffers from the soul. The tangled mind does not return to the ending of the routine on the right way, but is more like pushing a boulder to the top of the mountain, and finally being crushed to death by the heavy boulder, it is a slap in the face of human nature. Chase the silent depression in pain with a solemn lens.
The film lays out the beginning of the story from the confession of Yuko Moriguchi. A group of boys and girls in the restless period of youth disregarded the rules and made noise in the classroom. It was in such a noisy environment that Yuko Moriguchi made her final confession. The world outside the window should be the scene of the revival of all things in spring. However, wherever the camera goes, it is all gloomy and dull, and the beauty of falling cherry blossoms cannot overshadow the filth stained by mischievous muddy water. Spring should be the best time for all things to sprout, like flowers, grass, trees, birds, and humans, as well as revenge in movies. In the next few confessions, each of them is supplementing the accident, and also recalling and thinking about their own life trajectory. Two murderers, A and B, survived and went mad after the truth was revealed and the lie that Yuko Moriguchi injected the HIV virus into milk. A is usually a good student with excellent grades, but the story behind his rise is somewhat sad. His mother is an excellent engineer and is strict with this son who inherits his will. After several disappointments, he chose left this home. A thought that as long as he worked hard enough to make achievements, his mother would look back at him who needed maternal love, and even come back to him to watch him grow and make up for all the love he had lost. He wants to stand on a high place, a high place a mother can recognize at a glance. But the halo of his invention was covered up by a 13-year-old murderer in the newspaper, which also gave him the urge to kill. B is a weak person, and A finds him because of this. They are also weak people. They have chosen a common goal, that is, Yuko Moriguchi's daughter, Aimi, who is even weaker.
The storyline is staggered and extended in each character's confession. Immovable, inelegant, just lonely and unable to let go. In Moriguchi Yuko's step-by-step strategy, the plot also reached a climax. The originally calm faces suddenly became alienated and ferocious. The climax formed one after another is not just created by blood. Under the splendid bloodstain like cherry blossoms on the wall, B's airy and indifferent expression made another eternal mistake, and this young man will bear the sins of his life. The director finally used the reversal of the clock to repair a complete loss. The close-up shot of rewinding second by second relieves the hatred in tears, and the frozen picture is a heart-piercing and confused blank. "Bang..." The most important thing disappeared, which was more unbearable than death, and it was also the ultimate goal of Moriguchi's revenge.
"Crack", the most important thing is gone. The loss, compared to sound, is vivid and heart-wrenching. Loss is in an instant, and it can be regarded as existing in the invisible, not because it cannot be seen. When drowning, the most important things are lost in the throbbing of the water. When AIDS kills, the most important things drift away in the trachea. The people who depended on each other fell to the ground with the sharp sound of the blade rubbing against the neck. The person who knows himself best, the jade body is cold in the sound of dismemberment of the sharp axe after the blunt weapon hits the head, and the person who guides him forward is vanished in the sound of the explosion. Suddenly, I heard the sound of a broken heart, a crisp, glass-like sound.
