The dreams at the beginning and the end are wonderful, compared to the two dreams of climbing and war, which are not very good. The first dream is quite similar to everyone's childhood, because they can't restrain their curiosity and go against the "ban" of adults. I also tend to think that this is just a reflection of childhood. But in order to connect with several other dreams, bold interpretation. We can understand childhood (that is, human childhood) as the "Garden of Eden". Humans grow up in violation of the prohibition, gain freedom, become more independent, and acquire the ability to surpass nature, and strange forces and gods gradually disappear from human life. Then came wars, atomic bombs, nuclear power plant explosions... The "madness" of modernity makes people start to reflect, where will the transcendental human destiny lead? So in the end, it ends with the dream of "returning to nature". Man is a part of nature, and nature is not an object of technology. Nature itself provides man with the most beautiful things. People are born in nature and return to nature after death, so the mourners do not see their sad faces, and they sing and dance to bid farewell to their lives.
In Akira Kurosawa's "End of Humanity", a hell-like scene, I saw the stubborn, silent philosopher in a trance. He didn't defend or apologize, what was he worried about...
All in all, this is the aesthetic and philosophical expression that Japan or the East should have. As an imitator and follower of modernity, it is not necessary to judge one's own strength according to the standards of Westerners. This is also where I am dissatisfied with "Clouds on Sakagami".
