The world is so big, I only glimpse a corner of it, and the vastness of life, I only feel its subtleties.
The film starts in the early hours of the morning, the phone calls in the middle of the night, the homeless on the icy benches on the street, the beautifully colored aurora flows, the breakfasts of various countries in the world, death, new life, journey, wealth, poverty, slaughter, love, carnival, ordinary us. A cyclist from South Korea or North Korea told Kathmandu about the size of flies around the world, a little boy in South America who shined leather shoes took a cheap computer and said that he could get knowledge from it, and a poor old man in a poor and dilapidated house said that at least we Still alive, God will not forget his people. A girl is addicted to speaking of a language she is in love with that has disappeared. Shockingly thin people in remote tropical rainforests. The chanting of Muslims is melodious and distant in the streets of the city. African women sang loudly and neatly, and a cow was shot in the head with a muffled sound. Life is light, life is heavy.
All kinds of things in this world seem to be false, but distant and unfamiliar things are happening every day.
Mr. Mu Xin, the life I've seen is just passing through. In the world of life, suddenly it is like a traveler.
The girl in the car late at night at the end of the film speaks to us ordinary people, July 24th, 2010. It's nearly midnight now, and I'm running out of time to make this. I worked all day long, It's Sat ., yeah, I know. The sad part is I've been working all day long, hoping for something amazing happens, something great, something to appreciate this day and be part of it, and to show the world that there's something great that can happen in your life, in everyone's life. But the truth is it's not always happen. And for me today, all day long, nothing really happened. I want people to know I'm here, I don't wanna this to exist . I'm not gonna sit here and tell you that I'm a great person, because I don't think I am at all, I think I am just a normal girl, normal life, not interesting enough to know anything about, but I want to be. And today,even though nothing great really happened, tonight I feel as something great happened.
