you keep yourself shut away in an alien world

The name of the male protagonist in the movie is Dominic, which means that the lord and owner of the land belongs to God. The ideas of the Dominican sect in the history of theology are very important, and together with the Franciscan sect, they constituted the mainstream of medieval theology. The heroine's name is Veronica, which is also the name of the double body in "Two Flowers", which means the face of Jesus, the fabric with the face of Jesus, which is extended to the real face.
The film is a good reflection of the author's philosophical purpose and taste. There is a plot, when the Nazi doctor confronted Dominic, he thought he represented the music, poetry and classical philosophy in Western civilization. The most important thing is science, science is supreme, and he forced Dominic to obey his own scientific research; and Dominic only said It is said that prehistoric humans were allergic to science, and controlled the Nazi doctor's gun with a mysterious mind force, forcing him to commit suicide.
The author seems to want to show that science is linked with the Nazis = factual dictatorship + political dictatorship, which breeds terrorism. Dominica undoubtedly represents multiculturalism and subculture discourse power that is not accepted by the mainstream. There are also many Chinese characters in the film, including Dan, Zhuangzi, Zhou, and the intention of Zhuang Zhou Mengdie. The whole film has an air of brokenness and melancholy that hangs over it. If you are not a scientist, it is recommended to take a look. But you need to be discriminating when looking at it.

    I can't judge because I really don't seem to understand... It seems a lot of esoteric things I don't understand
