Another European movie. It tells about life and philosophy. At first glance, it sounds like a very grand theme.
But under the arrangement of the director, all the stories are sparse and ordinary, like the life that everyone is experiencing, has experienced, or is about to experience: a woman who is a philosophy teacher in high school, has been in business for nearly 40 years and is full of happiness However, under the double accident of her husband's infidelity and the unexpected death of her mother, a new chapter has begun.
She was content with life before everything happened. I am doing a job I like, have a happy and complete family, and have a few students who have taught me well. That is, in such an environment, she should not understand why her mother always called her, nor why she always slept on the bed and did not want to get out of bed, and he might not understand why her mother kept raising that one. Unpleasant black cat. Because she has lived a full life, surrounded by work, family, and discussions full of philosophical theories, she will not encounter loneliness for a moment, and she has no time and space to have a romantic encounter with loneliness.
But when her husband cheats, the two separate, her mother dies, a woman gets married and has a child, and her son leaves home, she passively loses everything that occupied her time, space, body, and mind. She said she was completely free.
But at the same time, complete freedom also brings a strong, quiet, but also incomparably mellow loneliness.
She is lying alone in the vast meadows and mountains reading, she can no longer participate in the hot and indignant discussions of young people, she will also hug the black cat on the bed and cry, and she will wake up suddenly in the middle of the night and go to find the cat The trace of her, she will hide her students' emotions well, but she will inevitably feel lonely and frustrated...
All of these are actually just a transitional stage after a sudden change in life. After she returned to the classroom, she seemed to have regained an ability, an ability to get along with herself again in a new attitude, which made her no longer tethered to her past emotions, and also allowed her to finally enjoy and enrich herself with peace of mind. Outside of life, the loneliness of occasionally visiting.
Full, lonely, interspersed with each other. She handles it well, in her life story.
What about mine? And yours?
How is it?
