This movie used all the previous time to set the stage, just for the last line: "To live is to suffer" (you say why the Japanese are so negative)

Many people think, including many philosophers, that the purpose and meaning of life is to live a "well being" (good life). But under this "lie", should we always sacrifice, forbear, and "self-castrate"?

In history, human beings have had a long period of asceticism. In fact, it is for this reason that everyone suppresses themselves for the sake of an illusory good day. Like the protagonist in a movie.
