Because the film is full of a lot of explicit passionate actions, it gives the illusion of a high-level pornography. The director deliberately does not present the sex scenes in an aesthetic way according to the usual practice, in order to express that when people's desires far exceed the weight of love, even human beings are just like animals, with only animality remaining.
The protagonist (father) and the heroine of the film rarely have verbal conversations. They only met at the first banquet of the film. They had a deep and eager gaze, as if there was no one else in the world. In addition, they didn't have much spiritual communication. Every time they met, their reason was always overwhelmed by the desire that swept over them, and they fell into the abyss of sin repeatedly.

Once the desire is spurred, the over-sized emptiness will turn into an impending passion, carrying the family and son’s passion.

However, when the story progresses to the time when the heroine is renting a room outside and meeting the hero in the afternoon, instead of the previous passionate and almost crazy plot, the camera deliberately travels slowly through the flowers, curtains and the bed, and the sun shines through the window to fill the room. Trying to construct a bright and hazy tone to create a dreamlike situation, only then can people feel that they are actually "in love". However, the good times in love do not often bring the plot to a climax, that is, the actor’s son witnessed his father’s derailment with his fiancee, and fell to his death after being frightened. At the time of the original culprit, the great grief made him wake up from the nightmare of love and face the serious consequences of his pursuit of stimulation, like a sinner exiled by social values, wandering alone.
At the end of the film, there is a huge photo on the wall of the actor's home. It is a group photo of him, his son and the heroine. The eyes of the three people in the film are talking about their own thoughts. It also metaphors that the three are ambiguous and entangled in this film. Relationship.
