August 31st, I am in Oslo

There are countless sufferings in the world that will come from all directions, making people exhausted. There is also a kind of sadness in the world that grows from the heart. It will not ask you for a drop of blood or a piece of flesh, but it makes you never remember why people desire to see the sun.

In the film, Honesch visited some old friends. His conversations with them, especially the guy who likes to quote Proust, made every sentence like a needle in my heart. I feel sad for Honesch, and even more sad for his Proust friends.

Recalling the picture of Honesch immersed in the water, I felt his loneliness, confusion, melancholy, and nothingness. I felt that these abstract and inexplicable things were dripping ice cubes touching me most. Sensitive fingertips. I can understand why such a soul chose to sink, but I can't find an excuse to pull him up.

Why do people want to live? I have my answer, but Honesch's answer is a huge problem in my life.

    The subject matter is not new, but it can be watched. In addition to the beautiful photography, the male protagonist's expression is also very interesting. It would be better if time or characters were added a few more lines to advance, three and a half stars.

    I just feel helpless after watching it. Can't death be changed?
