A fictitious place

Three unrelated stories are linked together by Elvis Presley. On the surface, this connection does not seem to be able to tell the three story structures into a film, but as long as we understand the creative characteristics of Jiamuxu, it can be explained. The city of Memphis, from "Elvis Presley" to fame and death, his ghost hovered over the city. This city has lost its main body and has now become the "tombstone" and "coffin mound" of "Elvis Presley". This city is a dead city. The characters in the three stories are all wandering. The city becomes an image, the "Elvis" becomes an image, and the topic of "wandering" is still discussed.

    The state of the first paragraph and the second paragraph is amazing, cute and rigid (to borrow Ada). Later, in order to complete the rhythm of the narrative, the rhythm is chaotic.

    The characters are alienated and go their separate ways, and the focus on Elvis is just an improvement on the characters.
