Pain persists

This is a movie with a very social theme, I thought it was corrupt, but it was anti-homologous and had a disappointing ending. Regarding the death of the ending pretty boy, I have to put it in the category of "manslaughter". Because he didn't mean to end his life.

Having seen the eight-point movie "All the Time", which is also about depression, I want to try to find out the reason for 6.9 in this film. The rendering and foreshadowing of the first half is very "in place", but it is inevitably a bit verbose. If there is no Kuba's appearance, it may not be possible to avoid the miserable situation of a large part of the audience pulling the progress bar. The second half contrasts with it - the rhythm is quickened, the climax is high, the coherence of the editing is intensified, Kuba's explosive acting, desperate hysteria and flowing tears, changing background music, and so on. I personally feel that the progressive relationship is not done well enough, or that it is both literary and alternative, with the director's temperament and rhythm, the lack of continuous high energy means that there is no profound shock.

When it comes to the subject matter, I still use "the hours" as an example. Although most of the two films are different and incomparable, since both involve depression, it is necessary to talk about my personal feelings. The overall style of the hours is very delicate and unified, it emphasizes women, family and freedom; and I would classify suicide rooms as youth and education, which are not very easy to audience, and some people are children in adolescence , the other part is parents, and the rest are experienced patients who have been labelled "mentally ill" and "insane", indicating a slightly niche audience. And the hours is a female-labeled movie, which means the audience is half the world's population. Of course, this analysis also has a one-sided component. After all, a movie is like a dish or a drink. There are always guests who are inexplicably appetizing, and guests who are disgusted for no reason.

The character Dominik is a sensitive and vulnerable boy. It is extremely difficult for any homosexual or transgender person to survive in an atmosphere of strong anti-sex. The first time he was angry at the comments under the video, and later he smiled bitterly and then burst into tears. At this time, Dominik was already in a very bad state. Sadly, no one but Sylwia noticed it. The boy's melancholy is a fan of lonely wandering in the stars of the universe. He may escape, he may pretend, or he may just need a life-saving straw. Sylwia became Dominik's straw, she taught him to disguise, and she taught him to survive. We can't help but wonder who killed Dominik, a virtual network, a lack of love and care, or the indoctrination of those extreme suicidal concepts? I thought, I'm afraid each factor is particularly important, they are like growing cancer cells, and eventually become a tumor in Dominik's heart.

The pain is always there, no doubt about it. Imagine what life would have been like for a Dominik who survived. I think he might not be happy. Those who needed to redeem him would come, but it was his cancerous heart that was really vulnerable. Loneliness is the norm in life. If it is a soul that is not strong enough, no matter how many times it is redeemed, it will still be destroyed when it is time to disintegrate. Some would say, it becomes stronger. But being strong is too hard. For sensitive people, the pain in survival is tens of thousands of times that of those who are not sensitive. All I see is Dominik looking up with a gun and smoky makeup, and I see eye contact between the scumbag and the party girl. If the sensitive Dominik hadn't gotten the "terrorist" advice from Sylwia, how inferior, crazy and angry he would have been at this time.

Another point I think the director wants to talk about is the duality of the nature of everything. Whether it's the virtual cyberworld, Sylwia, the driver, the psychiatrist, or the parents all redeemed Dominik to a certain extent, and destroyed him to an equal degree. In the end, I don't care about the tragic end of Dominik's death, nor do I care about Sylwia's hysteria, I just hope that somewhere in the world, maybe, there may be someone in a similar situation to Dominik. I just hope that there is a life-saving straw around that person too, or, a straw. Whether it is survival or destruction, at least let him know how many people love him before he chooses?
