Why do I give five stars

If I say, a lot of people don't understand this movie. Or not seeing the heart of someone behind the movie, which I guess is writer Harris Goldberg. I don't know anything about this person, and after a simple search, I found that he is not a famous person, and there is no work that makes him stand out. In fact, including this one, it is not a good movie. But why do I have to give five stars?
Because of empathy. I totally understand what this movie is trying to say and what it says.
Not sure how many people have experienced depersonalization, I guess no more than one percent. I've had more than one experience of depersonalization, watching myself move, listening to myself speaking, trying to understand other people's expressions, seeing a table and a chair, and everything around them in their place. It just doesn't feel reality, it's like being stuck between the unreal and the real, neither like watching a movie completely out of the way, nor like a normal person clearly feeling that he is living, like a ghost, existing and not. exist.
So, to make a person live like a ghost, imagine the pain in it.
I guess the screenwriter Harris Goldberg must have had a similar experience. He wanted to show the feeling and life changes brought about by this disease, but because of business needs, he added an element of love. Not clever though, and I guess he doesn't want the love in it to be too clever.
Writers are definitely at high risk of mental illness. This may also be completely reversed, because I read a scientific study that epilepsy can stimulate the desire to write, so it is more correct that mental patients are the gathering area of ​​writers. In any case, I believe that it is almost unrealistic for a person who is not mentally ill to want to write for a long time, at least he has to force himself into a mental state to be able to write effectively.
In short, if you want to understand the world of writers, you can look at this film, it does not force the viewer to understand this disconnection in an extreme expressionist way, but very, very softly narrates such a story, just to make it understandable Those who understand it, those who don't understand it slightly feel it.
