We are all people, and we all have to walk in this world. What we want is not just a glance back, nor just a follow-up imitation after hearing a prank, but to associate with people with true temperament, and to look back with those who look back. People make stories.
For me, the still in the title should be translated as "still". Even if you meet different "old people" and hear different stories, in the eyes of others, you are just a person who does the same boring job day after day. The city far from the cemetery has nothing to do with you, and the people reunited at the funeral don't know you are the glue, you are a "still person" who can't keep up with the times, and they even complain about why you haunt me, why If you don't speed up the work progress, why not save some points for the unit?
I don't really like the Christian fantasy at the end. It's a desperate film. When I watch the last person in the team move off the screen to the right, everything will return to its original point. The deceased is like this, and the same is true for people. There is no need to sublimate the emptiness of our hearts with unfalsifiable illusions. Despair in the end can give us hope for reality.
May we cherish everything.
