Some questions about the movie and my opinion

The charm of this movie lies in the possibilities in N. However, I think what the director wants to tell us is that we live in an imperfect world, no matter how we improve, it will be imperfect after all, and if we want to escape imperfection, there is only one way. , Is never born, and the right to choose to come into this world is not in us, and the fact of human existence cannot be changed.

On the other hand, the director attempts to use movies to perfectly explain the "butterfly effect" theory, that is, any small link will have a huge impact on the development of things. In fact, this is not just a natural science theory, but can rise to the category of philosophy. People think they can control their destiny. In fact, no matter what efforts they make to make up for it, accidental mistakes will cause the development of the situation to deviate from the expected track. Everything is hidden in infinite possibilities. As far as life is concerned, there is only one possibility, which is sad and challenging at the same time.

Maybe the director wants to convey more. The above is my understanding. What do you think? Maybe there is a better supplement, welcome to discuss.
