This is a movie with the theme of adhering to the dream. Vincent's dream is to leave the earth and discover the world beyond the earth. The reason is because in this world where everything is determined by genes, as a person with bad genes, Vincent has no room to live. He has been protected by his mother since he was a child. After his younger brother of excellent blood was born, the attention of his family was given to him by excellent people. The younger brother stole it, the one who has been surpassed in all aspects, and is always the one who loses. He is addicted to the world of the universe and desperately wants to leave. He wanted to compete with his younger brother on the courage to open his fingers with a shell, but his younger brother was timid, but he used his strong body to swim farther and continued to look down on his older brother. So after the only victory over his brother and saving him, Vincent left home alone. A victory gave him the courage to leave and the courage to start anew.

Vincent was genetically discriminated against and could only work as a cleaner. He insisted on exercising, but was rejected because of poor blood. Finally, he found a body sample that Jerome provided and entered the space agency. Every day, they carefully collect blood, urine, wash their dander, etc., just to get a reason to leave the earth. Although it was only one year, he also wanted to live a life without being discriminated against every day, and without having to be wary of others every day. That was his dream.

Rojem is a person with perfect genes, but he has no confidence in himself unexpectedly. He only won a silver medal in the swimming competition, so after getting drunk once, he rushed in front of the car and just wanted to end his life. Alcohol gave him suicide. courage, but a failed suicide made him retreat. He lives in a world that is boring to him. Helping Rogem fly away from Earth is his newfound mission. He succeeded, taking several risks. He saw Vincent's dream, and he once again summoned the courage to end his own life again after leaving a lot of material for Vincent at the end. It is impossible to say whether he is brave or timid. He went from not being able to accept that he was a No. 2, to not being able to accept that he was a man with limited mobility, to plucking up the courage to commit suicide. This is a tragedy, a tragedy for the mentally weak in a society where genetic engineering has been so successful.

#life in the movie

When Vincent didn't have Rogem's identity, he was just a cleaner, but he was a cleaner who had no way out and was not afraid, whether it was a game with his younger brother or rushing across the road with his girlfriend. Are dreams sometimes more important than reality? In the process of escaping the pursuit of the policeman's younger brother again and again, he finally listened to the doctor's words during the final physical examination. In the echoes of losing his girlfriend's hair, and finally his girlfriend lost Vincent's hair, the last ignition was Rogem's life. The end is also the beginning of Vincent's new life.

#feelings

In a series of crises caused by an eyelash after the tense murder, it was more about how to fight wits and courage. In the last week of leaving the earth, I harvested love and family affection, and finally found that leaving the earth is also a little bit uncomfortable. Willing to. In general, the film still tells the story of personal growth, and does not dig so deeply into the conflict between social phenomena and genetic superiority. The filming time was 1997. After 22 years, many crime-solving techniques and technologies have undergone great changes. Therefore, the sense of substitution is not very strong.

    Vincent: [voiceover] For someone who was never meant for this world, I must confess I'm suddenly having a hard time leaving it. Of course, they say every atom in our bodies was once part of a star. Maybe I'm not leaving... maybe I'm going home.

  • Vincent: Is the only way you can succeed is to see me fail?
