It turned out that it was a continuation of the tree of life. It was originally intended to be used as a screen saver. When I watched it, I suddenly discovered that there was a plot, and the narration guided the audience. The scene that looked like a documentary suddenly had a new perspective, from the lonely thinking dinosaur to the primitive man. , to developed cities and then to the future human planet, this is essentially a drama film, and even I understand what the tree of life wants to express. The tree of life is the way the director wants to shoot the family and the world by making a documentary. Relationship and thinking, there is a feeling of holding a dv to shoot home video tapes + documentaries, but there are almost no lines and actors' performances that are not good, it feels like an awkward filming.
At the time of the journey, there are almost no actors, all the pictures and documentary scenes shot by DV, and the "actors" appeared at the end. Some scenes are quite 2001, and the embarrassment of the tree of life is gone. It wasn't until the name of the writer + director appeared at the end that I realized that this was an unethical drama.
What it wants to express is what the narrator said at the beginning, using the camera to "touch" the world, the usual documentary, will explain what is in the picture, time travel only the narration suggests you, like a stranger, observe and think about the world and yourself The relationship, the hand-held DV creates a home-video intimacy, and the narration calls the world a mother, too. I have to say this movie is quite interesting.
