This is a movie that explores the redemption of the human spirit. In a sense, it is a road movie, because the protagonist is always on the road, on the way to pursue the self-rescue of the soul and the emotional destination.
In this hustle and bustle society, for the so-called survival, everyone is busy, covering the stars and wearing the moon, running non-stop, so that like the movie "Crossing Darjeeling", the brothers of the compatriots can do it for up to a year. Meet and don't contact. However, there is a fierce and enthusiastic momentum hidden under the quiet water flow, and the full and busy life conceals an indescribable loneliness and pain. The loneliness, they will one day feel a feeling called weightlessness in the chase, and may even gradually lose themselves and become slaves of material things, but if they are lucky, this day will come earlier, otherwise, you will only be like " Like Professor Isaac in Wild Strawberries, he spent his later years in remorse. The three Whitman brothers were relatively lucky. They planned this spiritual journey because their elder brother Forsyth realized the value of life after he narrowly escaped in a car accident.
However, after a so-called spiritual journey, can the long-lost family relationship be really found?
The story of this film is actually very cliché to some extent, especially when compared with the master masterpiece "Wild Strawberry", it is even more naive. There were various unpleasant actions between the three brothers. They were accustomed to selfishness and doubting everything, until they experienced the rescue incident that faced life and death during the journey. The unique ritualistic and religious funeral in India, India In the vast and vast natural scenery in the middle of the world, they were finally moistened, especially after understanding the mother's way of life and attitude towards life, they understood the true meaning of life: life is like traveling, we are a group of Passengers on the road, everyone is in their own carriages, while looking for the meaning of life, they are also sowing love, sowing the seeds of their own souls, and, most importantly, we must go with our nature! No suffering, no form.
The story is extremely cliché. The biggest highlight of the film is the photography style of the film. The bright poetic and exotic scenery is easy to come by, and the khaki color is the main tone. I feel the deep and mellow cultural connotation and distant artistic conception of India. Let busy urbanites experience this calmness and strength in the noisy secular society; the tension-free running account plot mechanism and the contracted long-shot and slow-motion details are intertwined into a set of seemingly charm. Full of scenery dinner.
