a controversial film

Darren Alanowski uses a set of bizarre and beautiful shots to let people travel between the extremely profound philosophy of life and death. In fact, the theme is very simple: the extreme of life is death, and death is the road to life.
The three parallel and staggered lines actually tell the same story. finish it, complete the ending of the story immediately, complete the shaping of the fate of the characters, and also find the way to eternal life. Two endings: the bald man transcended life and death and truly gained immortality, while the Spanish warrior found the tree of life, but ultimately ended in death. The film's thoughts and endings are absolutely open, and fans can experience it for themselves.
