The movie tells the story of a pair of sisters with super telepathy, which has profound meaning and ups and downs.

The sister's fault made her life worse than death: her face was destroyed and she was maimed for life; her husband had an affair, killed his mistress, was declared dead, and was hidden for many years. The elder sister's pain and knowledge can be passed on to the younger sister in the form of dreams. The younger sister cannot give up the plot in the dream, so she draws it down and then goes home to seek the truth.

The movie guides the audience step by step in the way of a horror movie. Finally, the sisters meet, and the sister fully understands that everything in the dream is not an illusion, but the suffering of the sister.

In the end, the sister was killed by her daughter as a devil, and the sister winked meaningfully at her before she died. This is a unique way of communication between the two sisters with strong telepathy. The sister is telling her that this may be the best The way to escape, so the sister watched her sister drown with a non-fatal wound. Because, her sister's ghostly face, her identity as sentenced to death, and multiple murders, all make her unable to face anyone anymore. If she continues to live, she will only face greater pain.

The ultimate philosophy of the film is "liberation". After the car, my sister's happy life was completely ruined. She would be better off dead, crying day and night; my sister felt extremely guilty for this, but she couldn't let go of it when she was away from home; her sister's daughter was also scared into a trance by the "devil" in the wall; The brother-in-law and grandma had to take care of the disabled and crazy sister for decades, and tried their best to cover up the murder of her sister. This kind of pain is unimaginable for ordinary people.

In the end, the younger sister did not tell her daughter that the person she killed was her mother, because she knew too well how painful the truth and facts were, and this pain was also worse than death. The elder sister was finally relieved, and not only her elder sister but also all her relatives were relieved.

Many plots in the story are quite touching:
1. The elder sister has actually gone mad for a long time. It was the pain that tortured her into a madman, so the family had to shut her up for a long time. It was her sister who broke her neck to death. This sister's dream can confirm that she even chased and killed her sister. It was not until she saw the necklace on her sister's neck that she regained her short-term rationality.
2. As a "dead person" who was replaced by others, my sister was not allowed to contact anyone, not even her own daughter. Occasionally, she couldn't help but secretly visit her daughter, but she was treated as a devil by her, which was extremely painful for her sister. fact.
3. My brother-in-law's lover, that is, my sister's nurse, was killed by my sister. This can be confirmed from my sister's dreams, because the dreams that my sister conveyed to my sister are all real. After the car accident, the brother-in-law still fell in love with the unfamiliar sister. Before the brother-in-law died, he kept saying "I love your sister, I can do anything for her". From this point of view, my brother-in-law's love for my sister is sincere. Otherwise, my brother-in-law can kill her completely, because in the eyes of outsiders, she is already "dead", but for her, he not only hides the murder for her , and took good care of her for more than ten years.
4. The seemingly mysterious and indifferent brother-in-law and mother-in-law's family are actually good people. When my sister had dinner at her brother-in-law's house for the first time, she saw her grandmother bring the food out. The brother-in-law explained that her mother didn't like to serve meals with strangers. In fact, she went to deliver food to her sister. In order to cover up the secret that the sister killed the nurse, they secretly hid her sister and took care of her secretly for decades. The reason why they fear and alienate their sister is because of the mysterious telepathy of the sisters, and they are afraid that the sister will reveal the truth.
