At the beginning of the film, a world away from the world has been sketched out with bizarre scene settings and similar "tilt-shift" shots. A couple lives in a large house far away from the crowd, with two children and several ferocious dogs. Their lives seem self-sufficient and leisurely. Living in such a natural environment, with a happy family, and no work pressure, seems to be the dream of many people for an ideal life. However, from the release of the wife's desire, to the tension between the two, and natural and man-made disasters, this place seems to have become the most miserable place. The husband was killed in the end, and the man who killed him did not get anything in the end, but committed self-destruction. This is actually a kind of fateful tragedy that happened in such a beautiful nature. The meaning in the film is that people just feel this cycle from generation to generation. What you lose can be seen in children, but you know, this will eventually become what they lose.
There are two scenes in the film that are the most memorable to me. One is that the husband let his wife play the piano and sing, and suddenly burst into tears, saying that he feels what love is at this moment, that he loves everything in the world. Towards the end, the young man was facing a large tree, one fell down, and he pulled out his head. One shocked me spiritually, and the other shocked me visually. The combination of these two aspects is the characteristic of this film.
A flashing red animated monster came out, like a devil from hell, but there was no real action. But at this point, you don't want to explain anything more.
(Being confused before watching, disgusting after seeing it, please be careful.)
