Suffocation of salvation

This film is very suffocating from the beginning, but it feels as if there is no reason to suffocate. It probably feels that the protagonist’s memory is confused, but I don’t know the reason, and I don’t know which segment is the disorder. Until the end, I know the reason for the suffocation. It turned out to be a story that was forced by conscience to mess up the memory and even re-typesetting. He was reluctant to admit his past because of the torment of his conscience, until the memory split off Miller, and that event was completely integrated with his past memory and was rearranged into another memory.

The suffocation from the outside is throughout the whole article, until the last moment, I realize that the suffocation turned out to be from the inside out. When the protagonist admits his memory, he can finally fall asleep. The story at this time has all unfolded to the audience.
