it does sound like ocean waves

Pause here for a second, raise the fork all the way to the top, and now slowly lower it, the sound is like an ocean wave. Now I hear it, why I didn't notice it before, it does sound like ocean waves.

We are like fish to be sold in a cramped water tank, breathing mechanically, frantically eating expired food in the trash can, day after day, unable to distinguish between day and night, can't remember whether it is a day or a week. Once upon a time, we were either in a noisy or empty warehouse, and she just snuggled gently beside me listening to the waves. Why does a lifetime work colleague commit suicide, maybe the one he loves falls in love with him, one by one is overwhelmed by loneliness, one by one is afraid of being hurt by intimacy, repeating work or helplessly looking forward to an indescribably fragmented future.

    It is also a romance in an office setting, which is better than the "spirit and flesh" fussing about. The director depicts the life of the warehouse supermarket employees very realistically, and the love between the hero and heroine is also over. The last chapter carries the nostalgia for East German socialism. Listening to the sound of the sea as the forklift tracks go up and down... (might be better if cut short by 30 minutes)

    2 hours of watching movies in the supermarket life, monotonous but not boring at all, life is like this, everyone is trapped in the siege, the ending is so beautiful, when the elevator slowly descends, listen, this is the sound of the waves
