Too convoluted story

However, the director's ambition can be seen from this debut work, and the fact that three star actors can be found to star in it also proves from another aspect that this script is indeed very magical. In my opinion, this kind of script is more suitable to be displayed in the form of words, such as novels, with voiceover, interweaving of reality and reality, stream of consciousness, and conversion of subjective and objective personalities. Later, I learned that the director himself was a writer, which further proved my above speculation. After all, movies are the art of images, so it's no wonder that such a crepe expression will make most audiences unable to lift their spirits.

Preest: When you're lost, you're willing to believe anything. In this city, every religion promised a future, whether in this world or the next. All you had to pay them with was your faith and trust and, despite the celebration, the reverence and the prayer, everybody ends up in the same human mess. Old. Sick. Unhappy. Dead.
