Apichatpong used mystic and naturalistic frameworks to describe the dying state of a middle-aged man with kidney stones. Conversation with his deceased wife and son who turned into a red-eyed orangutan at the dinner table at home in the rainforest, they ask each other about their recent living conditions and memories of the past. There is no fear or anxiety. The wife changed the man's urine bag on the hospital bed at home, and then the two hugged each other, which was the happiest moment before dying. Middle-aged man hikes through tropical jungle to cave symbolizing womb on last night of his life, dead wife reappears, wife pulls out his catheter, middle-aged man lies in cave snuggling with wife waiting for death, longing for death Reunited with his wife, surrounded by the stares of countless red-eyed orangutans. It seemed that the souls of those who had died were watching. These souls are watching men pass away and into their world. The ugly and inferior princess has sex with a talking chub in the river. This is true magical realism.
