The film is to bring the background of the eve of World War II to the modern age. Jews and Communists are being purged and persecuted. As long as no country issues visas to them, it is tantamount to the fate of being slaughtered by others. A visa is like a gold medal to avoid death, everyone is trying to get a escape to survive. Here is a real story, the He Fengshan Square in Italy . It is the story of the Chinese consulate actively issuing visas to Jews to help them escape to Shanghai.

Many people in the movie are waiting for visas, the singer, the woman with the dog, georg's friends and himself, and everyone seems to be looking for a company. In the end, everyone's hopes were lost. The singer died, the friends died or were arrested, the woman with the dog lost hope, marie didn't find her husband, the doctor didn't reach the other side to open a clinic, the little boy didn't find a father to rely on, and georg didn't get Visa and love. The movie is about transit, and everyone's story ends in transit. It's like the story of everyone who was persecuted during World War II, read out by a voice like a narrator, lingering in the port of Marseille and all over Europe, with no support. There are many dimensions of spatial overlap in the film, which are worth recalling.
In the end, there is an open ending. One explanation may be that marie didn't find Weidel, and got off the boat and went back to look for it, but the explanation didn't make sense. She saw georg and didn't recognize him. Personally think it is another explanation, that is, the ship sank, marie's obsession came back, with her footsteps, georg's obsession was on her, so I saw that she was still looking for it, but marie couldn't see it to him. Later, when the purge begins, Georg's murder also coincides with a reunion with marie. So the face at that moment was the surprise of seeing marie coming to pick him up.
