Survival is a right, not an obligation.

When Raymond finally took the medicine and closed his eyes, I thought I was going to cry, but I sighed with relief, as if I really understood his relief.
Euthanasia, a topic that has been controversial for a long time, although I knew this movie was about such a subject, I was still not mentally prepared for such a depression.
In the background, there are blue sea, gentle wind, smile, loving kindness... But my heart has always been very sad and heavy.
After all, from beginning to end, it is a life that is struggling to die.
Almost all the people came to tell him: how beautiful life is, living is hope!
However, can they really understand the inner feelings of a high paraplegic, bedridden for 26 years?
Live without dignity. Die proudly.
Rosa tells Raymond that she loves him and wants her love to stay with him.
But he said: The one who loves me is the one who wants to help me die.
It was so cruel that I couldn't remember it.
I just remembered the "Ichiro" that dd once mentioned, that puppy was too sick to be cured, and finally dd cried and strangled the puppy with tears in his eyes.
At the time, it was just a joke, but when I think about it now, I can suddenly understand what DD was doing at that time.
Perhaps, not everyone can have such courage. Perhaps, at that moment, no one would be more reluctant to it than him.
Just like Rosa, she really fell in love with Raymond, so she decided to help him.
However, the pain was really only known to her.
...
"Mar Adentro", a movie worth recommending and collecting.

    The tone of the whole film is very sad, most of the time the mood is very heavy, and of course there are times when people are excited and emotional. In fact, living is a process of fighting for rights and struggles for oneself, but different people have different traces of life. People live for dignity and responsibility. Dignity is one's own, but responsibility is about others. Sometimes protecting your own dignity is also a responsibility to others. People should understand and respect more!

    I almost fell asleep several times, and for a long time I felt sleepy thinking about the long aerial shot.
