In the dark, there are certain numbers. As Wu Shihao, a Hong Kong drug lord in "Chasing the Dragon", said, "Life and death are fate, and wealth is in heaven". Perhaps the greatest growth of a person is to learn how to live in harmony with fate. It is difficult for us to master tomorrow, but what we can do is to master the present, cherish the present, experience the existence of life in this moment, and choose our way of life. "I Lost My Body" is an animation directed by French director Jeremy Herappin and adapted from the novel "Happy End" by Guillaume Laurent, the screenwriter of "Amelie" and Oscar winner. Tells a story with a surreal style. The protagonist of the film is a broken right hand. Such a bizarre and curious image creates a very strong visual impact on the audience, which is typically different from similar films. When the broken hand stumbled to stand up from the ground, it was more of a thriller, and the doubts about the reason for the broken hand also led the audience to further uncover the mystery of the broken hand. This severed hand has two very important roles in the film: First, it is a hand with a personality, which has human emotions, emotions and memories. The broken hand's path to find the Lord and the memories of the owner's experience interspersed in it together constitute a thread that runs through the entire film, making the film's narrative look diverse, but it will not confuse the audience, and it still has a complete time String.  Second, the personified severed hand is a clear symbol. After escaping from the freezer, it stumbled and stumbled through the noisy and depraved city, first crashing into the rubbish heap, wrestling with rats, and then being bitten and driven away by dogs. This is like a profile of the life of the owner of the severed hand, Lauufiel. After losing his parents, the young Lao Wufei was forced to rely on others and entered the society early. In other words, this severed hand is the past of Lauufiel. At the same time, the broken hand is also Laowufei himself. Laowufei met Gabriel and experienced the tenderness and care of the world. After breaking the hand, he met the baby who favored it. Both are the warmth and harmony of humanity in the world. The bright part, they evoke the enthusiasm of Louvuffel and the broken hand, Louvuffier, who made the Eskimo "Igloo" for Gabriel's apprenticeship as a carpenter ; Broken Hand plucked up the courage to jump off the tall building and rise down the wind, flying towards the master he was looking for, and both found their way.  The fly that often appears in the film is also an image, which symbolizes the unpredictable fate. At the beginning of the film, the dialogue between the young Lauufiel and his father reveals that in human life, fate often brings us unpredictable results, and we often fail to grasp fate. It is impossible for everything in life to go our way. Every time Lauufiel thought he had his fate, something unexpected happened. Fate played a joke on him. When he was sure of his dream, his parents died; when he thought he had gained Gabriel's heart, Gabriel left; when he thought he had caught a fly, he accidentally lost his right hand . Dirty flies are like those things in life that make us painful but helpless. They can't escape and are difficult to drive away. They always surround us.  The surreal style of the film is based on reality. Lauufiel’s pain seems to jump off the screen and resonate with the audience. The whole film is filled with a lot of gray, creating a depressing atmosphere. Among the few colors are the pink headphones of the heroine Gabriel and the bright red tower crane. The appearance of both symbolizes the turning point in the life of the male protagonist Lauufiel. In this dark world, warmth and unknown are the only colors.  From the loss of his parents, Lauufiel's life went to a low point. However, even in such a bad life, Lawufel encountered the light in his life. It was a casual caring word from Gabriel, a take-out customer, that gave Lauufiel, who has long lived in a grey world full of complaints, blame and indifference, a new look. When Gabriel first appeared, she wore pink headphones on her head, which became an important symbol for Lauufiel to identify Gabriel. In the overall gray-tone world, pink headphones symbolized retention. The last trace of tenderness makes people feel the precious warmth. "pink" The tenderness of Laughufel inspired him to rejuvenate his life, prompting him to start his own life as an apprentice carpenter. Gabriel's pink earphones and the tower crane next to Lauufiel's residence were also painted bright red, which stood out in the dim environment. Red has two different meanings here. Red itself has the connotation of enthusiasm. When Louvuffier jumped on the tower crane, he gave a relaxed cry. The red color just reflected that Laowufeir finally picked up his enthusiasm for life again. He bravely bid farewell to the past and jumped to the new. But on the other hand, red also has unpredictable and evil metaphors in the West, and perhaps the fate of Lauufiel will be more ill-fated in the future, he will experience a heavier blow than the past, and the abrupt end of the film will be more difficult. It is to let the audience "broken their hearts". But this is not important. What is important is that when Lauufel stood on the tower crane, he vented his accumulated emotions for a long time. In the face of the fact that he indirectly killed his parents, he also decided to accept it calmly. Say goodbye and start a new life journey.  In addition to the ulterior motives of the color scheme, the use of sound in the film is also very good. Lou Wufei loves recording, and a series of memory tapes he made are important clues to the whole film, which explains Lou Wufei's life and experience, and The cause of death of his parents, the sound of this tape symbolizes Lowfel's heart knot, a symbol of his unforgettable past. In the end, Lauufiel left it on the rooftop and behind him. The soundtrack of the film, especially the soundtrack created by Levy, seems to be more in line with the plot and meaning of the film. In order to create a depressing atmosphere of being oppressed and tortured by fate, the film began to use a very soothing violin accompaniment, which greatly exaggerated the depression and depression. Even if the music is taken out alone, it has great appeal. And after the severed hand flew to the master, and Lauufel jumped to the rooftop, the music turned to excitement, they all took control of their own lives, and the audience couldn't help cheering for them. Accompanied by the passionate and rhythmic music, he broke his hand through the bustling city and finally came to the master, but he could not be integrated with the master, just like what Lao Wufei once had and could not come back. The wooden Eskimo igloo that was left on the top of the building after Laughufel jumped to the tower crane, and the right hand that was cut off by Laughufel stayed in place, witnessing the departure and new beginning of Laughufel together. At least this time, Lawufel took his own life. . But this is not important. What is important is that when Lauufel stood on the tower crane, he vented his accumulated emotions for a long time.
