sea. Dead father and Enzo. Family-like dolphins at the bottom of the sea. Ideal for planting in the sea. - All of this calls Jacques back to the sea. Although at this time there is already a deeply in love with Joanna and the crystallization of their love in Joanna's arms.
Joanna's success stems from her understanding of Jacques. Her exile finally fulfilled his pursuit. They love each other deeply, they are one with each other, but they are separate entities after all. In his spiritual world, she once approached but could not fully enter.
Jacques is lonely. Everyone who staunchly defends his ideals is alone in some way. But loneliness is fascinating, loneliness has power, and such power is very shocking. It will inspire every idealist to break through every layer of ice and every snow-capped mountain, until they reach the blue sea and blue sky in their dreams, and see their own blue lotus blooming freely.
This is a film about ideals, about friendship, and again about love. Pure emotion, charming loneliness, and a touch of sadness always move me like a drum. But in this world, I just want to wish myself that every idealist can achieve something in ideals, friendship and love. They are equally important, they are with the breath.
Sail to our blue sea and blue sky, indulge in intoxicating emotions, and dance with your own sea.
