The body of "I Lost My Body" not only represents the entity: the hand, but also the incorporeal body: the love of the other half, the destiny of life. Flies are like an unpredictable fate in life. At the beginning of the film, my father told the boy protagonist this truth. The protagonist needs to use his painful experiences to understand him. Because of his own fault, the parents of the male protagonist left him forever, and his childhood dream of becoming an astronaut and a pianist was always just a dream. I was not good at delivering food, and I was laughed at, but when I was the most frustrated, I was comforted by the girl on the 35th floor walkie-talkie; When he finally touched love, the girl left him. He saw wood alone in grief. At this time, he caught a fly for the first time in his life. He never thought that his hand was cut off by a chainsaw, and fate slipped away quietly in his hand again. It turned out that his hand was lost like this. In the process of finding his lost body, Hand also witnessed his journey of rebirth. The hand is enjoying the piano music, but is expelled by the pianist's dog. Slowly descending from the sky with an umbrella in hand, the imaginary astronaut salutes it. When the hand traveled a long distance and finally found himself, when he was getting closer and closer to the male protagonist's wrist on the bed, the male protagonist turned over and fate passed by once again. Maybe just like what the male protagonist said to the female protagonist facing the crane on the roof, sometimes you can only jump recklessly against fate, even if fate cannot guess your intention, in order to obtain instant joy, and then you escape far away Yes, seek more happiness.

Finally, on the roof, in the heavy snow, the female protagonist found the tapes left by the male protagonist, and looked at the male protagonist with a broken hand. In their memories or at the scene, they saw the male protagonist leap forward in the face of fate and arrive at the crane in the distance. The male protagonist let out a long sigh and couldn't help laughing "heartily"...

I suddenly remembered that in the middle of the film, the female protagonist told the male protagonist that her favorite novel is "The World According to Gap", and the novel ends like this: "In the world according to Gap, we are all terminally ill." In the male protagonist's world, in your world, in everyone's world, what is the world like?
