Comedy misery. The characters in the film are full of stupidity, and under the shell of comedy, people feel that the world is over. I like the color tone very much, gray tone: minimalist, cold and rigid mechanization, yellow: carnival, corrupt luxury urban beauty. Color shifts lead the film’s mood changes and narrative development; work during the day and play at night comes to dawn, and gray-yellow-gray forms a closed loop of urban rotation.
Falling from the roof of the restaurant and unshackled
The symbol of the broken glass door The symbol of the gears of the city roundabout
The man who used the lamp pole as a handrail on the bus - French humor

[Restaurant part]: The carnival people don't care about the destruction of clothing and body, only with the scars of consumerism can they enter the real dilapidated corner hidden under the luxury. Classes melted in the restaurant, meeting the barren group portraits of Chengdu. The modern glass door reflects the beauty of ancient Paris, and the hustle and bustle shatters the glass. So far, the classic is broken. The glitz of the past is like a flash in the sky, buried under the ruins of the modern city's mechanical smoke and dust, hip-hop dance steps accompanied by cock crowing, replacing the old chanting wind chimes. The crowd is about to join the mice on the street corner, enter the convenience store, stand on the mechanized gears, and start a new day.
There is revelry everywhere, nothingness is everywhere, frivolous emotions are everywhere, rotting in the air. Joy, with the deepest sarcasm, goes round and round, day and night. --City
