Because we don't know when we're going to die, we think about life going on to infinity, but all that happens is just a point in time, a very small number, that's all.

You may only remember four, five, or something else. Maybe you don't know the beauty of the past. How many times have you seen the full moon rise? Maybe twenty times, but these seemingly eternal things are poor.

The movie didn't look for subtitles to watch, and with the spoiler, I didn't know much about it, but the movie itself didn't develop along any tight story line. It's just that on my newly purchased 32-inch 4K display, the lonely desert and sand dunes happen to be the default wallpapers of macOS mojave, and such a wide world attracts me.
