At odds with the world, and trying to reconcile with the world

Watching this movie was purely accidental. I clicked on the recommendation on the Netflix homepage. After watching it, I felt a little insomnia. This movie has a little stamina. It’s not an exaggeration to say that this is a stream of consciousness movie. People who haven’t gotten it may think it’s a mess. If you get it, you will feel relieved. That kind of fear that can only be understood but cannot be expressed. Some people use a consciousness Streaming movies tell you that you are not alone, at least this movie understands you.

Stream of consciousness movies put it simply, like a long dream of yours, time and space are chaotic, even jumping, all kinds of familiar or unfamiliar characters, all kinds of absurd scene transitions, you are sometimes happy and sometimes sad, all scenes Bounce at will with your consciousness. And this movie is like a dream. The heroine is a person who lives in the world and has a heart outside the world. She has a boyfriend but always wants to end the relationship. She obviously doesn't like it very much, but she will meet and date. Say what a lover should say, and do what a lover should do. Obviously out of tune with this world, but pretending to be very integrated, very happy. Obviously her boyfriend's family is very weird, and the dinner atmosphere is like a horror movie, she still tries hard to tell bad jokes to liven up the atmosphere. Perhaps we have all learned to pretend, overcome our inner fears, and work hard to play the role we need to play in this world in order to reconcile with the world.

Another emotion of the heroine is the passage of time and the fear of death. The film uses a lot of time and space conversion. One second before she was eating with her boyfriend's family, she was the only one left on the table during a glass of wine. Her boyfriend's parents will be young and old for a while, which is the time for a glass of red wine. The Lord seems to be traveling in an infinite flow of space, and the people around him grow old and die in a blink of an eye. Characters from different time and space in the play appear in front of the heroine at the same time, alluding to the encounter between the heroine's past and future.

This movie is not a movie that suits the public taste, it has a messy time, a ridiculous plot, no logic, it is not even a complete story, it is like a symphony that stirs your emotions, with long lines and dialogues, a lot of female characters The inner voice of the Lord highlights the contradiction between her and the world. She lives the life of an ordinary girl, but hides a rebellious and lonely heart. She strives to look like she is enjoying life. In fact, she is lonely and lonely, and she is afraid of aging and death. . Yes, in disguise, this is how we reconcile with the world.

    I survived until I was on the verge of death. My pupils gradually disintegrated into countless pieces of broken glass. Each piece was imprinted with memories of a person. Scattered in this "white and really clean land." , C, D is ABCD, but if you look at it carefully, it comes from countless cells and will decompose into countless dusts. You can't choose to come, but you can choose to give up death, which is the ultimate proposition of philosophy.
