Free soul, burning life.

People of different identities gathered in a dilapidated classroom, mistaken for a group of indignant student organizations for a moment. Perhaps it is this anger and struggle that makes it difficult for me to realize that they are AIDS patients who are at risk of dying at any time...

Sean's image is really not what the protagonist should look like in my mind, but watching the process of his gradually losing vitality, I seem to understand that Sean is one of them, he is the infected person, the caller, and the self-helper , is the one who burns life against silence.

I like the editing method very much, from the debate to the dance floor, the transition of the bed scene, the Tyndall optical effect on the dance floor becomes a cell... I saw the life bound by AIDS doing their best to dance, make love, debate...

The red Seine, the wheezing of a respiratory infection, the end of a life, the rhythm gradually slowed down, and when "silence = death" appeared on the screen, there was finally an emotional explosion. Sean's ashes were scattered by the protesters on the indifferent MP, and the music suddenly sounded, like Sean's final closing ceremony.

I'm ashamed to label them "troublemakers" at the beginning of the film and psychologically deny their struggle. I feel sorry for my indifference and ignorance. I think this is the charm of the film work, allowing me to think with empathy (because it is difficult to present the whole picture in front of me with things that are far away from life), and at the same time regret my prejudice against "democratic freedom", " The Great Gatsby Quote, “Whenever you feel like criticizing someone, remember that not everyone in the world has those advantages that you have.”

I think the phrase could also be, whenever you define someone else's life, remember that what you see is never all.
