Relatives who get along face-to-face every day, but unconsciously become separated because of various trivial matters; online virtual friends who cannot meet face to face are more cordial, because their identities are unknown, so they can speak their hearts out. In reality, the strangeness is eliminated in the virtual world. The mask you wear can be gradually removed when facing the cold machine and the imaginary chat object. Every seemingly indifferent heart hopes to be comforted by warmth. Maybe in reality Due to all kinds of restrictions, he could only seek comfort in the presence of an outsider who seemed to have nothing to do with him.

Busy work, small family accidents, and boring vanity make the closest people in the family unable to find a good way to communicate and gradually become estranged. Modern people rely on the Internet to make up for the emptiness in their hearts and satisfy their desire to be cared for. Distance produces beauty, which makes people inadvertently let down their guard. The Internet shortens the geographical distance between people, but also lengthens the true distance. When unnecessary jokes and deliberate deceptions are mixed in the Internet, people who are good at disguising are easy to be recruited. Because they are too confident and careless, they are instantly confused and can't tell the truth from the fake. When technology is more developed, people's ability to survive is degraded, and they are too lazy to maintain the relationship between family, love, and friends. Everything becomes natural, but everything is dying in the opposite direction. When those seemingly inseparable virtual networks are instantly disconnected, the ones who can support you are the people closest to you. Human affection is the real bond, and the power of unseen love holds everyone's hearts that can be seen.

The film adopts the method of cross narration, and several independent stories are narrated separately due to various interrelatedness, sometimes overlapping, complex but not chaotic. The director has a good grasp of the character characteristics and emotional expression of the main characters, and the faint and faint sadness runs through it, always hitting the hearts of the moviegoers. The soundtrack of the movie is also very good. The main melody is slowly brought out on the violin, and the complicated emotions that are constantly being cut are brought to the extreme in an instant, creating a yin and cool dark scene in the auditory sense.
