Lies are like a meal

A very interesting show, I have a little understanding of psychology, I am convinced by the scientific nature of this show, yes, the polygraph methods in the film are credible and available.

But I would never put its plot to life, in fact I was too lazy to do it. In a sense, human society is propped up by lies. Whether it is benevolent, malicious, intentional, or unintentional. They are like lubricants that keep machinery going, but they are not any part of the actual machinery. So important, yet so vain.

What's the point of people's words, whether they're false or true? In my opinion, most language can be considered a lie, because stupid, blind, misjudged speech goes against the truth of the world as much as lies. And in the next second, we will also betray our own emotions, positions, and minds of the previous second, and the arguments at this moment will instantly wither and make no sense.

As for the future plot, it is about revealing the protagonist's mental journey. The honest boy may have to face the moment when he can't be honest... Some set conflicts will inevitably be resolved. The means are beautiful.

Regarding this film, I have to say that whether it is the facial polygraph it advocates or the standpoint of the show itself, it is objective and calm like a documentary. Lies wet everyone like a rainstorm, but it will not wipe out the truth and goodwill at the foundation. Human beings may be the most contradictory and self-aware of contradictions in the world, absurd, embarrassing, fierce and beautiful at the same time.
