about lies

At first, I thought it was absurd. How could we live in a world without lies. I felt that the people in the film were crazy, but only later did I realize that the abnormality was actually our distorted society. We, who should not lie in the first place, believed that the world cannot live without lies. So when I see the world in the film, although it is embarrassing, it is exactly what we really are and what we should be. There is a saying in the West called white lie, a white lie. Unfortunately, this word has been abused by us modern people. We have become accustomed to being full of lies. Sadly, it is us.

Man at the Door: I don't like that idea. Not a fan of that at all.
