a final dream

As a unique form of artistic expression, film can not only predict the future, but also shock a person's heart. And the film "Final Fantasy - In the Soul" undoubtedly did this perfectly.

The background of the film is set in the distant 2065. On the one hand, human beings have almost suffered extinction due to the alien ghost brought by the comet impact, and have to hide in the fortress city protected by energy. On the other hand, due to the horror and ferocity of alien ghosts, human beings have to try their best to eliminate alien ghosts. The military advocates the use of high-energy particle cannons, while the biological research institution where the beautiful heroine Aki is located insists on finding 7 life forms to activate the earth's soul-Gaia and purify the alien ghosts to eliminate threats, and war is imminent. At this time, during a search process, Aki met and rescued the handsome male protagonist Gray. When the seventh life form was about to be found, the military successfully obtained permission to activate the particle cannon through a man-made accident, but the alien ghosts counterattacked and nearly destroyed Gaia. In the end, Gray succeeds in synthesizing alien ghosts at his own expense, Earth is reborn, Aki loses his love, and the film ends in a beautiful scene of snow-capped mountains.

The success of the film lies not only in depicting the future with almost perfect 3D animation, but also in conquering the audience with its profound connotation and touching love.

If Gaia in the film is alluded to, it can be seen as the natural environment we live in, which is almost destroyed in the endless use of human beings. The cruel alien ghosts are nothing but the earth's revenge for humans, and the military's intention to destroy them is nothing but a satire on the greedy humans who disregard the endless development of the environment. The protagonist's side is the portrayal of those who insist on protecting nature. The ending of the film is full of hope. The people of the future finally overcome greed and desire, save the earth, and save our mother. As a 3D animation adapted from a game, it has to be amazed that it can have such a profound connotation. Whether the future of us is really as shown in the film, but it is worth our thought.

Reason and emotion are what differentiates us from other lives. At the end of the film, the seventh soul has long been destroyed by the effect of the ion cannon. In fact, it is the great love and the eternal beauty in the hearts of human beings that are truly redeemed by human beings. The emotion of the film is cruel, life is so short, even the best love will be fleeting, just like Aki and Gray. We must know how to cherish each other so that we will not regret it and create a beautiful life of our own. This is probably another aspect that the director wants to convey to us.

I believe that as long as we cherish each other and care for our nature and life, the future of mankind will not be a final fantasy, but a final dream. A happy and beautiful future. Write this, just to share with you all.
