Maybe what the film wants to convey is the last side
what would you do, if you knew you only have one day, or one week or one month to live?
what lifeboat would you grab onto?
what secret would you tell?
what band would you see ?
what person would you declare love to?
what wish would you fulfill?

? The loneliness that radiates from the depths of life, the deep loneliness that cannot be avoided when facing death. This loneliness, the remoteness and strangeness that Ben's whole recollection plays when he hears the sentencing, the powerless words Ben pleads with his fiancée, Samansa, to be rejected, the way Samansa asks "do you ever loved me?" This kind of speechless, is riding in the endless wilderness of no one, silent tears...

someone who is always tangled,
someone who is always exhausted, but has to go on.
