irrelevant video

I thought the film would also have end credits for more than 10 minutes as usual, and at the end of the jungle, I began to worry that this comedy would become a thriller. Unexpectedly, the ending still loops back to the beginning of the film-back to the river, although Kabylia was not pushed into the river again, but the same heartbreak made her feel less desperate than drowning to death.
Kabylia's biggest personality is innocence, so she believes in men again and again, and then gets hurt.
And the woman who is in obvious contrast with her is the "Hong Kong girl" fifty years later. Ye Nianchen's trilogy obviously cannot be compared with Fellini, but they also portray women in reality and in real society.
However, "Hong Kong women" know the reality best, don't believe in men, don't believe in feelings, and finally don't believe in themselves. In fact, the ending is the same as Kabialia.
Reality is the most important thing. And what about trust? There is only one person who believes.
