Have you ever thought about it?

In a certain corner of the world, there is a person who is exactly the same as you

. I think this is impossible.

Although many times when I meet new friends, they always say that you are very similar to the people I know...



I have seen the movie "Two Lives Flowers" introduced by Wang Haoyang.

long time ago.

Suddenly, I was suddenly reminded of this movie.

Revisited afterwards.

He was telling a story about another self in this world.

These two people have the same appearance, the same character, the same name, the same hobby and occupation

. Maybe there was an intersection that I didn't know about

one day, or one of them left the world

at the same time and the other was in a different place. Inexplicably felt infinite sadness.

It's a strange feeling she's going to ask her daddy that someone in your world has disappeared.

She agreed with the feeling but still felt inexplicable about the sadness.

Later, she fell in love with a man. She told my dad that I was in love.

Dad asked her if I knew this person. She replied that I didn't know either.

Dad shook his head and said that I don't understand it. She replied that I will tell you when I understand.

This is love. Can't explain.



This man is a puppeteer. Tossing and turning to find him.

He has been waiting for her to

fall in love with him. together.

He made dolls of two girls. Take her name - Veronica.

He taught her how to manipulate the doll.

The doll Veronica became alive in her hands and came to life

And the other lay in the mottled light and shadow, like the other one who left quietly one day, she lay there quietly.



I suddenly began to believe that there was another me in this world.



The puppeteer told her a story

on November 24, 1966, an important day in their lives. The two were born in different cities and on different continents

. Sometimes I walk

one to touch the stove and burn myself a few days later the other touches the stove with my fingers but pulls it out in time

but she has no way of knowing that she might get burned...

He asked if she liked the story and she wiped it Tears she knew that this is not a story



. There is really another self in the world.

She can perceive her happiness and sadness, her sorrow and fantasy. The music played and Veronica knew that someone had really disappeared from her world.

Those griefs were real.



This is a movie for one person to watch.

When you are alone, you get closer to your heart. Take this to another world and you will see another self.

you talk to her. Maybe there is no language but only the heart.

I am starting to believe.
