If one day the ground of the earth is faced with inability to survive, will you be able to endure the bleak life of 200 years underground, and will you be able to accept the life without sunlight? When living is no longer a matter of course, fear and despair envelope people's hearts, and the world is full of empty comforts and hypocritical deceit, will you still have the courage to embark on a youthful adventure for a better life? This film is about the shimmering city that has existed underground for more than 200 years. This city is a shimmering city built by scientists in order to keep human beings alive before the destruction of the earth, relying on a huge generator to provide light. There are no cars, telephones, televisions and household appliances, no modern shops, factories, companies.... But his deadline is only 200 years. When 200 years pass, everything here will degenerate and change. In order to survive, a pair of young people explore the exit of Shimmering City with curiosity.
I think this sci-fi movie is a better starting point! Instead of continuing to tell the story of the aliens, there was human self-reflection. The theme should be similar to "Robot Story"! First of all, let's talk about the current shortage of energy, and let people think about this problem. Secondly, the film also satirizes many ills in today's society. For example, children rely on the mayor's lot to decide their jobs; super animals mutated due to ground nuclear radiation; singing to pray for the immortality of generators; The mayor's greedy face and so on.
If there is such a day, what should we do? The film tells us that only by overcoming our inner fear, greed, and never ending courage and hope, can we "pass through darkness, enjoy fresh air and warm sunshine, and be reborn on earth".
