Onof spent three years writing a novel, which he felt very satisfied with, and considered it his pinnacle. But the artist's perfectionist character made him feel like he couldn't write better than this. For the next six years, he lived a reclusive life with his girlfriend, occasionally writing something, but no longer publishing anything, slowly becoming passive and sloppy... Finally, on a rainy night, he made a decision ... He lost his memory, he remembered killing people, but he couldn't remember who he killed. With a sense of guilt and guilt, he ran wild in the rainy night, was found by the police on the road, and took him to the police station for an all-night interrogation, during which the memories of his life gradually evoked...


Homeless Hobin- The self-image produced by the protagonist after he grows up represents wisdom, consciousness, memory, etc... It is also the source of artistic creation.
Child in Clipping - The protagonist himself when he was 5 years old.
Detective - The protagonist finally asks his name and he says it's Leonardo Da Vinci (a genius who is also a pagan).
Ending - The protagonist was put in the car and drove away. There was only him and the driver in the car, no police officers. The surrounding scenery was beautiful, and the protagonist was not wearing a handcuff.



I like this movie because it raises the imagination that the self-sufficient person can also be redeemed after death - a reference to anti-traditional Christianity, which is also the reason why the agent calls himself Leonardo da Vinci; also because the film also made One of the most beautiful police stations - yes, the rain keeps leaking, there's not even a working pen, and the police are terrible when they interrogate suspects, but they are some sincere people who find the dead for redemption life people. Some people are willing to understand themselves and understand themselves after death. This is a beautiful ending.

    Onof, a famous writer who has lived in seclusion for many years, became a suspect because of a murder near his residence. Unexpectedly, the sheriff who questioned him was a loyal reader of Onof, and had a soft spot for his works. Confidant dialogue, some little-known past events are also revealed one by one... Is Onof guilty? Who is the deceased?
