The English name of the film is survival style 5+, which can be understood as five stories of redemption.
Thief, killer, poor employee, husband, advertising planner, different status but have their own troubles. The thief has a crush on his same-sex partner J, but dares not let him know. The killer asks customers "What's your function in your life" every day, but he can't answer it himself. A poor employee trying to earn money to support a wife and two daughters was hypnotized and turned into a pigeon. Every time the husband kills his wife, the wife will return home with a bloody and powerful attitude, and the advertising planner, her plan is full of fun and personality, but she is not recognized by the company. Maybe the word trouble is inaccurate. They were thrown into a world with absurd rules, and they had no time to think and question, and all actions could only passively conform to the trend of events.
But maybe this is what the director wants to express. There are many misfortunes in life, and the only thing we can do is to accept it.
The supporting characters that appear in the film are also very interesting. The president and one member of the thief trio are always on the phone at critical moments, with the latter carrying his phone with him even in the sauna. On the other end of the phone, it was nothing more than trivial matters. Kindergarten teachers are completely talking to themselves in class and constantly denying the children's work. One of the two female students in the coffee shop was constantly injured, while the other kept his head down and played with his mobile phone. This kind of scene is not unfamiliar in daily life. Two friends who look alike and have nothing in common actually form a partner because they are afraid of being alone. As a result, the exchanges between the two sides are mostly perfunctory.
Therefore, the seemingly absurd film is actually not divorced from reality and beyond the common sense, but it only handles the problem to the extreme, which is sobering and interesting.
In the story of killing a wife as the main line, every time a man returns home after killing his wife and burying her body, he will find that his wife is revived with blood on the spot in a gorgeous and powerful posture, and attacks him. Burn her to ashes, she actually learned to breathe fire, cut her into eight pieces, and she can use the invincible flying fist. Facing the fierce attack, all he could do was kill her again, and then see her come back to life in a more powerful form. On Christmas night, when the man buried his wife's body again and returned home, he found that his wife, who was full of blood, had cooked a big meal and wrapped herself into a Christmas gift waiting for the man to come back. Thus, a strange feeling rose in the endless cycle of killing and resurrection. Most of the time, when the wife's back is full of knives and says byebye to her husband, I believe that all viewers know that this time the wife will never come back.
A lot of things are like this. Boys and girls are divided and merged, thinking that this time, like the last time, they will return to the past in a reconciled manner, but finally there is such a time, separation is separation, and even the parties themselves wonder, why? I can't go back this time.
I just can't go back, the tormented self is bruised and exhausted in the past, and the past is gone.
Of course, at the end of the film, like all similar films, things had a seemingly happy ending. Although what was lost was lost and what happened was irreparable, after witnessing the miracle, you can also get back on your feet. "Of course I'm not homo!!!! I'm gay!!!!" The two can be together happily ``
In the face of such a dynamic movie, it is futile to find its meaning, those dizzying Sound, shadow and color are the most important meanings. The director is very addicted to filming, and we watch it high, which is where its function lies.
