You don't have to answer, but you must carry a question

It feels like the movie is playing a big moral game. The most important question in this game is what kind of values ​​we live in in a world. In fact, in my opinion, the whole story uses a lot of bridges to declare what "evil" is or how to define "evil" or that the world is "evil". In fact, there are deeper horror facts in the depths of consciousness than the surface of the story. The questioning takes place in the scene where two illegal deer hunters meet two kidnappers. It happens when the little girl is hostile to all male characters. It happened when the war criminal's colleague was in the car talking to the employee. It happens when the two kidnappers discuss the Japanese girl who was eaten by mice. It happened when the war criminal colleagues bargained with the kidnappers, and happened when the war criminals dealt with the kidnappers. In addition to the "evil" of human nature, is nature also "evil"? So the cliff that killed the high-tech man is called the Devil's Cliff? At the same time, love and compassion play a redemptive role as we face this "evil" world. Although it seems pale and powerless in the face of a large piece of "evil". The passing of life, interests, and emotions all seem to be unimportant. But there is still a little bit of heat in the depths of everyone's heart. So the moment of ALEX's sacrifice will recall his wife's smile. It can be considered consolation. The last little girl said thank you. It can be considered consolation.

The final impression of the whole film is that of a rambling darkness with a little bit of warm light in it. Fragile, but still there.
So it's called Longly Place To Die.
