Everything that I love is in this room

The title is what Rich said when he was crying with his family in the ward at the end, which is also the theme of the whole film.
In fact, the whole film revolves around the theme of "love". Whether it's a couple whose marriage broke down after losing a child, or Ben, a teenager who loves music but is not recognized, or Jason, a child whose father only asks him how his homework is, or KYLE, a stray teenager who is unloved... This world is more and more easy to make people feel lonely. It is not that the world has really changed, but that you feel that when you have the Internet, you really own the whole world, and you feel that it is your world. You can indulge in gambling here, you can find strangers to talk to you, someone will listen to the music you make, and you can play tricks on people to make yourself feel worthwhile.••••••• However, we Still lacking love. What was not fully attainable in it at that time was only a part of our life. It can never be compensated by "making love", which also explains why the prostitution of teenagers on the Internet in the film is so prosperous. We always choose to express or seek approval through the Internet or some other things when we are not going well, but we always ignore the things around us, everything we really have, everything in this room.
We have actually noticed around us, but we don’t know How to speak, it seems that there is a layer of film, and I don't know when the embarrassment started. In fact, the Internet is not the real reason for everything, it is just a catalyst, a channel that can receive and send emotions easily and without hindrance, making us feel that it can replace everything around us and let us go further and further away from us. Unfortunately, this is only our short-term home. Like if the internet is disconnected, we will be completely disconnected from that world; but in reality our hearts are always connected no matter what. Perhaps only when something is touched will we discover his existence and think of his original status.
But do you know why KYLE chose to go back instead of going with her in the end? That's because even though what he's doing there is a crime, his boss really lets him into the room, he can feel love there. Yep, he is really not a bad guy. It's something she can't give Yes, she wouldn't even let him in the room.
