Laurie, after experiencing the disappearance of the child in her womb, abandoned her family and joined the guilty remnant, trying to put her extreme grief away? despair? , transformed into complete indifference, so that the pain and struggle that should have been dissipated with the extinction of human feelings (however, she did not really do it). They (GR), through ruthlessness, eliminate the pain caused by love, and raise this concept to destiny, and then turn it into a mission (remind the disappearance of the world), as the only meaning of their existence (people give up love and After being loved, how much meaning of life is left). So, at the end of the play, the GMs' crazy act of disregarding their own safety is actually the martyrdom of the people in white.
Nora, a woman who longed to be independent from the constraints of her family, but lost her entire family. Speaking on behalf of victims on Remembrance Day rather than converting to GR shows its strength. As a pension investigator, he read the questionnaire without changing his face, which shows his ruthless ruthlessness after suppressing his emotions and pain in the depths of his heart. In the face of the disappearance of her family, she has deceived herself to cover up, faced it with heart and soul, and even accepted it with an open heart (after meeting the Black Saint), but in the end, she made a last letter in front of her family's puppets and gave up struggling , is about to become a man in white in colorful clothes.
Kevin, a devout believer as well as a pastor, is a true atonement, but his belief is family, and his piety is to try his best to atone for the sin of abandoning his family in a world after the disappearance of human indifference. He has the kindness and compassion of Jesus, and the primitive fury like a dog. Conflict drives him crazy, but it also makes him believe that the warmth of human hearts still exists, the family can still be rebuilt, and the joy can be regained, and even when he is afraid and panic, he can still give his life for his faith (tame the evil dog). End scene: In the chaos, Kevin rushes into the fire, picks up Jill, and runs to the ambulance, with Laurie, who slumps on the grass behind him, praying.
In the morning, the sun was shining, and everything seemed to be full of hope again. Kevin held the rare and brisk Jill with his right hand and the finally docile black dog with his left. In front of his house, he met Nora, who exuded a more genial maternal radiance than the sun. The screen turned, and the faces of the three of them couldn't help showing smiles.
(As if somewhere, the black man fulfilled Kevin's wish, and his child, arousing the motherhood in Nora's heart, became the "Holy Baby" who brought hope for the establishment of the family).
After all the loneliness, the faint warmth in the morning light, which shocked me like a sobering volcano erupting in the bottom of my heart, every cell in my body is echoing, the gradually cold emotion in the life of a foreign country in a big city, It was as if it was all poured into the body at that moment.
