Released in Korea. The film tells the story of a strange Japanese who came to a small village and suffered a series of poisoning incidents. After the policeman Zhong Jiu's daughter was implicated, he had no choice but to find the Taoist priest Nikko to find out the truth.
"The Cry" is the most impressive movie I've seen this year. I was lying in bed after taking a shower last night. Once I turned on my iPad, I couldn't stop. I searched for a lot of analysis on the Internet, and wanted to smooth the plot, and it was only after 4 o'clock that I got a general look. Today, I went through all kinds of clues in my mind several times, and found that all the plot analysis on the Internet had more or less flaws, so I went through the movie again after dinner at night, so I had some understanding of myself. I'll give you a string here, please criticize and correct me.
PS I don't understand Christianity, and I also have a limited understanding of Korean and Japanese culture. If there is any inappropriate understanding, please criticize and correct me.
