Experience it, the feeling will change irreversibly

A sociocultural or value entry into the diagram can make a huge difference in how feelings or decisions are made.
The fear of SOS in EQUALS is actually a fear of the power of emotions. Natural emotions will not grow infinitely, but will slowly calm down like a parabola, like a ping pong ball.
But when the repression cannot be released and cannot be directed towards the positive, it will become destructive, and the superego can kill.
The natural emotional response is like a bouncing ping pong ball


Once you experience it, the feeling will change irreversibly, turning decay into magic. Love this film and love the perspective that learning brings to you.
Straight guy, but I still think the male protagonist has good eyes

    Very sincere. I also praise the director's simple, sharp and unified narrative style. The lead actress is amazing.

  • Gilead: I don't believe all the research. Feelings engender feelings. SOS isn't even a disease, that's what they say. Switched off is something they do to us between conception and birth. SOS is who we really are and the inhibitors are just another attempt to squash that.
