Life is a cycle of nothingness and desire

It is so touching to see that the original soundtrack throughout is a splendid pen that lights up the melancholy.
The story shows the confusion that England once had. It tells about the ideological predicament of young people in a gray age. In addition to the superficial consequences of extreme nationalism (populism), it also makes people think: How can "individuals" find themselves in "groups", and how can we avoid the decay that is rooted in front of us and gain self-identity? The more you think about it, the more troubling it is, not just a puzzle England has faced, but everyone.
The handling at the end reminds me of "The Four Hundred Blows". Many of us have lost our youth in our youth due to the temptation of loneliness and personal pain, and finally return to loneliness in the lost puzzle, which seems to be a necessary cycle to escape into nothingness. , life is probably like that. Like the song by the Smith Choir at the end of the credits, if we long for a little light in our cold life, maybe everything will return to peace and loneliness.
