True and false, false and true

Originally wanted to give three stars to the bland chicken soup theme that I hate at the same time, but I thought about it. . . wait! The idea of ​​this story is wonderful!

Although in the name of helping the protagonist to socialize, the main story line of the protagonist is told, but in fact, the three friends have encountered the real problems of time death and love respectively. The protagonist just threw out these three words, but the female colleague encountered the time problem of needing to donate sperm to give birth to a child at an advanced age, the Indian colleague encountered the problem of facing death, and the scumbag father colleague encountered the problem of loving his daughter but not him. Never see his problems again. And the three of them are the contacts of time death and love.

The contact person seems to divert their attention by acting in front of the protagonist, but what he really does is to enlighten these three colleagues! On the contrary, the protagonist does not need the help of the three actors.

These three people thought they were actors at first, but when they think about it, they are really three gods!

In the film, I thought for a moment whether this was really a question of immortals, but I immediately denied it when I saw it. After I pulled away from the film, I only saw the true meaning in retrospect. So the story is really great, and it's great without the movie as a carrier.

But the movie is really not that good. There is such a good story but it doesn't perform well, and the story loses its luster.
