Even, she began to observe her quietly (like a hunter observes his prey). When Sheba invited her to the house out of courtesy because Barbara had helped her, Barbara, who had little social life, took it as a grand appearance and even had her hair done. However, when she entered her home in a wealthy middle-class neighborhood, she discovered that Sheba's family life was not as easy to associate with her image. A mentally handicapped son...
Yes, everyone in society is a sphere, all you can understand is a small surface that she touches with you...
In Sheba's own unique small room, Barbara saw Sheba's works, as well as her past: punk dress, uninhibited and disdain in her eyebrows... Maybe, everyone tried to rebel when they were young , as a final resistance to the adult world she is about to enter, but most people will eventually submit; but occasionally, she may withdraw for a moment from the role that society has assigned her to play, and ask herself: " Is this the life I want? "What would have happened if I had let my temper go on?" Now, Sheba is confiding her confusion as
a middle-class intellectual woman who seems to live a carefree life: "You know, marriage and children are actually very happy, but unfortunately it is meaningless, just fulfilling obligations, but not able to. Help you.." Barbara listened kindly, but she defined this kind of rant as: "The special characteristics of the privileged class, and they are familiar with it when they first met."
Yes, for a retiring old maid teacher in a public high school, Sheba has too much:
"People like Sheba, who think they know what it's like to be lonely, but live their lives by counting the seconds, and don't know the future. The loneliness of ignorance, they simply do not understand. 』If Shiba's loneliness is a pool of water, Barbara's loneliness is like the sea, like the ocean...
She is a lonely boat, trapped and powerless. The only thing that can be hoped for is that one day, another boat was brought to her by fate.
Inadvertently, Barbara discovered Sheba's secret - an incestuous love with a student, she understood: the time to put the prey in the bag has come, "there is a golden opportunity in front of me, and I may be able to keep it secretly. Booty, I owe me a lifetime of favor in the long run...I can get everything I want, but I don't have to do anything"...
Most of the film seems to be calm, but in fact, the water is still and deep, like loneliness. Loneliness is so unfathomable that it drowns those who are trapped in it quietly. Just like in reality, one of the biggest taboos for a drowning person is to struggle desperately, which will only make her sink faster; if she calmly allows herself to feel the feeling of being wrapped in water, slowly she will feel lifted up. strength, maybe she will be saved from now on, and she will no longer be afraid. Of course, that requires considerable concentration. Just like facing loneliness, if you want to rescue yourself from the outside world instead of yourself, you may find that you are facing deeper loneliness or madness...
