This is doomed to fail simply because no one can completely solve the liberation for others. Everyone in the movie has their own pain and troubles, let alone taking care of others. life is suffering. If you don't accept this, you may not be able to face life directly.
As far as I know, even many successful people in high positions (struggle by themselves) often experience pain, suffering, and even endure unbearable things that ordinary people don’t know about: either to maintain their own status and interests, or The mind is deeper than the average person. Therefore, success in learning this secular standard cannot actually help most people's daily psychological state. It is also intended to be an elite and a torment. It is useless for you to say to young people, "Be a better version of yourself, believe in yourself, you are not bad"; because apart from those who are consistently lucky, the pain of reality and the weakness of the ego are undeniable, and turn to others for help Often useless.
What to do then? Or forget about it, indulge in the enjoyment and triviality of day after day, as if you have forgotten all of it. Get lost in day-to-day repetition or desire. Like most materialists do.
Or there is another option: you must first admit that life is painful, and unsatisfactory is the majority, and you will make mistakes and be hurt all the time. Thinking about it again, is it necessary to give up life completely, and become like Anders, feeling that life has lost its meaning, that it cannot be accepted by others, and it cannot be accepted by myself, so I run to nothingness-choose suicide. No, no, and what I want, and the people I love, the world I love. If there is still some desire and love from the heart, then go for it. The meaning of life is to make the world in your heart a little better, and make the people you love and those who love yourself a little easier. In this way, I will have redemption, some happiness, and some meaning to live.
Anders' loved one didn't answer his phone, lost his last love for this bleak world, and so he ended his young life.
Even so, we have no right to say that this is a tragedy, and judge Anders's pitiful and hateful from a high position, because we don't know what the meaning of our life is.
As his fellow human beings, empathy is perhaps all we should and can do.
Finally, evaluate the film language itself. The pace of the film is smooth and smooth, and the white space and monologue are just right. The lens realistically and objectively captures the helplessness, anxiety, and independence of the protagonist, infiltrating a quiet and sad mood, which complements the cold and empty atmosphere of northern Europe. As an audience, the overall viewing experience is very good, but I am afraid it is too realistic and too gentle, and there is always such a taste of subduing depression that I will never forget.
