1. When love is gone (Нелюбовь, 2017), the original meaning is disgust, and the real core, I think, is to express bureaucracy (as opposed to humanitarianism, which can also be confirmed from the process of finding children). The male protagonist's position in the big business can observe this, he is the so-called perfect screw. Fromm, Beyond the Chains of Fantasy, Chapter 11, some related thoughts:
The industrial system also had very unfortunate consequences. Production methods have changed considerably since the turn of the century, with production and distribution in large enterprises employing thousands of workers, clerks, engineers, salespeople, etc. They are run by an organized, authoritarian bureaucracy, in which each individual becomes a small or large part of a larger machine. He lives in the fantasy of being a "person" - at the same time, a "thing". As a result, we can see that there is a growing lack of a spirit of adventure, of individualism, of the desire to make decisions and take risks. The goal is to be safe, to want to be part of this powerful, massive machine, to be protected by this machine, and to feel strong in a common connection with this machine.
2. The heroine said an absurd thing after an intense sex session, and this lie she didn't even realize was regarded by many viewers as an expression of true feelings. She said to her lover, "I love you, I have never loved my husband, and I got married because of pregnancy." The reason why this absurdity comes from examining the life of the heroine, depicting the family's In the beginning, we saw that she was addicted to using social networking sites, took a disregarding attitude towards her husband and children around her, and mentioned the upcoming subway line and the new church nearby to the guests when she was about to sell the house to promote home sales. (There is a kind of deceit behind the advertisement or propaganda), such a woman, when she mentions that she will love, is a ridiculous statement, because love is a kind of ability, which does not depend on the different objects. The reason why she mistakenly thought that she had found true love, that she would love at last, was because at this moment she had found a sanctuary where she could live, a temporary respite from the exhausting state of life. At the end of the movie, she stopped walking blindly, but she was completely lost, and she could no longer remember what she should be like as a person.
3. The birth and death of that child coincides with the beginning and end of the marriage. It is indeed sad.
