Calmly talk about channeling

I actually think this film is trying to tell the audience about psychics, hoping that people who don't understand or don't believe can experience the world on the other side from more dimensions. Just discussing the plot and shooting techniques should not be what the film hopes to leave to the audience.

This film does not use psychics as a medium to tell stories of different timelines, but introduces the audience into a world where psychics exist and can watch life and death through several calm and slightly ingenious stories.

However, the topic of life and death is too grand. In order to allow people to think about or pay attention to such a field that cannot be explained with "rationality" for the time being, the film only touches the boundary of this Hongda field-spiritual Media, people who have experienced "death". Maybe the author/director has experienced such things, believes and wants more people to understand such a world, so he slowly tells the story in the film...

    George Lonegan: Okay, he came back. He's here. He says if you're worried about being on your own, don't be. You're not. Because he is you and you are him. One cell. One person. Always.

  • Billy: Did you do the reading?

    George Lonegan: Look, you still don't get it, do you? You think just 'cause I can make money doing this... just because I can, that I should do it.

    Billy: [shrugs] Yeah, yeah I do. I also think you have a duty to do it, because you have a gift.

    George Lonegan: It's not a gift, Billy, it's a curse.
