It covers and deciphers all the mysticism and religion in the world... From Jesus as a thief to becoming a disciple, from the ascetic penance of abandoning everything in the world to the journey to the holy mountain, from letting Jesus follow the woman who loves him back to the world and his own people, To point out that the holy mountain is unreal, and the journey itself is just a movie.
From the world, to mysticism, and finally back to reality. The film is truly self-referential: the search for the answer to immortality toward the holy mountain appears real, but the journey is unreal, real in life. The audience tries to find the motive of this film in this dazzling symbolic film, and the final answer is "goodbye to the holy mountain, the world is waiting".
Those who have no roots in the world can only turn to the truth, while those who are cared for by love in the world can and need to return to their own people.
The film is too rich, too many symbols, and it loses its meaning when read. I like it so much. Finally, let's excerpt the lines at the end of the film:
"Forget the summits, reach eternity through love. Return to your country...this is your family and your people. Change the world. "
"We came in search of the secret of immortality to be like gods, and here we are, mortals, more human than ever. If we have not obtained immortality, at least we have obtained reality. We began in a fairytale and we came to life! But, is this life REALITY? No, it is a film...We are images, dreams, photographs. We must not stay here. Prisoners! We shall break the illusion! Goodbye to the Holy Mountain. Real life awaits us . "
