Whether the dream is a virtual reality or a virtual reality, is it imaginary, or is inextricably linked with reality, this film tells us a very strange answer, that is: the dream is the continuation of reality.
First of all, let’s talk about the core of this film, that is, what this otherworld is. In essence, it is a dream of a group of people, but this dream is shared, and in reality, this group of people needs to be maintained uniformly, only these specific maintenance coma Only people with special skills can enter this special dream, but here is a bug, that is: what is a wanderer (black mud man)?
Regarding this question, I tend to prefer that the rogues are the patients in the mysterious institution, they are just brain dead, but this extends to another question, namely: why didn't the instructor (the person in charge) kill them directly, just like the plot kills them at the end Like everyone else, since the actual body dies, the existence of the dream will also disappear, and the teacher can freely enter and leave the dream, so why should the existence of these wanderers be preserved? Is it intentional to maintain a survival mode to maintain an "ecological balance"? But that doesn't make sense.
If all the foreshadowing of the coach is to find the male protagonist and stimulate his potential as an architect, then the foreshadowing of the plot will not be so rich in an instant, because the male protagonist's ability will be found after the fact that it is not difficult to stimulate, or even very easy. Once the so-called Neverland has been built, it seems very procrastinating to go around such a big circle.
But if the instructor himself didn't understand how all this was going on, then it would make sense. For example, the instructor couldn't control the rogues (who were not subjects at all), then the question arises, the rogues are not the subjects of the experiment, is this dream not Shared by people in the lab? Is it possible to enter the consciousness of a comatose person who has nothing to do outside? That's a lot more interesting, but the film doesn't explain it clearly.

There is also a strange "infection method" about the wanderers. It is infected when you touch the wound, which means blood transmission, but in fact, the description of this detail in the film is not sufficient, and you can see several "blackening methods". : One is swallowed after being killed by a rogue, and the other is a new rogue after the wound is infected. So the question is, these two methods can be equated with brain death in reality, but what about normal death in dreams? It's not said in the movie, like when he goes to the factory and the tank gets shot, if he dies, he also becomes a rogue or what?

In short, what is reality and what is virtual is difficult to distinguish in the film. In the dream, these "normal people" are the creators and the creators of the entire dream, while in the dream the "factory security guards", they Similar to NPCs, although they can act normally, they have no normal thinking and no superpowers. In contrast, rogues seem to be a more dangerous existence, becoming a species that simply hunts "normal people in the dreamland", but the film There is a scene that is difficult to explain, that is, the last infected armed head is holding a signal transmitter to lure the rogue, but the rogue seems to "consciously" ignore him, and this "consciousness" casts a shadow on the position of the rogue. After a layer of veil, are the wanderers conscious existences, or are they pure wandering souls? We don't know.

After all, the hard film has opened up an infinite brain hole for us, and the concept is very peculiar, and it expresses a deep thinking, namely:
If the two experiences are the same, do you choose the mediocre self in reality, or the self who hangs in the dream.
This will lead people to think further: Does existence determine consciousness, or consciousness determines existence?
In reality, it is the physical body that exists that determines the virtual consciousness (that is, the reality in the dream); but conversely, in the dream, it is the consciousness that determines the existence of the dream. As for the latter, if technology really arrives on the day when experience can be indistinguishable from reality, can it be said that human beings have answered this question, that is, the fundamental question of "what is this world?"
That is to say, the world in which you and I exist may also be a dream shared by everyone, and perhaps the people who die in "this world" are the real awakenings. Our bodies are maintained in a unified way, or only It is necessary to maintain the physical body of a small number of creators (Adam and Eve), and the remaining 6 billion people are the product of dreams, so that the reigns of the monarchs who started on the Sumerian King List for hundreds of thousands of years can also be explained. Maybe from a certain period, all the creators went offline, but this dream (our world) has not been closed, and it has become a forgotten corner. Maybe one day other creators discovered this corner and reopened On the line, that day may be the day when those myths and legends come true again.
