In the first few minutes, I could not help crying It's not good for people to have no vitality, but when you are still in the stage of confusion about life, sometimes you can't help thinking about your future life. Life in old age is really daunting, especially when you are old like me who don't plan to cultivate the next generation. The function keeps deteriorating and there is no one around to take care of you. You can't earn enough money or earn enough money to live in a nursing home but meet a bad person or live in a good nursing home and meet a good person but get sick ...... All kinds of things can't help but make people feel timid about old age. Like Marquez's book, "aging is an indecent way and should be stopped in time." When someone loves you and takes care of you, aging is not in time even if it is indecent. It's necessary to stop it, but it's really hard to live when you're alone and old and unable to take care of yourself. Many of the characters in the movie have sad stories.

The protagonist Emilio was a decent bank manager when he was young

Trapped in the past, Rosario, who thought she was sitting by the window on the Orient Express to Istanbul, smoking, waiting for the train to arrive to be reunited with her husband, she was such a beauty when she was young

Antonia, who has three sons and two daughters and nearly fifty grandchildren, is hardly visited by anyone. She always keeps the small tea bags, sugar bags, ketchup bags, etc. provided by the nursing home, until the only grandson who occasionally visits her. Give it all to him, even if he doesn't like these little things, but it's all she has

Always walking on the way to find the phone and repeating "I'm going to call my kids they left me here but I'm alright they have to pick me up"

Karmina who never goes it alone for fear of getting caught on Mars thinks strange aliens are everywhere

When Ramon was young, he was an announcer. When he was old, he stopped talking. He just repeated what he heard.

Modesto, who picked clouds for Dolores when he was young, has Alzheimer's disease and is admitted to a nursing home in order to take care of Modesto as his condition deteriorates.

Miguel, who has never been married and has no descendants, is greedy for money and cheating, and likes to make fun of people when he is said, "You haven't loved others so you don't understand", but he gave everyone the most in the process of getting along with Emilio. Love

The film is undoubtedly very moving

It is also very consistent with my not-so-good old age.

After watching it, I seem to have a lot of feelings

But I still don't know how to deal with the situation in the movie.

but

now understand

It's too early
