Science fiction is obviously not the theme of the film, and exploring the relationship between people is the core of the film. As everyone who exists alone, what kind of person each person needs most to accompany, this film is based on this stubborn old man who is addicted to theft and has memory problems as a case, to start associations and discussions. In addition, the old man has been reluctant to erase the memory of the robot. Part of the reason is that as a person with memory problems, he knows the importance of memory to a person. In his opinion, the robot has long been a person, that is, his Existing as a partner, erasing his memory is equivalent to obliterating the existence of the partner.
