Everyone is hurting others, whether it is a stranger or an intimate partner, all interpersonal relationships are full of estrangement and alienation.

But now, it seems that everything has returned to the original point, the previous expectations have failed, and it is even more distressed. Her husband Li Lizhong had the possibility of being promoted in the hospital due to the death of the former team leader. For this reason, he did not hesitate to sell out his colleagues in front of the leader to eliminate his competitors. At home, he didn't care much about his wife Zhou Yufang's writing, but felt that writing was not difficult. His few expressions and mechanical style of life make him seem extremely cold, lacking enthusiasm, just like a modern rational face. Such days of lack of communication and passion also allowed Zhou Yufang to regain her love for her old lover. The old lover's affirmation and appreciation for her is the missing part of her husband. For Zhou Yufang, who is already in self-doubt, it is a matter of time to leave, and the random prank calls made by Shuan, who is bored at home, have become a metaphysical guide. fuse.
Shu An was injured and fainted on the side of the road when she jumped off the building and was about to serve in the military. A wealthy man who loved to walk the streets and play photography rescued her and sent her to the hospital. The man did not choose to call the police, but took many photos of Shu'an and posted them at home. This cool woman with short hair who is rebellious to crime is deeply attracted to him. The man from a wealthy family does not live a luxurious life. He has a regular girlfriend. He walks the streets all day and records the world with a camera. His way of life is different and outside the modern mainstream, which is why he has a soft spot for Shu'an, who is also "non-mainstream". They were like two beat youths, hippies. But Shu'an didn't like him. After the man confessed to Shu'an, Shu'an stole his camera while the man was asleep, but she finally returned the camera and left. Shu'an's departure and the act of trying to sell the camera were a deep blow, hurting the feelings of men, and men's infatuation with Shu'an deeply hurt the feelings of their girlfriends. They were lost in desire, selfish and willful. Then Shu'an and another man pretended to be a prostitute, and then robbed and danced with immortals in the hotel room...
Shu'an's prank call made Zhou Yufen have to doubt her husband, but she didn't make it clear that she had already made up her mind, but chose to leave suddenly. She revealed to her husband her depression and loss in married life, and Li Lizhong, who was confused, could not stop his wife from leaving. Then Zhou Yufen moved in with his old lover and joined his company to work. She won the grand prize for a novel inspired by her married life and the prank phone call, which ends with a husband killing his wife and then committing suicide. In reality, Li Lizhong failed to save his wife and was humiliated by his wife's lover. His promotion was also taken away by his colleagues. After he learned the content of his wife's novel (before he didn't know what his wife was writing every day, one could imagine How little communication between the two) and after learning the prank call, he planned to explain to his wife, but the wife just perfunctoryly said that the novels were all fake and had nothing to do with reality to kill him. Having fallen into the abyss, he needs relief, a new beginning, and an end to this absurd and desperate game. So he stole a police friend's gun, shot a passerby, killed Zhou Yufen's lover, and finally shared a room with Shu'an, whom he met by chance, in a hotel room. A gunshot rang out, blood splattered everywhere, and this bloody, grim, dramatic plot turned out to be just a dream.

Li Lizhong seems pitiful, but his cold and uninteresting life is like a torment for his partner, and Zhou Yufen's self-sensitive personality and betrayal also make her husband upset and overwhelmed. Li Lizhong's indifferent, stubborn, mechanical, and introverted character is also more likely to fall into despair and depression, and it is easier to make crazy actions. They haven't survived the seven-year itch. Under the fading passion and the motive of taking the second place, they have become terrorists who hurt each other and imprison each other, and this seems to be the normal state of marriage, a kind of fate. the direction of the marriage relationship.
