The feeling of drugs in me is to give people an unprecedentedly strong sensual enjoyment beyond reality in a short period of time. At the same time, it also increases your desire to a height that ordinary people cannot understand. People are often overwhelmed by this huge desire. Driven, do all kinds of things that go against common sense to fill it and satisfy it. Most of the other drug-themed film and television works I’ve seen focus on how to fight against this desire and redeem myself step by step. The pain in the end is far more than the pleasure of taking drugs at the beginning, and I can control it. a desire.
And this work is very unique. The drugs here have become a necessities of life for the characters in the play. Their enjoyment of drugs has become a part of their lives, and even a bridge to realize their dreams. The son and his girlfriend need to sell drugs to realize the dream of opening a clothing store; the mother needs to use it to lose weight and put on the dress she attended the son's graduation ceremony to prove her existence, and then tell her love for herself on TV in front of millions of viewers His family is so proud of his son; his friend will become the character he promised his mother when he was a child.
Look at what a bright and beautiful dream, there should be many paths to lead to, but they all chose the fastest and most dangerous path, and they had no doubts from beginning to end, so they went on like this, Then the dream shattered and reality came in. The film came to an abrupt end, and the drug has been playing in their ears like a magic music, full of their dreams, and when the melody is not in the ears of their sons and friends, they will reflect, I think.
I hope they finally woke up, struggled a lot, and had the same dream again, still with each other, but peaceful and smiling.
