At the same time, I saw the movie "Tower of Babel", which talks about the plight of people in the world.
In fact, the names are the same, it is an untranslatable noun: BABEL (Babel: chaos).
The Tongtian Pagoda reminds me of another name, Zhuangzi's "The World in the World".
The movie is shocking.
The mountains of Morocco, the deserts of Mexico, the buildings of Japan, and people in different living conditions are
encountering their own destiny because of inextricable connections. It made me feel that the world is so big, so strange, absurd and chaotic, and that
there is no communication and understanding between people, people seem to be abandoned into this desolate world, but have to struggle to
survive .
I can't forget the bleak evening when the ambulance helicopter churned up a strong air current over a small village in Morocco;
the Mexican nanny took the host's two American children and was helpless under the scorching sun when they were trapped in the desert outside the country. The waving red gauze of the dress
; the embrace and weeping on a balcony in Tokyo, as the camera zooms out, finally dissolves insignificantly in the
lights of the entire metropolis at night.
The final subtitle of the film is:
Dedicated to my children,
XXX and XXX,
the brightest light in the endless night.
Absurdity is the world. Tragedy is people. What makes us live here today? Xu is the warmth of that little bit of light.
