After watching it, many people went to discuss the film's human nature, morality, politics, etc. I admit that I haven't watched it that deeply. The first thing that attracted me to the film was the picture and color tone. Just taking a picture is a good photographic work, so that it reminded me of the very sarcastic saying, German flavor, master, poison! I wondered what artifact they used, and then I saw that it was actually filmed, and I worshipped again!
He may be right about what the clerk in the film predicts will happen amid danger and endless fear and lack of hope, saying that as long as there are two people there will be factional religious politics, killing each other, etc. , but I think this part of the film is too sudden or even abrupt, and it feels very didactic. And since they know what may happen in the future, and it is something they don't like to see, they do not take effective measures to let things happen as they expected, is it to verify how good their predictions are? Is it correct? In the end, they chose to leave instead of actively looking for the key to the problem and properly solving the problem. They left, under the banner of freedom, neither interfering with the freedom of others nor unwilling to be controlled by others. In this matter, it is obvious that the people who unite together have a better chance of survival, provided that there is a sober person to guide. This is reflected in leadership, position, politics, etc., but those sober people seem to reject these words too much, and they give up these obligations in the name of democracy and freedom, although it is sometimes said that the distribution of power to a few people is a Dangerous, but sometimes beneficial. The most important thing is to see who is in the hands. I don't know what the protagonist's group was thinking at the time. Although they were sober, they didn't think about how to do things.
It is understandable but regrettable for the actor's final decision. I think there may be another interpretation of the fog is that without independent thinking, you will lose yourself because of the loss of discernment; those who are clear-headed and appear rational will also be lost, they are too obsessed with believing and obsessed with their own judgments about things, rather than real understanding.
