Life is so unbearable, we have a thousand reasons and ten thousand ways to die. But why are we still alive? hope. If there are no angels to accompany us through the darkest moments, we can still save the souls of others, but hope that our souls are strong enough.

[Exhibition at the China Film Archive] The real brain hole is wide open. The structure of telling a story to a little girl is very interesting and full of wild imagination. The two-line narrative mirrors each other, and what the innocent and cute little girl sees and feels is beautifully integrated into the story. Absurd, but fascinating, and ultimately heart-wrenching. Many magnificent and shocking scenery are actually shot in real scenes, which is breathtaking and admirable! The final tribute to the classic silent film stunt scenes is a bonus!
