The English film titled "The Wind Will Carry Us" comes from a poem that explores life and death. This is another work in which Abbas Kiarostami raises questions. Life and death are fateful, far beyond human control. The film views this primitive village from the eyes of an outsider, with a sense of curiosity and voyeurism. The extremely simple image seems to be a real record of the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the engineer in the village. In fact, the film is full of symbolic symbols, such as the mountain tortoise crawling hard on the mountain, and the phone call that must be answered on the mountain. The villagers all hint at a difficulty in communication. In a difficult state, life is still beautiful, and the passage where an engineer goes to a dark cellar to buy milk is simply a poem: The girl in red clothes who refuses to show up looks like an oil painting under the dim light. The engineer thought about it. Poems, with a touch of warmth permeating the cellar, can be called the least traceable colorful passages. The seemingly simple documentary picture hides the scheming, it can be said that it is "deliberately" to maintain the recording style. Therefore, the shots are mostly shot in the middle and long range, and the audience is forced to be pure bystanders, and they also play the role of voyeurism.

Abbas is a master of repetition, from "The Lover under the Olive Tree" countless times, to "The Taste of Cherry" several times asking for help, to the birth and growth stream n times asking for directions, to countless calls to the top of the mountain here. There is a sense of ritual, but the desire is simple. The protagonist of Abbas has become an independent category. They have a sense of elite and easy attitude, but they can also perceive surprise.
