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.

The woman pouring water in the middle said, "Don't shoot me", until the end, I understand why, because including the funeral later, these are life, life, not the material of your camera. If you can’t really understand what life and death mean, It is superficial, ignorant, and disrespectful to use a camera to just look at the surface. The doctor said that once you close your eyes, you will never return to this beautiful world. There are always people who say that the world is more beautiful, but no one has come back from that world to tell us what it is like. Reality is more important than vows. These are not just things that go away with the wind. Death is the most terrifying disease. So at the end, losing the bones of the deceased is a kind of reflection.
