A college studentcame to a surreal fantasy world. The city he lives in seems to be Austin, but the rules and order of daily life seem to be completely broken. He wandered from one place to another, constantly encountering strange and weird people. The most interesting thing is that the people he met were talking about some grand and profound topics: from quantum theory to the origin of language, from existentialism to the reincarnation of human beings, from the absurdity of free will to film as a narrative tool, he fell into In one conversation after another. He tried to know whether he was in a dream or awake. But in the end he just found himself constantly waking up and falling into the dream again and again. He couldn't get rid of the dreams that emerged one after another, and began to understand the meaning of dreams gradually, and tried to control the dream and the surrounding environment, and distinguish the difference between the awakened life and the life in the dream

Although it is also rambling, it is not as moving as the sunrise and sunset.

About life, about philosophy, about the future, it seems to be nonsense all the way, but it is the director's thinking about life and death, destiny, and the ultimate meaning - this is Richard Linklater's "On Everything", although the language is vague, half-awake, messy, But what you see is what you get. "Discussing everything" cannot be exhausted, and "seeing everything" cannot be exhausted. Therefore, you don't have to care about how much you understand, what you see and perceive is "everything".

Boat Car Guy: I feel like my transport should be an extension of my personality. And this is like my little window to the world... and every minute's a different show. I may not understand it. I may not even necessarily agree with it. But I'll tell you what I've accepted: just sort of glide along. You want to keep things on an even key, this is what I'm saying. You want to go with the flow. The sea refuses no river. The idea is to remain in a state of constant departure while always arriving. It saves on introductions and goodbyes. The ride does not require explanation - just occupants. That's where you guys come in. It's like you come onto this planet with a crayon box. Now you may get the 8 pack, you may get the 16 pack but it's all in what you do with the crayons - the colors - that you're given. Don't worry about coloring within the lines or coloring outside the lines - I say color outside the lines, you know what I mean? Color all over the page; don't box me in! We're in motion to the ocean. We are not land locked, I'll tell you that.
