The troubles of those who have no life

A whole heart trembles, the lens language is rich, there is a clear message transmission, a whole collection of synaesthesia.

Use four dreams to connect the life and the current journey together. To be honest, the dream and the things experienced during the journey are quite a castle in the air for ordinary people, so it is not necessarily about everyone's big troubles in life. It is the distress of some philosophers, the distress of some people who are not down-to-earth and have no real life.

The dream at the beginning is surreal, followed by two dreams of childhood life, and a dream of being judged in a classroom and witnessing his wife Nogayu on the grass and commenting that he is so indifferent that he does not care about it.

Going back to the language of film, there are many things expressed through natural scenes and phenomena, such as looking into the room from the window, seeing a human face, and stepping back is the sky; The rickety shadow of the old man as he passed by; the flock of birds flying over the treetops; the clock without hands. Sometimes he can't breathe, although he said that his childhood memories are the light that warmed him before falling asleep in his long and dull years (the state is very similar to a baby hoping to return to the mother's womb), but in this way he spends his indifferent life , is also somewhat ridiculous.

All the way to death, seeking repentance and redemption in the last few days. The end of the movie gave a warm ending. Perhaps the conversation with three young people and his daughter-in-law on the road in childhood made him wake up and cause qualitative changes, but it was quite sudden.
