Wei Ma is an accomplished and talented doctoral student who has published countless papers and is about to graduate early.

However, on the eve of graduation, she suddenly decided to quit and switched to selling pancakes.

The road to selling pancakes is not so easy. During this process, Wei Ma gradually began to have the hallucination of "Dr. Wei Ma".

One day, Wei Ma found a blog, which clearly recorded her daily whereabouts and mood.

She began to wonder which is reality and which is illusory, and what exactly is what she wants.

After going through all kinds of twists and turns, the truth came out. It turned out that the owner of the blog was Wei Ma's roommate who stayed in the United States!

Studying in the United States is a doctor who is still struggling in the quagmire after reading the tenth year. She does not understand Wei Ma's decision very much, and gradually splits the personality of "Dr. Wei Ma": now you are not you who sells pancakes! What about your ideal aspirations to change society? Have you forgotten the night we stayed up together? What about the next one that will take me to the second work? The "Dr. Weima" personality who stayed in the United States could not forgive Weima and decided to replace it.

During the fight, the glasses of the personality of "Dr. Weima" were knocked to the ground, and Liu Mei saw her real self in an instant. She ran to the middle of the road at a loss, and in the headlights of the truck, she seemed to be on the podium...

Wei Ma rushed to save Liu Mei.

In the end, Liu Mei was admitted to a mental hospital, while Wei Ma opened a chain of pancake shops.

In the end, in fact, all this is an illusion of a girl named Yoko.

Yoko is an ordinary doctor, but she always fantasizes that she is a genius doctor. After many major blows, the personality split and the above story was staged.

The last, the last, the last, is that true? hey

    The first animation directed by Master Jin Min, it turned out to be so awesome! In contrast, "Black Swan" is like a poor imitator. The split of personality, the confusion of dreams, drama and reality are so weird and outstanding, only animation...no, only Jinmin's animation can do it! The sharp editing made the audience very nervous for 80 minutes. Constantly thinking about the true and false of the plot and personality. Sweating cold all over. The black swan is weak! //20180923SAME French screening. After many years of painting, I bought a set of original painting storyboards, and read Jin Min's book to understand the ins and outs of the production. The scalp is still numb in the theater. Except for the flaws in the painting due to production problems, it is perfect in plot, storyboard, and music. Dream and reality, reality and illusion, split personality, play in play...there are all interlocking, the master's debut works immediately reveal sharp edges, and the shadows of later works can already be seen

    Personally, I also think that the first few victims were killed by Wei Ma himself.
