I want to comment because I see a lot of comments that don't match the facts of the movie

Everyone has their own understanding, I think the film is about a mother with schizophrenia who suffers from schizophrenia trying to create a Platonic "Republic" style of life, and the hero is just to help his wife cure the disease Cooperate with her to do an isolated family life. At the beginning of the movie, it talks about how the father trains the children. Finally, the dialogue between the male protagonist and the children cremation of his wife finally reveals the true expression of the movie. In the play, the male protagonist's mother-in-law shows a letter from his wife to the male protagonist. It is also the finishing touch. "If you assume that there is no hope, then you guarantee that there will be no hope. If you assume that there is an instinct for freedom, that there are opportunities to change things. Then there is a possibility that you can contribute to making a better world." The little boy's quotation of Noam Chomsky is perhaps the most perfect expression of the film.

The most meticulous film I have seen so far this year is full of romanticism and no lack of rational reflection. Everyone yearns for a simple and free utopia, but human beings have already pushed themselves on a complex and institutionalized road without turning back. The person with the most story is the mother who has not played alive, and the director must be the same person who wanders between the two worlds like her.

In an overly extreme way, he created a worldview that seemed to be unique. While his father was contempt for God, he played the role himself. Something to hold hands to survive. So apart from playing with warmth, it's not very interesting. To let go of yourself, you must finally learn to compromise and enter the world.
