Nor is it necessarily sarcasm. I watched the film with my Christian colleague (but the subtitles in the front were not adjusted, and there was a delay). I mean reality is fake, Christian means heaven is fake, but I've also seen comments that think everything is fake. The allegory is too strong, but obviously if you have read the "Bible", you will understand it better, such as the story of one fish and two cakes, and the Pagoda. Jodorowsky's evaluation in China is still very high. Many people who like Zuo's also like another director who is famous for his style - Antonioni. Unfortunately, Anton's "Red Desert", as well as this film , this kind of film that weakens the plot and focuses too much on religious experience has never been able to bring me great attraction. About the ultimate dream/void in life, this theme has been frequently seen in modern literature. In the West since Kafka, so have Beckett and Ionesco; successor. Criticisms about desire are more commonplace.
