remember the conversation when the three first arrived in the Sahara.
Tunner: We were definitely the first tourists after the war. (We must be the first tourists since the war.)
Kit retorted: We are not tourists, we are travelers. (We're not tourists. We're travelers.)
Tunner: What's the difference? (What's the difference?)
Kit replied: Tourists are the kind of people who want to go home as soon as they arrive, Rainer.
(A tourist thinks about going home the moment they arrive, Tunner. )
Porter continued: And the traveler may never go back.
(Whereas a traveler might not come back at all.)
Tunner: You mean, I am a tourist. (You mean, I'm a toursit?)
Kit replied: Yes, Rainer. And I am half and half. (Yes, Tunner. And I'm half and half.)
The desert implies being lost, the protagonists lost themselves in the desert, the sky is covered by yellow sand, can no longer find the way home, Potter will stay forever Sahara, became a traveler who can't go back to the past, lost her lover, and wandered with the camel gang.

The last shot of the film falls back to their original hotel, back to the old man's face, he was expressionless, and the voice-over sounded the old man's voice:
Because we don't know when we will die, we get to think of life as an inexhaustible well
.
Things happen only a certain number of time. And a small number, really.
It happens only a few times in life, yes, maybe only a few times. How many times will you remember an afternoon of your childhood
. an afternoon so deeply a part of you that you can't be without it? Perhaps four or five times more. Perhaps not even that.
How many people can you recall on such an afternoon? Maybe four or five, maybe not so many.
How many times will you watch the moon rise? Perhaps 20. And yet it all seems limitless. How many times have you
seen the moon rise in your life? Maybe twenty times? Yet people feel that everything is free to splurge.
After watching this film, I can't help but think of you, me, and how many chances are there for each of us to get lost?
