On the surface, the story of the film is a satire of religion and society, but in fact it is a strong yearning for a better life, and it is a surreal portrayal of life that is closest to "real". The genius director Jacques expresses his yearning for an ideal society and his critique of cruel reality through his wild imagination; when people no longer worry about death, it means they have gained freedom to a certain extent, but such a seemingly beautiful world , but caused unexpected "trouble" to God.
Because the little girl Yiya couldn't stand her father's violence, she chose to paralyze her father's computer, thereby revealing the date of death of people, and decided to run away from home and create a new life of her own. Following Jesus' command, she gathered the eighteen disciples in the world, and re-wrote the "Super New Testament" through the story of the six disciples who escaped to the world. In this book, the story is no longer about God. It is people's understanding of the meaning of life; she came to the world through the washing machine, not only to get rid of her father's clutches, but also to hope that people will live their true self and no longer be at the mercy of God, so she summoned six different life experiences 's disciples, they represent six different types of people, but their vision for life is surprisingly the same.
The first disciple, Aureli, is a woman with outstanding appearance, but she lost her left arm in an accident, so she fell into her own lonely world, and her distrust of others has become a shackle in her life. How? Breaking this demon in her heart and regaining her self-confidence is a problem that has always plagued her; the second disciple, Claude, is an explorer who yearns for freedom, but inadvertently stopped to pursue another kind of freedom, perhaps He wanted to prepare for his next expedition, and when Yiya explained the true meaning of freedom to him, he set off on his own adventure.
The third disciple, Marco, could not live a normal life due to strong hormones. However, when Yiya asked him to dub an adult film, he unexpectedly satisfied his desire. Not only did he have a job income, but he also realized himself. Years of desire to "have the other half"; the fourth disciple Francois has always believed in the so-called fatalism, because he is always full of evil thoughts, so he has never experienced the true meaning of love, but when he has a love for Aurelie At the time of love, not only did she let go of her evil thoughts, but she also unexpectedly saved Aureli's inferiority complex.
The fifth disciple, Martina, has never experienced a beautiful married life. Her husband has not fulfilled his responsibility to her, but only maintains the so-called husband and wife relationship. The date of her death is a kind of spiritual release for her. , From then on, she no longer lived with her husband "step by step", but lived a new life of regaining her freedom. The sixth disciple, Willie, has always dreamed of being a beautiful girl in a beautiful skirt, but because of his frail and sickly childhood, his self-spirit has always been oppressed by the cruel reality. However, with the help of his parents and Yiya, Willie realized it. He has been dreaming of a princess for many years and has thus gained a "new life".
At the end of the film, Yiya's mother created a new world, allowing people to rediscover the value of self and life; in fact, finding oneself and enjoying the present are not contradictory, and the so-called authority of God is just an "era" The microcosm, and the "God" in each person's heart needs to be created from the "heart".
