The beginning of 8.2 is somewhat like a Requiem for a dream, extreme expressionism, avant-garde Half METAFILM. But later, the director still took care of the audience's feelings. On the surface, he was still telling a story. If he had been actively following along, the idea would be quite clear.
It's just that in the spiritual expression of the protagonist after taking drugs, the montage, light and color blocks are a bit too much at the beginning, slightly uncomfortable, and there is a suspicion that the form is greater than the content. Add a filter or adjust it later.... Is the light after the protagonist's death the medium for the soul to travel through? Light and shadow changes should also allude to emotions.
In addition, there are also a lot of sex scenes in the film, various types of drugs, uncontrolled and brutal sex, expressing the original desire of human beings as animals to the fullest, betting that half of the film's production staff are Take medicine.
Interesting is the lens language and themes, the long shot + POV in the first half and the perspective of God after the soul out of the body in the middle and back.
What will happen to people after death? At the beginning of the film, the "Tibetan Book of Rescue of the Dead" sets the rules for us, starting with death and ending with reincarnation. I have been thinking about it before, but there is nothing that can be realized. The film at least gives a reasonable argument, so that when we think about this topic that never has an answer after watching it, we can have something to say in our minds. .
