Suicide Store

Camus begins "The Myth of Sisyphus" by saying that "there is only one really serious philosophical question, and that is suicide."

This is a sentence I saw in high school, and I don't know much about it until now.

Whether suicide is a philosophical question aside, the French animated film "Suicide Shop" that makes a fuss about suicide is really interesting.

The gloomy and shadowy city, adults with ashen faces, and an endless stream of suicides, are "suicide shops" that make a living. The owner is a couple who are like thieves from Jiangyang, and they sell all kinds of thoughtful suicide instruments; After the background was laid, the youngest son of the protagonist appeared and saved the world with his Lotte power.

The story is simple but very novel, the characters are exaggerated but very vivid, the integration of music is contagious, and with a little French humor, the whole film is interesting and interesting.

The film ends in chicken soup, roughly because it's not worth giving up your life because you're overwhelmed.

In fact, people who choose to commit suicide are in the minority, and respectable suicide is the minority among the minority. Death is only to end this life or enter the sky, whether to be a martyr or to wake up the world, there is no way to ask the deceased for proof. I don't have any qualifications to judge whether a person's suicide is worthy and immoral. I always feel that it is a pity to die in vain. A suicide is just the first domino of tragedy. "When you die, your story ends, but there are always people whose stories are still very long."

I just saw the part about the suicide of the protagonist's mother in "Jewish Family History: A Story of Love and Darkness". As a part of the old and the young, her death brought huge negative effects to her children - he first He hated his mother, then regretted what he had done before, and finally came to the conclusion that his mother did not love him. Although I think it is really unreasonable to be kidnapped by blood and family morality (that is, people do have the right to choose death from their own perspective), I can't forgive this mother who destroyed the next generation's life in this matter. Her death has no meaning other than her own liberation, she is just a weak and bullying clown who bows to fate.

Perhaps when people really think about death as a serious philosophical issue, many people will not die on a whim.

    The songs in the film are really not good, but the creativity of the suicide store is awesome, the gothic cartoon characters, the imaginative black humor, and the weird setting of the French laughter, singing and dancing elements make this animation The film has become very unexpected, but unfortunately the melody is not very catchy, and the story of the whole film is too weak, the tone is also very weird and depressing, suitable for young and fresh bear kids with heavy tastes. ★★★
