Many successful psychology books emphasize that in order to understand the world, you must first understand yourself.

The question of extraterrestrial life is one of the deepest philosophical and scientific questions, providing insight into our own place in the universe. Not only that, but it's an excellent mirror of our hopes and fears in a rather religious way. This sci-fi film is different from science-fiction films in the previous sense in that it focuses its energy on discussions about science fiction and religion.
However, from the perspective of film length and visual effects, it is not recommended for general audiences. Because there are no visual effects, he does not want to attract people's attention with the perspective effect, but wants to show human beings' thinking about themselves in the way of exploring alien life.
The film is based on Carl. Sagan. He was both a Pulitzer Prize-winning writer and a true scientist. Carl is an active proponent of space exploration, contributing to the vast majority of unmanned exploration programs in the solar system. Much of his work has changed our understanding of Earth's place in the universe.
At the end of the film, the subtitle to carl in the lower right corner under the starry sky is a tribute to him.

    The beauty of the universe is astonishing, and the atheist must be given a star!

    If we can take the advocacy of reason as the consensus (but for cruel reality, please refer to those short comments that will be wrong), then scientists and pastors can also love each other. There are two places where my tears are about to fall: the pastor asked her why she dared to sacrifice for space contact. She talked about the knowing smile of who we are the three Ws; she saw that no words can only be described in poetry The magnificent celestial phenomenon was weeping with joy. This is the charm of pursuing truth. Teacher Tian Feng recommended it!

    Alien: you have your mother's hands... You're an interesting species, an interesting mix. You're capable of such beautiful dreams and such horrible nightmares. You fell so lost, so cut off, so alone, only you're not. See, in all our searching, the only thing we found that makes the emptiness bearable, each other.
