Xiao Ben is an art student at the University of the Arts.
Susie is Ben's ex-girlfriend, and they spent two and a half years together.
Why say it's an ex-girlfriend, because on this day, Susie thinks that the home flowers are always no better than the wildflowers, and don't want to miss the outside more wonderful, better than Ben.
So I found a reason to break up with Ben.
"I have to say that every time life's critical hit comes so suddenly"
And Ben was devastated from then on, depressed, he could not sleep all night, he could not even feel the passage of time, and his mind was full of Susie.
On this day, he went to the supermarket to buy something, but found that he had no money to support his future life.
He felt that he could sell the extra 8 hours of insomnia at night to the supermarket in exchange for some remuneration.
In this way, he met a group of friends in the night shift of the supermarket.
Love football, eccentric supermarket owner, old Kim.
Two silly brothers, skateboard brothers and bald brothers
As long as you're not embarrassed, it's someone else who's embarrassed
In addition to being allergic to time when working the night shift, the only female cashier Xiaosha is still normal.
Brother Gong ya who loves martial arts
Each of them has their own way of passing the time, trying to make time pass faster.
But Ben's way of passing the time is just the opposite, he imagines time standing still, and then every night and night to paint Xiaosha.
Yes, that's right, in fact, throughout the movie, all the time is static, all of which is imagined by Ben himself, not what others say has inspired superpowers.
In the supermarket, time stands still, and Ben quietly traces the outline of Xiaosha, while all the still pictures use overexposed color processing to produce a surreal situation.
In some films, overexposure is often used to create a surreal scene when describing dreams.
Most of the shots in the supermarket show the relationship between Xiao Ben and the environment, and also compare Xiao Ben with other people in the environment, highlighting Xiao Ben's tragic situation.
This night, Xiao Ben and Xiao Jin drank coffee together, and in the chat, they found that each other's experiences and concepts of life were extremely similar, and slowly they both had feelings for each other and confirmed the relationship without breaking the window paper.
And every movie always has a line that impresses you, and here I found a line that impressed me
"Knowing what you want is half the battle, and most people don't know what they want for the rest of their lives."
Xiao Ben's dream is to be a painter, this day Xiao Ben received a call from the gallery manager, saying that after seeing Xiao Ben's works, he wanted to open a gallery for him to exhibit, Xiao Ben was happy and broken, but he did not expect that it was a prank of the two stupid brothers.
On Saturday, they were all getting ready for a party.
At the party, Ben accidentally bumped into his ex-girlfriend, and the ex-girlfriend came up to kiss Ben without saying a few words, and Ben just pushed away, but he didn't expect to be seen by Xiaosha, who was looking for him.
He ran to find Xiao Sha, but saw a scene of déjà vu...
Little Ben was once again injured by tons and began to be depressed
"I have to say that most people, like Ben, are not ideal for emotional trauma."
Xiaosha quit her job at the supermarket and got a job as a travel agency.
On this day, he came to the gallery manager with all the paintings of XiaoSha, but the manager said that he did not know him at all, Xiao Ben knew that he was found happy by the two stupid brothers, and when he wanted to leave, the manager said that he had come, it was better to let me see, this look was amazing, when he learned that Xiao Ben still had hundreds of paintings, he immediately decided to open a separate exhibition for Xiao Ben.
And XiaoSha also received an invitation from Xiao Ben, on the day of the exhibition, Xiao Sha came here, looking at hundreds of portraits, hanging all over the gallery, her own portraits, she was stunned.
Ben just wanted to explain the accident that happened that night, she said it doesn't matter, your paintings, more than your thousand words...
Because Xiao Ben stopped the time, he slowed down and captured the heart of the beauty.
And in this anxious, busy era, how many people are willing to sacrifice time, slow down, or even stop, to discover the beauty and love in life.
The same is true of love, as it is said at the end of the film: "Love is all around you, you just need to see it, it is wrapped in beauty, hidden in the floating light of your life, if you don't stay for a moment, maybe you will pass by it"
"I'm Holly, may all the good things happen to you and your family, we, see you next time"
