Are you also curious about the complex gray industry in Japan? What is the trajectory of the lives of the women who have been involved in it? Can they still face their past in the face of the eyes of the real world? This film is like a mirror that reflects the real life of this special group.
"The Worst" is a film that shows us how these women face the challenges of their lives in different family backgrounds through three very different heroines. They have all set foot in that seemingly glamorous but thorny field, but the reasons behind it are different.
Keiko, an ordinary woman who originally had a stable marriage, embarked on that path angrily because of her husband's indifference and alienation. Her choice is not only a rebellion against her husband, but also an unwillingness to her fate. Caihua, a girl from a poor background who works alone in Tokyo, the pressure and confusion of life make her finally choose the path that seems to bring fame, fortune and success. And the woman who has quit the profession to become a female high school teacher, her past is ruthlessly revealed, putting both her and her daughter under great pressure.
The stories of these three women are intertwined to illustrate the challenges and dilemmas faced by women in society. Profession, which is supposed to be just a part of life, has become the only criterion for judging a person's worth in some places and moments. And in this film, we see how these women struggle, grow, and ultimately find their own path.
At the same time, the film also provokes us to reflect deeply on society. In our case, it seems that it is gradually moving to an extreme - for the sake of fame, fortune and success, we do not hesitate to give up the bottom line and dignity. And in this film, the women who shoot small-budget films, although they choose special jobs, still stick to their bottom lines and principles.
"The Worst" is not only a film about women's lives, but also a deep reflection on society and human nature. It makes us re-examine our values and morals and think about what true success and happiness are. Perhaps, only when we truly let go of prejudice and stereotypes can we see the truth and beauty in everyone's heart.
