"If only time could stop for even three minutes
What would you do? ”
This sentence is asked at the beginning of the film "Hourglass of Time", the protagonist of the story is two girls in the same class in high school, Misuzu Moriya and Haruka Murakami, they have very different personalities, Moriya is not good at communication, taciturn, is an unnoticed presence in the class, she can make time stand still for three minutes, whenever she can't stand the embarrassment of communicating with people, she will let time stand still, and then quickly run away
Unlike Moriya, Murakami is a dazzling presence in the class, she has excellent academic performance, looks quiet and beautiful, does not refuse the requests of her classmates, deliberately tries to please everyone, strives to maintain her own circle, and becomes the most popular person on the surface, she is a well-behaved girl, never done anything out of the ordinary, and becomes the most enviable classmate in the class
Their circles are different, and there is no intersection. However, in a conversation between Moriya and his classmates, Moriya once again chose to avoid communication, and then when she ran away, in the stillness, she peeked at Murakami's skirt, and then was surprised to find that only Murakami's time had not been stopped, and Murakami used this as a threat to let Moriya accompany her to do something
In the following days, whenever Moriya stands still, Murakami will do something that she will not do, she can stand on the table and shout loudly during the exam, take off the school uniform and put it on the teacher's head, and also make conspicuous and ugly marks on the notebooks of the classmates she does not want to pay attention to but still help with the lectures, she can finally be herself without scruples in this short three minutes, instead of being a model student and a well-behaved girl in the eyes of others, she can finally stop caring about everyone's feelings
Until one day, in order to understand Murakami Moriya came to Murakami's home and discovered her secret
Under a sticky note full of words, hidden secrets
Murakami remembers everyone's dislikes and preferences, she deliberately pleases everyone, in order to be popular, let everyone like herself, carefully manage her own circle, live as others are optimistic, she is not happy, and the book that belongs to Murakami's preference has long been blank
She lived without herself, and she longed to be herself when she was dressed according to other people's preferences from an early age
Moriya wants to help her, and during an argument, he finally speaks murakami's heart
She acts recklessly in places that others can't see, just to let others know the real self, she willfully speculate on the preferences and moods of others, put herself aside, and make simple evaluations of others
Fear of living in the same world as others, afraid of being discovered by others to discover their shortcomings, and live like others
At the end, just as Moriya's stationary ability disappears, Murakami understands that she was able to enter Moriya's time because she wanted to share this time, the time that belonged to them, not to escape, not to deliberate, not to be afraid of a person, and to be brave enough to be herself
