Youth, rebellion, walking on the edge of the cliff, the collision of lonely hearts, showing the cruelty of reality and the powerlessness of life, only because of each other's dependence and snuggling, love is precious. The film opens with a funeral. The son of the deceased, in the last two minutes before the funeral, walked into the church with a big swing. Unusually, he did not sit down in his seat. Instead, he went straight to Dad's body. Knocked on "Father's House" and sighed, "Still dead."
Then, without hesitation, he turned and left with his hands behind his back. After attending his father's funeral, he rode a bicycle and smoked a cigarette to swim in the busy streets, giving people a different feeling with the explosive BGM. Such a one-shot opening makes people who have seen it fall in love with it instantly.
And this seemingly dashing man is the male protagonist of this film, Jonathan. In this film, he is a melancholy rebellious youth. The male protagonist, Jonathan, a 19-year-old rebellious youth, has long learned to take drugs, pick up girls, and steal. That night, he drove a stolen luxury car, carrying a beautiful woman he had hooked up with, laughing and talking about his sick father. After a night of running wild on the road. In the evening, Jonathan, who was still laughing and laughing, drove the beautiful woman out of the car in the morning with a serious face.
Then he carried Dad's urn, increased the throttle, and rushed off the cliff.
No one wants to die, but when there is no love in life, how do you choose. How tiring it is to endure loneliness! Many people may have had suicidal thoughts, but not many people have put them into action, because they have not reached the point of no attachment. Lucky Jonathan fell off a cliff only to break a finger, and when he woke up, Jonathan, in order to avoid the guilt of stealing a luxury car. He promised to go to a psychiatric hospital for three months to "receive treatment." But these three months changed his life, and in the hospital, he was still a normal Johnnerson. Every day, the doctor poured chicken soup for the soul. There are a lot of people in the same way, a lot of mentally ill people who have attempted suicide.
Here, Jonathan meets a girl with short hair, and the melancholy look in his eyes makes him addicted. Her name was Rachel, and she had witnessed her mother fall off a cliff and die. So she had a bit of a mental breakdown and had multiple suicidal acts. When the two embraced for the first time, something happened that terrified Jonathan. While enjoying the hug, she took the knife and cut her wrist, and there was no pain in her expression, but some enjoyment.
This scared Jonathan, who liked this lovely girl and could be said to be the fulcrum of his life. Now Jonathan, there is no suicidal thought in his mind, he likes Rachel, likes the feeling of being with her, it is she who gives Jonathan hope, when there is someone important in life, he will especially cherish the beauty of this world, thank the Creator for his grace, let me meet the most important thing in life. Maybe it's because of empathy. These two people with the same situation walked toward each other step by step. In addition to his lover, Jonathan also gained a good friend, Toby.
Toby, who is also a patient. He also wanted to die because of the death of his brother. Usually, Toby has a cheerful personality and always takes Jonathan out secretly over the wall. They went to bars together to drink, fight, and share each other's experiences As they got along, the friendship between the three of them grew stronger. But this short-lived happiness, on the night of the New Year's party, came to an end. Toby copied Exactly what Jonathan did, he stole a luxury car, rushed off the cliff, and he died!
As for why Toby chose to die, no one knows. As the film says: You can never know what people think in the moment of suicide. Because you succeed, you can only guess for a lifetime; if you fail, he will never tell you.
The departure of their best friend left Rachel and Jonathan in grief again. The fragile Rachel, the world that had been hard to reshape, collapsed again. Once again, she stood on the edge of the cliff. But once in the company of Jonathan, the two held hands, and Rachel took the ice cream that Jonathan had fulfilled his promise and slowly walked away. Suddenly remembering that line, when you and I have become important people to each other, is there a reason for nostalgia for life. I also believe that they who have walked on the edge of life will cherish every inch of their lives!
In the film, Jonathan once said: If we are both important to each other, I want to live, live longer than you, and look good to see if you are doing well. If your life is not satisfactory, or even have the idea of taking your life, please think about the people around you who love you and you love, this is the reason why you live! Please also be kind to everyone around you, maybe your kindness will give others great courage.
