Years later, the man received a note, judging by what was written, that the person who wrote it was God Himself. The note takes the man back into the cabin, and everything he finds here will change his life
This movie was watched in one go, and after watching it, I felt a lot of feelings, and it reflected the connection between my heart and "that world" through the expression of the plot.
People who have seen it, people who understand it will naturally understand, needless to say, people who do not understand, just to see a lively and entertaining is not to blame, here I just want to talk about their own ideas.
The biggest trauma of the male protagonist in the film is that his daughter was killed by a perverted murderer, which is the obsession in his heart, which cannot be put down, and later does not know who wrote to him and led him to the cabin where his daughter was killed, where he had a series of adventures, three people, three gods, representing the past, the present, and the future of them appeared together.
They have always been around us, the male protagonist does not understand, why "God" is around us, but can't bear to see his daughter killed by a perverted murderer, what is wrong with her daughter being so small?
The male protagonist has launched a series of questions about God, why would God allow what we think of as evil to happen?
The three represents, through a series of manifestations, have clarified the truth, it turns out that the world in our eyes is completely different from the world in their eyes, we can distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong, right and wrong, the criterion of judgment is from ourselves, who hurt us, so we think that the other party is unforgivable and should be punished, especially those perverted murderers, and should go to hell.
But how did the perverted killer become a perverted killer? He had a very unfortunate childhood, his father abused his mother for many years, and he often vented his emotions by beating his children for no reason, especially when he was drunk, he beat him more fiercely and inexplicably, and the killer grew up in such a family, and then gradually became a terrible demon who specialized in finding young girls to kill.
When the male protagonist knows the truth, he still can't forgive the person who killed his daughter, through God's arrangement, he saw his daughter in that world, he saw that she was living well there and was very happy, God said: Your daughter has forgiven him, she wants to see you, as long as you walk through the waterfall, you can talk to her.
"Whether to go or not, it's up to you to choose."
The male protagonist understands that if he chooses the past, he will leave the world where his wife and children are located, and he is not ready for the past.
God said, "It doesn't matter, she will be there waiting for you, you are only separated temporarily, you will see each other later." ”
At this point, the male protagonist still cannot understand why the murderer should not go to hell, God let the male protagonist stand in the position of judgment, and at the same time God pulled the male protagonist's son and daughter out, God said, If you choose your son and daughter, you can only choose one to go to hell, who will you choose.
Your son and daughter have made mistakes, they often play clever lies to deceive you, often do not listen to you, often self-righteous, if you had to choose one to go to hell, who would you choose?
The male protagonist can't make a choice, saying that if he goes to hell, let me go in their place!
God laughed, and the male protagonist, under God's guidance, forgave the person who killed his daughter, because the wrong thing he did itself was constantly deviated from the right path, which in itself had been punished.
Later, God led the male protagonist to see the original garden, all kinds of beautiful and colorful flowers, competing for glory, leading the male protagonist to walk across the lake, from the beginning of the fear that he would fall into the water, to walk calmly through the lake, it turned out that only the fear in his heart would let him fall into the water, as long as he forgot everything, straight ahead, you can cross any obstacle ....
Finally the male protagonist saw the world in the eyes of God, it turned out that in their eyes we are colorful light, because of the colorful so beautiful, only at the same time, will be like the flowers of nature like the flowers of the competition, each fragrant, this is the same as the dialectical thought of Lao Tzu, when things are opposed, we will have a discriminating mind, will know good and evil, beauty and ugliness, right and wrong, right and wrong, the most terrible thing is that when we all have to prove that we are "right", we all think that we are "right", When we all want to plunder other people's things, war will happen, and the world wars in history have already told us what war means, so needless to say, I believe that everyone wants world peace.
When he saw all this, the male protagonist was very shocked, he also saw his father, because the father paid attention to himself, so he was seen, on behalf of the light of his parents came to the male protagonist, the two embraced and encouraged affectionately, and made progress and growth together.
After the male protagonist woke up, lying in the hospital, he could not believe that the adventure that happened to him was a dream, he believed that it was a real world, he believed that death was not the final end, and then the male protagonist's life became happier, because the male protagonist was easier to forgive and understand others, more attentive to love his wife and children, more attentive to do his favorite things and experience life, he became a very happy and peaceful person in the eyes of others.....
