During the twists and turns of the transfer of the funeral parlor, his father's words and deeds gave Mo Sanmei a deeper understanding of death. At the same time, he and Xiao Wen also redeemed each other and sympathized with each other. Father and daughter. In this process, the audience can easily catch the shadow of themselves and their family members in this family, and develop empathy .

And this is just as the director said: talking about death in the most vital place is actually talking about how to live well.

At these two moments, people lose all autonomy and are completely dependent on the help of others. For this reason, the doctor who delivers you and the funeral worker who sends you away are also very great.

Many undertakers left messages on the Internet saying that in the movie, the undertaker smoked the neighbor's husband, but the neighbor's wife angrily told her husband to wash his hands. Similar scenes touched them deeply, and they are often not understood in life, which is very disturbing. edge.Another netizen whose online name is " mortuary " posted that as an mortuary, he never knew how to describe his career to his children. After "Life Events" was released, he saw himself in it. The epitome of starting a business, I have mixed feelings in my heart, and I can't help but burst into tears. The most rewarding thing is to tell the child, "Dad is also a star grower." At this moment, the child stared at him without saying a word. Many netizens left messages of encouragement, "You are all great, you are all star-seekers."

Previously, many movies about death have achieved good social response with clever angles, such as winning the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film. 's Japanese movie "The Embalmer" can be regarded as one of the most famous funeral-themed movies. The male protagonist Kobayashi was originally a musician, but accidentally became an embalmer who arranged the remains of the deceased. He gained insights from the farewells one after another. The true meaning of life.

There is also the popular Pixar animated film " Coco " which used colorful pictures and singing and dancing scenes to create a warm and gorgeous world of the undead. There, the world of the dead and the real world are connected through the bridge of love. Death is a continuation of love and beauty, a performance dressed up in costumes. Relatives who are far away can also get together to drink and talk. The movie uses wild imagination to change people's inherent concepts of death, outlines a fairy tale-like ghost world for us, and tells people: "Death is not the end of life, forgetting is."

The footage of "Life Events" this time As romantic, simple and sincere as the death in the lines, when Mo Sanmei turned her father's ashes into fireworks, the moment the fireworks bloomed, the audience burst into tears, and a fairy tale exploded deep in the hearts of the audience. As brilliant and brilliant. "Every star in the sky is a person who has loved us." At that moment, I suddenly understood that funeral culture is actually a healing culture.
