    i feel like i'm dreaming
    — what if you are?
    i want to wake up.

    from the beginning of the journey, i gradually entered & fell
    in love with the bizarre world in the film. there's a disposition
    between literature and art. images and narration have their
    unique expressions. the ruins have fallen leaves, the dense
    banana forests, and the theaters of the border folks have
    photographed the scenery of the southwest that they are
    used to seeing with a strange…

    a subtle film that depicts living with a loss. this film is like
    standing in a corner of the characters' lives, looking through
    the joyful scenes in the slow pace of life. for chunyuan, it was
    just an unfamiliar intrusion, attracted by various things here,
    blended, and gradually combined to exude the true meaning of
    self. this is the pace that needs to be entered slowly, follow up,
    and experience the unique observation in the unique lens, like a
    bird singing.

    i think that reading and writing these e-mails helped
    me recover, little by little. you are the one that i want
    to understand me and how i feel everyday. I will be
    writing you from now on! i need you too ( ^ ─ ^ )

    a unique love story that depicts the love between two
    characters who met through email. this film came out
    25 years ago, but it still feels relevant today because
    feelings haven't changed over time.…

    anywhere you go, sad is sad.
    and the lonely ones are lonely.

    a warm and soulful film that is heartwarming to watch. i
    enjoy films where not much is happening, and there is no
    dramatic development, but the plot still serves a purpose.
    it has a pleasant and gentle atmosphere that it makes you
    immersed in the scandinavia cityscape. watching this film
    made me want to be snuggled in my blanket & eat rice balls

    i would love to visit scandinavia one day to experience
    the nature, delicious food, and the feeling of the city.
