is a slap in the face of our current reality. Show
personal life in the globalization of the markets. People live fast, disconnected from our reality, and disconnected from our real needs. I bring this film to the artificial need to fill that inner void with activity, hustle and bustle, a vacuum even at the highest occupancy still leaving empty.
This movie makes me thinking of how I think routinely superfluous needs to depersonalize me avoiding contact with my innermost being, and isolated from others, of life.
From the movie I suspect the lack of an I you, barred with the mobile, PDAs and computers, supplanting the visual and tactile communication by digital communication, hampered by the workload is not physical, intellectual, yes.
Reflecting on how I want to be somewhere with people being in another place and with others, and as between this loop appears to me the need for affection, closeness and intimacy, to search for the other, searching for harmony, while I realize that as me from fulfilling my need to pop the bottom, which I meet in my fantasy pseudo, producing a sense of mess, confusion and unhappiness. Shows
globalized world based on consumption in all parts of the world, power and domination, where we stop living life in its fullness to achieve higher status and greater property, amenities, at the expense of not being where we really want be. I realize how I avoid the detail and flavor of the little things, insignificant precisely because the tilde it before stopping to realize them.
Shows lack of commitment to the decisions we make, through infidelity, the film flesh by the reality of circumstances varied.
shows how we are not responsible for the consequences of the decisions we make, I realize how I am or not the responsibility of my life.
There is a clear sequence of this, Western mother is angry with the nurse when she realizes that her daughter is very interested in learning Tagalog (language of the nurse) and their customs.
shows how globalization, the use of technology, the rush, and live away from the present separates us from realizing the reality, and personal care to others, I realize the next step in how I live, I live from what I do, not from what I'm doing, feeling stress, anxiety and dissatisfaction, the expectation I put something else while living, or rarely matches the reality of what I'm living in right now.
shows how all this is a wheel, a vicious circle that is difficult to go out and encompassing all countries regardless of where each one has in this world.
The crisis of the capitalist system in its domestic side.
