Film Description:
A woman is initially trapped in a black box, and her environment and appearance reflect her tortured spirit and psychology. When she leaves the enclosed space with the help of others, she feels the world again: the smell, the sound, the wind, the sunshine. She even thinks that she has gotten rid of the disease and is back on the stage of her life. However, at any moment, for any reason, or under the influence of some incomprehensible conditions, she may fall into an endless cycle of depression again, like an endless black hole, which is difficult to break free of and exhausts the spiritual strength of herself and others around her.
