It’s a strange day. An unidentified person lives in an alien environment which is full of surreal politics and ideological colours. Everything looks fantastic, but it projects a profound reality. We are humans living in a particular corner of the earth, it may be real. All the time, space, crows and cats, classrooms and flaming clouds……the authority portrait and the hospital torture, absurd story can be found in every dark corner of the world. We exist under such controlling rules. How to find ourselves? Does time allow us to see our own behaviour clearly in this historical process?
