A discussion of the filmmaker's understanding about life and death, narrating a story similar to Nirvana. The Chinese title-"Wu Se Jie Tian”- comes from a Buddhist term that means the Pure Land. The story focuses on a character named "X" who falls into a dreamland after death to search for a kind of primordial energy of life and finally, in a sense, revives. The film attempts to convey the concept that death is a sort of mental release or a kind of natural ceremony which is extraordinarily powerful and romantic rather than an end of life.
