SYNOPSIS

This film primarily depicts the differing attitudes of three girls when confronted with a car accident—rescuing victims, calling the police, or evading responsibility. The choices they make in the face of the accident are entirely distinct and will lead to completely different outcomes. The three divergent decisions become intertwined, conflicting with one another, each gaining or losing influence in turn. At the end of the story, it is revealed that there is only one girl at the scene of the accident. The three characters respectively represent the id, ego, and superego within an individual's personality. The dynamics among these three elements are a crucial source of human psychological states and social behavior. Only through reasonable balance and coordination can a person's psychological and social conduct remain healthy and positive.
