What does the movie "annihilation" mean?

This movie is about the protagonist Lena (Natalie Portman) who thinks about her husband Kane (Oscar Isaac) all day after work, because Kane disappeared for a year while on duty.

Unexpectedly, Lena was overjoyed when Kane came back from a highly confidential military mission a year later, but she soon found that her husband could not even answer simple questions and his life was dying. On the way to the hospital, they were stopped by a group of soldiers.

When Lena woke up, she found herself with Dr. Ventress. Ventress told her that a mysterious energy comes from Blackwater National Park, which is called twilight.

Three years ago, an unexplained light pulse caused low light, which is slowly spreading. But what is the broader truth and essence about the origin of low light is still unknown.

Lena volunteered to follow Dr. Ventress's footsteps and go to the restricted area with three other expert players-Josie (tessa thompson), Anya (gina rodriguez) and Cass Shepard (tuva novotny) to find the whereabouts of the players who had disappeared before and the significance of shimmer to mankind.

Extended data:

The film is adapted from the novel of the same name "Annihilation", and the original work is the first part of the trilogy "Lost in the South" written by Jeff Vandermill, the literary leader of "Novelty Tan", and won the best novel award in 20 14.

The trailer released this time starts with the heroine played by Natalie Portman, the Oscar-winning actress, who entered the mysterious restricted area with the Southern Expedition Team, indicating a wonderful and thrilling journey.

In this strange field, both the calculation of time and the growth law of species are quietly changing. The team members have successively encountered supernatural phenomena such as crocodiles with shark teeth, deformed bears with distorted faces, and plants growing according to human structures.

At the same time, the exposed poster continues the mystery of the trailer, which is different from the sense of time and space and the cold sense of technology in the previous "hard science fiction" movie posters, and instead highlights the mythical unknown and mystery of a "Cthulhu". In the poster, Natalie Portman leads a scientific research team through the dense jungle in the south, surrounded by strange light, which makes it more dangerous. What will happen in an unknown strange area is fascinating.

"Annihilation" adopts a nonlinear narrative structure, with the southern exploration of the expedition as the main line, interspersed with flashbacks of the heroine played by Natalie Portman, and the open ending creates an infinite aftertaste.

Different from previous sci-fi films, this film adds elements of horror and psychological fear on the basis of science fiction, so that the audience can face the unknown situation with the expedition. Whether all this is variation or evolution; Whether it is a disaster arrival or a rebirth, a series of suspense is expected (Tianjin Daily, March 23, 2008, comments by Liu Yin). ?
