The weight of loss before death is the theme of the second long film of Alejandro Gonzales Iñárritu shot in 2003...
I am not sure how the 21 grams are calculated, but in the film, the contradictory pattern of life is dramatically depicted in the three intersecting stories. Tragically brillant, and the way of narrative functioned precisely in the whole film. Benicio Del Toro, Naomi Watts and Sean Penn are all good actors and they show their excellence in the film. The story says 'life still goes on', and what then? How would our state of losing the 21 grams be conducted? When one is looking for a new life, the other is donnating one's fate to a stranger. Life weights more than it appears, and never could we understand how we would walk to the end to lose the extra weight. We light our light and we live our life.

What really matters is not the weight of our souls, it is how we live our life.
