This film contains a lot of fragment. We can't tell which one is a movie, or which one is a tale. And we don't know anymore where the main story is. I'm very exhausted while I watch it. But when the film came to an end, I was a little bit shock.
I'm not sure that I completely get the message from The Buried Forest. In my opinion, it told us about two sides; the beauty of imagination and the cruelty of real world. Surely, I can't distinguish the fantasy scene from the real life scene. But the face of the leading actress and the music in the final scene put me through the deeply mournfulness. I think the girl finally realize that she has to come back to the real world. Possibly, the buried forest, the whale balloon, the camel are all just illusions.
It makes me think of Haruki Murakami's quote in Sputnik Sweetheart. It said "Someday, the real world will pull us back to our old world."
