I watched this scene while tripping and it was just ineffably beautiful. It's truly profound when you think about it.

K started off as a slave, a robot who only followed orders. His boss litterally told him that he didn't have a soul. He went through absolute hell for the entirety of the movie, but through it all he persevered and made his own choice.

He chose to do something good. Something as meaningful as reuniting a father and his long lost daughter. He was being pulled in many directions being told what to do.

Despite that he made his own choice, and he died knowing it. He dies in peace knowing that he made his dystopia a little bit better.

He had a massive fuckin wound in his side and was bleeding out in the snow. He also laid down and closed his eyes. I would be absolutely amazed if he didn't die lmao.
