The most dramatic thing is that the protagonist of the film, Grenoye, is a person with no smell, no smell, no morality, no love, no good and evil. He is a "blunt" person, and he can't even be called a person. He is between human and inhuman, emotional and non-emotional, moral and immoral, but he seems to have love again. He uses the human body to make perfumes, completely without moral concepts, annihilating human nature. When he first saw a girl selling yellow peaches, he was attracted by the girl's smell, and then had vague and dirty feelings. At this time, he was still somewhat human. But then Grenoye killed the girl by mistake, leaving the girl with no smell, so he made up his mind to learn how to keep the smell of people, and keep it forever. In the scene on the execution platform, when he conquered everyone, he thought of the girl selling yellow peaches that made him emotional when he first entered the society, and then shed tears. He seemed to have emotions and humanity again. In the faint, self-contradictory, his humanity, his emotions, flicker from time to time. ()
