Fictional stories, satirical films. The most quintessential part of the whole film is that the chef reprimands the chef for dropping his hair into the milk jelly. The metaphor is that the upper class does not understand the hunger and suffering of the lower class, let alone the life and death of the lower class. The protagonist brought in this Don Quixote, metaphor that the gap between ideal and reality is huge, which is a fundamentally irreconcilable contradiction, implying that resources are limited, and people must survive under this limited resource. The little girl represents beauty and hope, but this is just an illusion. It even represents a vulnerable race that is about to go extinct (little girl with black eyes, yellow skin).
