When I saw the layout of the scene, I was really shocked by Feng Daopi... I was also convinced that the performance was finished in a parking lot for three hours.
The heroine is called Grace, which means grace from God. Grace is the outflow of God's love. The essence of God is love. Why can't she be God? The narration leads the story to a moral and ethical level all the time, referring to grace as a tempting forbidden fruit, but don't forget Feng Dao's identity as an antichrist, I prefer to see it as a blasphemous and judgmental parable Isn't the taking and rape of God's love the essence of a hypocritical believer's belief?
Tom established an exchange relationship with Grace from the very beginning, indicating that the divine grace has been blasphemed from the very beginning, making the divine grace subordinate to the economic category and losing its sanctity. What followed was intensified insults. Tom is more of a theologian than a philosopher in Dogtown. He always flaunted his love for Grace, and when he finally fucked her, he said they all fucked you, why can't I. An outbreak of a twisted ascetic belief. If Grace has always symbolized the image of a virgin woman like the Virgin Mary, then in this forced depravity she actually became a symbol equivalent to the great prostitute of Babylon. In terms of appearance, there is not much difference between the two images.
At the end of the father-daughter dialogue, Grace's desire to forgive everything further shows her identity. They accuse each other of being arrogant-arrogant, but who is the most arrogant and most qualified to be arrogant? God. Father and daughter are actually two sides of one body, grace and judgment. Both parties knew of the inexorable relationship but at the same time did not accept each other, which was why Grace left in the first place. In the end, Grace inherited the authority of her father and began the doomsday judgment. All people will be judged by God in the end, and the righteous and the wicked will enter heaven and hell respectively. It's just that there were no righteous people, so the trial turned into a one-sided slaughter.
Maybe they don't have to go to hell. After all, the world is full of sin, and it may be a hell in itself.
