triumph of idealism

This film reminds me of countless scientists and philosophers and artists who have sacrificed for their beliefs. Such as typical idealism - Nietzsche.
Since ancient times, idealism is mostly a joke that adds a mantis to stop the car, but I would like to quote a sentence for my great idealism statement: the ending of an idealist is tragic and never pitiful! ! ! ! !
David, an absolute idealist, a martyr of faith, chose a Socratic death to awaken the hearts of the people with his own death. In history, Socrates refused a friend's offer to use gold coins to help him get out of prison. Awaken the youth of Athens by his own death. David in the movie was martyred for his idea of ​​"abolishing the death penalty", and Socrates was martyred for upholding the truth. Life is strong because of dreams and great because of ideas.
Death is not the end, new life will be continued, they will have a better life, see a more beautiful world, and know more things. The idea of ​​the deceased will be inherited by the living. (This film pays homage to Socrates and expresses the director's humanitarian view of the death penalty.)

Just agree with David and their ideas to write this film review. does not express any views other than this.
