This film tore off the mask of delicacy, hypocrisy, and restraint of the middle class. The male protagonist was embarrassedly unwilling to hand over the condom after a one-night stand, and the reason was very difficult to explain. While looking around, I don't want anyone to know about this unfavorable thing, while without the arrogance of intellectuals and literati, "power is an aphrodisiac", and at the same time, the female reporter's expression "you have other things besides status that attract you." This point of view of "I" seemed very ridiculous in an instant, at a loss when dealing with a little boy, and he was unwilling to communicate with him on an equal basis because of his identity. The viewers face the embarrassment of tearing off their clothes and making them naked in public. While mocking the male protagonist for being selfish, stubborn, and accustomed to deciphering others with bad thoughts, they will also reflect on themselves in real life. . At the same time, the film's in-depth interpretation of social problems in Europe is also very good, such as the problem of reverse discrimination caused by political correctness: the beggar insists on asking the male protagonist to buy bread for him, and repeatedly forbears the male protagonist to throw the bread at will. Turning away from the table, this plot raises a very sharp question: When the weak turn against the customer, where is the bottom line of friendliness and tolerance?
Of course, the most serious refugee problem in Europe should be a red line of political correctness. This film has a metaphor in the climax, when civilized people, high-end people and actors play savage, rude beasts in the restaurant. It is embarrassing and absurd. At the beginning, "Gorilla" satirically humiliated a group of self-esteemed elites. The elites were accustomed to the friendliness and politeness of keeping a distance, and were very embarrassed in the face of this simple and direct aggression, but when the situation began When it got out of control, everyone finally put down the burden of the so-called civilized people and stopped this farce. In the face of a series of security and other problems caused by the increasingly serious refugee flow, is civilization really useful? Perhaps violence is the way out? Here, this film provides a relatively extreme way of thinking, and also has a so-called "tolerable and unbearable" meaning, and also expresses the director's position and views.
