The wind is blowing, what will you do?

This is a movie with a very serious core wrapped in a funny coat. There are a lot of laughs in it, but it makes me shudder after reading it.

A man who once turned an entire nation into a madness, if re-emerged, still has the ability to incite people. There is no shortage of contradictions and conflicts in any country at any time, especially in countries with mixed populations of multiple races, ethnicities and religions or with acute social problems. As long as people with intentions take advantage of this, the consequences will be disastrous.

This film is a preview, a pessimistic vision for the future of Europe with today’s serious refugee problem and rising nationalism. If the current situation continues, Europe will become more chaotic, and it is also possible to fall into this situation. Not just Europe.

On the bright side, this movie is also giving us a shot, reminding us in this situation to stand firm and not be easily instigated.

I think that the complaints about the social status quo in the film are still very restrained. It doesn't want us to do what it wants, showing its own inclinations strongly, it just spreads things out and lets us decide for ourselves what to do.
