Personally, I understand that the film mainly expresses a nostalgia for the old but beautiful things that have disappeared in the historical trend. The creators endow the civet cats with human thinking and emotions, and in the final analysis, they are still depicting human nature. Facing the establishment of the new order and the impact of the new forces, the defenders of the old order tried to block them with the power of the old order (illusion), and failed after staged comedy. The defenders had to integrate into the life of the new order. Only through illusion, the things from the good memories of the past can be brought to the front. The so-called environmental theme is born from the beautiful and harmonious ecological environment contained in the old things.
