The persecution of individuals by the system is everywhere, just in different degrees

First of all, the film shows the process of misunderstanding, reconciliation, and appreciation between father and son in a clever way of reminiscence. The original misunderstanding between generations contains similarities in temperament and quality between father and son; at the same time, it is the director who admires the process. Not blindly criticizing hegemony, but calmly and restrained and expressed relatively objectively. This is in sharp contrast to the special court of the film. It is typically a scene where the ambassador and the male protagonist’s father face off at the end. The essence is that your child is externally unfair and whereabouts. If you don’t know, you still know to find it. Isn’t the US government the same as you? So many of our companies are treated unfairly here, shouldn’t we protect their interests? He is also a child of the United States. This kind of polyphonic co-sing makes the drama full of tension, and the three-dimensional vigor of the hegemony itself is expressed, and it is not presented in a facial expression; the silent statement of the realist tone at the end, on the contrary, highlights a great sense of sadness. What is the United States? The superiority of the passport is a silent mockery of the U.S. passport. Even if you have a U.S. passport, you are an American. When you violate the interests of this huge system of the United States, you will be buried in the wall just like those people. The universality of the system, ideals, and the sense of weakness and incompetence shown by the reality of interests is undoubtedly obvious, but if you have the opportunity to express and criticize, you should still be silent, or sing the praise of the difference!
