The story unfolds in the decline of the Mayan civilization. At first it was a group hunting of the tribe where the protagonist "Tiger Claw" belongs. Under the leadership of Tiger Claw's father, an experienced hunter, a wild boar was forced into the design. Good trap. Tiger Claw shared the fruits of labor with his partners, and put one? Take the legs home. (Men’s responsibility one: to support the family and build a good material foundation for the family).
But the good times didn't last long. Tiger Claw's tribe was attacked, the village was burned down, and he became prisoners. His wife and children were placed in a deep hole to escape the enemy's capture and killing. He is still alive and dead, but what worries him most is his child and pregnant wife. (The second responsibility of a man: protect the personal safety of his wife and children from outside intrusion). He left a sentence: I will be back.
During the escort, a companion of Tiger Claw was injured and struggling to move, which affected the progress of the entire team. He was beaten and scolded by the enemy. Not only did Tiger Claw not be beaten and scolded because of the involvement, but he also tried his best. Helping a partner almost lost his life. (Men’s Responsibility Three: Do your best to help your friends, no regrets)
After arriving on the Mayan pyramid, Tiger Claws realized that they had been arrested as sacrificial offerings to the sun god to quell the plague brought about by the god's wrath. Fortunately, the solar eclipse saved him from being sacrificed in front of the altar, but it became a game doll for the samurai to kill people. What follows is a jungle version of "Desperate End", in front of him, not only the enemy is chasing after him, but also the sinister natural environment, quagmire, cheetah, poisonous snake, cliff, any small carelessness and Carelessness will cost you your life. Coupled with his own serious injury, letting him escape is simply an impossible task. But there is only one belief in Hu Claw's heart, which is to fulfill his promise and return to his wife and children. Because they are still trapped in a deep hole, waiting for him to rescue them from hunger and rain. (Men’s Responsibility Four: In any case, we must do what we say). It was this belief that gave him infinite strength, overcome all difficulties, and returned to his wife and children like a hero.
At the end of the film, Tiger Claw took his wife and his two children to the depths of the dense forest. Behind him, under the cannon of the boat, Western missionaries and adventurers began to set foot on this land where the tiger claw family lived for generations. What awaits the tiger claw is the unpredictable destiny, and come back to start a new life and raise the two. The important task of a child growing up. (Men’s Responsibility Five: Raising Children and Allowing the Next Generation to Live Independently) The
story can take place in dense virgin forests, in fact, it can also take place in dense modern society; the pierced Mayan warrior can wear a suit and leather shoes, modern Urbanites can also hold primitive bows, arrows and axes; ancient and mysterious sacrificial rituals can be staged in art theaters, festive celebrations in the alleys can also be held in pyramids; cheetahs can haunt highways, and maglev trains can also be used in primitive forests.
Everything can be changed and changed, just like the stage props can change with the development of time and history. The only constant is the actors on the stage, which is the responsibility of the man.
