The viewing process is completely brought into the experience of watching a documentary. This war film does not focus on the theme of justice or not, but just tells the audience the process of a submarine going to sea to carry out military orders. The destiny of a soldier, the destiny of mortals, an inescapable destiny. No matter what the root cause of the war is or what the moral stance of both parties involved in the war is, the war itself is completely destructive, hopelessly consuming, and cruel. Whether it is ignorant or purposeful, all fanatics who instigate and tout their passion for war are suggested to be drawn to the real battlefield no matter who they join (anyway, human society will always have a place where wars are ignited at any time), they must act as volunteers, Wait until they survive to decide whether to continue their war fantasies. Imagine that Hitler did not transform from the failed ideal of a small painter to the head of the party and state, but was a front-line soldier who threw his head and shed his blood for a few years, whether he would still be so fanatical and incited the hot-blooded young people in the country to enter the war of aggression one after another. After all, politicians are at a completely safe distance from the death reaping ground—the battlefield. If they win, they will be deadly and they will gain fame and fortune. If they lose, they will not be able to harm themselves and their families. The big deal is to withdraw from the stage of history and pay the bill. the interests of the country and the people.
