we are animals

animal translates to beast, which I think is quite appropriate. After Nietzsche reassessed the value, the value of all civilizations is questionable. In limited judgment, only human feeling is reliable. Therefore, we are beasts, we don’t have to pretend to be civilized people, we just need to face the naked truth.
The male pig and the killing club he joined are such beasts, they have received higher education and accepted the spirit of suspicion and rebellion, not to mention that the doctor is a profession that often touches death and corpses. When the cold corpses are telling you about death and accidents, you can read the revelation of the world at this moment, everyone is going to die, and death is right in front of you, which is very exciting and very common. In the eyes of people who still have humanity, this kind of idea is cruel, but the cruel people also ridicule humanity, and how much ugly dust is covered on this gorgeous dress.
The logic of the beast is simple and direct, and it is a game of self-deception and superiority. Every time you kill someone, find a reason why the killed person deserves to die. The murderer is doing things for heaven. Later, he simply put aside the moral disguise and directly used the pleasure of the game as the rationality of his behavior. In our opinion, being cruel is unreasonable, and killing is not allowed at any time, but if killing is a game, who has never played a killing game, and who does not like a killing game, we are animals is not an alarmist, but fact to some extent.
Every child likes games, sometimes killing is a game, and sometimes children who play games are cruel. Children, games, coldness, three words are entangled in people's lives, namely childhood, present and logic. The film is preaching a doubt about how knowledge is related to value, are knowledge and value defended, and why are we arguing about it. What happened in the medical anatomy room is the confusion of modernity. It seems that after leaving the Garden of Eden of traditional morality, we can't find the paradise, but we are imprisoned in various strange professional fields, wandering anxiously and anxiously. Now, all the moral declarations that come out are of no avail, because the professions have been differentiated and isolated from each other, and experts have a higher and more isolated authority. We are waiting for an opportunity for integration, for mutual recognition and consensus.

There are some bloody scenes at the end of the film, such as the scalpel cutting a Y shape on the corpse, directly opening the belly, which has a lot of visual stimulation. The one I like is the autopsy of the male pig to his girlfriend. The background music is very warm. The male pig's movements are very careful and gentle, although the autopsy is unsightly anyway.
