The main idea of the film is to awaken the sense of urgency among Australian teenagers, and remind them that the Asian countries that are nearby are getting stronger and stronger, so they must catch up.
The main plot is that an Asian country invaded Australia, and a group of Australian teenagers escaped due to their outing, and then launched a guerrilla fight against the aggression.
The first half of the film is about the carefree outing life of ordinary Australian teenagers, showing the life of teenagers Content, thoughts, friendship. The second half is about the fact that they encountered the invasion, the changes in their thoughts and actions, reflecting the spirit of resistance.
Look at this movie that has been ahead of China for two years now, and the recently released Golden Heist is similar, but after watching the Golden Heist, you will feel a kind of sadness.
It's not the movie itself, but the mental state of young people. No doubt Ning Hao is using the past to satirize the present. The state of contemporary Chinese youth is cynicism, street party, unable to care about any events other than their own survival.
