The film is not simply a critique of totalitarianism, its more profound point is that it deeply satirizes the revolution that started from gangsters and the ruins after such a revolution, and is full of reflection on history.
To think that this film is just about the French Revolution, I think it is distorting the director's original intention. As soon as the opening, the director used the mouth of the bird to say, "It's completely true, this is my experience, and the experience of many people" - of course, the director will not think that this film is only for French people, but for human beings History, especially the 20th century history of mankind in general, is full of references.
The film can be seen with reference to "Snowpiercer". It's just that the resistance of this film is in the name of love, and "Snowpiercer" is in the name of family affection. The ending lies in revealing the inevitable destruction and disaster after blind resistance.

    The most impressive animation as a child. When the concept of romance and fantasy had not yet been formed in my young brain, this animation became my most intuitive mentor. This kind of concept implantation, which is almost inception, cannot be understood by people who have not experienced that era. At a time when the Internet is highly developed, people who watch this animation from the Internet, and then evaluate it as meaningless, can't understand it. Later, the city in the sky, ICO, Wanda and Colossus, these animations and games that reached the art level can see the shadow of this animation.

    The political metaphor is actually quite straightforward, probably because it is a fairy tale. So there is always a happy ending.
