The title of the film shows the connection between people and dogs, not only the connection in life, but also the dog to imply people.
The first scene at the beginning reveals the moral of the whole film. Maqie is bathing a very fierce dog. Because it is too aggressive, he has to tie it with an iron chain and coax it to give it a little bit. It takes a bath. Later, Simone, who had just been released from prison in the community, came to Macie to ask for cocaine. Macie gave it to Simon, but asked Simon to smoke it elsewhere. Because his daughter was bathing the dog in the kennel, Maqie cared about his daughter the most, but Simon didn't listen to Maqie at all, and instead hid in the bathroom to take drugs. Simon is a former boxer in the local community, the big guy, Mache or the rest of the community is not his opponent at all, and no one dares to deal with him, he bullies the weak, burglars, steals Mache's next door neighbor's safe, horses Che took the blame for Simon and spent a whole year in prison. After he was released from prison, Ma Qi asked Simon for 10,000 euros as compensation for his crime. Simon, Simon didn't give any compensation to Macie. So Macie broke Simon's motorcycle with an iron rod to vent his anger. Simon injured Macie in his rage. Macie stood alone by the sea. At that time, he had already made up his mind to take revenge on Simon. After returning from diving with his daughter, he lured Simon into the cage of the kennel. He did not want to hurt Simon, but asked Simon to apologize to himself, hoping that Simon would respect himself and put him in the kennel. He treated himself like a human being, but Simon didn't have the slightest remorse and broke through the cage. Mace stunned Simon in a panic, and locked Simon with the chain that locked the dog at the beginning of the film. He stopped the bleeding from Simon's wound, which showed his heart Just want to get Simon's respect instead of hurting him, in the fight with Macie after Simon woke up, Macie strangled Simon for self-protection, when he pulled Simon to the suburbs to burn him, he heard from football. The voice of his friends in the field, but when he put out the fire on Simon's body and went to see his friends, there was no one on the football field. Although Marche made up for it, he still lost his friends. Harmony is destroyed after all.
As a disadvantaged group in society, Mace has to rely on a violent powerhouse like Simon to survive, but the fact is that he does not have to rely on him and still has friends to survive. Maybe he has the illusion of becoming a friend of the strong. Go to make compromises with Simon again and again, but Simon never regards him as a friend, just as a weak person who can bully and hurt at will. When he finally wants to return to the community, he can't go back, he lives like a dog, separates the strong from the weak, and Maqie is the weak, but once the weak is disrespected beyond the limit he can bear, he will eventually Subduing the strong, in your own way, is ultimately to gain respect. Marche's performance is excellent. In the last scene, the director is alone with Simon's body in an empty square, abandoned by the community. He is more lonely to be abandoned than to be disrespected.
