It's a town that doesn't allow free thinking, and every member's brain is flooded with the same beliefs. Any young people and outsiders who tried to break through these restrictions were mercilessly murdered by the town's rulers. Until the last 5 minutes, I thought this story would be a powerful proof that the single-consciousness rule would collapse and the people would choose freedom. However, when the person rushing out of the cage is crushed by the oncoming truck, I have to say, the story is completely reversed, and human beings will endure ruthless rule, which is not only the pleasure of the ruler, but also God's will.
This is an anti-human, anti-liberty story. Peace and justice are the highest good of human beings, but they are ruthlessly ridiculed. I am still wondering, 95% of the time, the director is praising justice, why is it so devastated and desperate in the last few minutes?
After all, Voltaire, who was optimistic about the goodness of mankind, also wrote The Honest Man, which is a complete disillusionment of reality with ideals. Rather, such an outcome may be unexpected, unconventional, and cruelty is a stronger force. It can make people who pursue freedom wake up.
