Squids and whales - life as it is

After thinking about it for a long time, the actor of my brother turned out to be Zuckerberg of "The Social Network". I like the folk music of the 60s and 70s in the film. I didn't think it was shooting with a hand-held camera, so I thought it was a bit of a street scene shooting. A picture of American humanistic landscape in a microcosm of an intellectual family. What does the scene of the squid and whale at the end of the film mean? I believe it's that view of people and life, but it doesn't make much sense to me personally.
