Markey, whose parents were long-time workers in the George family, was shot by the Paris government for a march called by the National Liberation Front, in which nearly 200 Alguineans were killed. George designed to expel Markey not only because he was afraid that he would take away his own love, but the deeper reason was his deep-rooted racial discrimination, he despised black people, and he never felt sorry for Markey. In front of him, he is always righteous and arrogant, and he arbitrarily believes that everything was done by Markey without any investigation. In his subconscious, he has long determined that black people are guilty and unclean. The deputy pretended to be calm, and even put the blame on Markey's son, never showing any remorse.
There is a scene of a confrontation between George and a black man in the film. George calls the black man a pig and an idiot. This scene directly shows racial discrimination, and the programs broadcast on TV are also ethnic conflicts that occur every day. When Markey's son came to him and asked him about his father's death, he said, "Your father's death has nothing to do with me, do you want me to apologize?" "To whom? To me?" This is not a simple apology. The solution is not to apologize to one person, but to apologize to a nation. Sadly, George never regretted it until the end.
At the end of the film, it doesn't tell us who the culprit behind the secret filming is, but that doesn't matter anymore. The person behind the camera may be a god, maybe the director himself, no matter who it is, the important thing is that he reveals the truth and shows us the truth. reality. At the end of the film, Maki's son went to the school to find George's son. After talking for a while, the two left. The director silenced the content of the dialogue, which left us with suspense: whether the ethnic conflict between the next generation can be resolved, Still hurting each other.
The film not only reveals the inferiority of human beings from the perspective of ethnicity, but also shows the multiple levels of human nature from the perspective of family.
George is not a likable character, although he is suave and knowledgeable. He is a highly educated social elite, but he has a hypocritical nature that does not match his identity. In order to conceal his unbearable past, he refused to tell his wife when he guessed the murderer; after meeting Maki, he still deceived his wife with lies; as a last resort, he explained the identity of Maki to his wife, but he still arbitrarily The guilt was imposed on Markey; even after Markey committed suicide, he omitted what Markey said to him, insisting that Markey was the culprit.
Compared with George, Markey is always in a weak position. His parents died early. Fortunately, he was taken in by his master. He should have resented George, but he didn't. He was always friendly to George, even if George slandered him repeatedly, but his tolerance pushed him on the road of death. In order to no longer suffer unjust injustice, the weak and powerless had no choice but to choose to die. His son said, "The orphanage only taught people to hate, but my father taught me so well." Markey always treats others with a kind heart, but where did his tragedy come from? Not his bad character, but his origin, simply because of his black identity.
The George family in the upper class is bright on the surface, but in fact it is broken. Apathy and lack of trust among family members. His mother was sick and George didn't know it (Markey knew his mother was sick), and he rarely visited her. During the conversation with our mother, we also learned about his family situation: "We are usually busy and rarely meet, and there is nothing to talk about when we meet."
Anna carried George behind his back and had an extramarital affair with another friend. Knowing that, the queen ran away in anger, but the husband and wife did not know it until late at night to find out that their son was missing. For their son, they never cared about his thoughts, cared about his whereabouts, and even suspected him. He didn't start talking to his son until after he was lost and found, but the conversation was always so blunt, they always seemed like two familiar strangers.
Markey said to George, "I believe in you, but you don't believe me", and George didn't believe Markey, Anna, Piehou, or even his own mother. What a despicable person this is, he uses his evil heart to guess all people, such a person will never know what love is, nor how to love, sad!
