the main theme of the film. I think it is mainly in two aspects:
(1) The question of meaning, this film inherits modern Western philosophy The critical theory of metaphysical ontology believes that meaning (essence) is an external addition, and we don't know anything. The whole film shows a strong "existence before essence" and agnostic color. The play tennis game also symbolizes the unreliability of knowledge. The truth is determined a priori by people's inherent logical structure, and does not necessarily exist.
(2) Criticism of patriarchy and artists, the film's The photographer (director) is above the model (actor), they have the right to control these "livestock" (West End Kirk famous), they can ask them to go to bed, and they will be abandoned after the shooting. Introspection, in the film deliberately emphasized the director's angle of shot. The photographer in the film is an artist, he traveled between the slums and took shocking photos. So the audience knows he is rich. He needs to use these pictures to make a name for himself.
