The film exudes praise for the initial state of human society. The Kalahari area is the last Eden on the earth. The Bushes are primitive utopias. They have no private property and a carefree life. The director Jamie Uys has made no secret of his yearning for this ideal country. . Because of this, Situ shot prey to share with others but was accused of infringing on private property. The sluggish and hurtful expression in prison impressed the audience.
Of course, all of this only represents the director's personal value orientation.
For the period before the emergence of private ownership and class, mankind has a deep-rooted longing complex. For example, the ancient Greek poet Hesiod divided the development of mankind into four stages: the Golden Age, the Silver Age, the Bronze Age and the Black Iron Age. The more they become darker, the more they become darker. There are many verses in the Indian epic. Chinese society; China also has myths and legends describing how beautiful the ancient times. This complex extends to become: Believe that everything in the past is always better than the present. Out of dissatisfaction with reality and confusion about the future, I only seek comfort by beautifying and remembering the past, but ignoring the "past" that the descendants have not experienced, or are not as beautiful as they thought, or have forgotten everything The "past" is the accumulation of the "present".
In fact, should civilization develop? Is it controlled by us? Where will it go? All these questions cannot and cannot be answered by human beings themselves, so just jokingly push them to God and let him go crazy with us.
