The fate of women under patriarchy, with a particularly strong Opdys plot. Under the patriarchal system, women are easily bought and sold as things, and after marriage, they are used as a tool for inheriting the lineage. After marriage, Judou faces the torture of an impotent old man. Whether it is from a psychological or physiological point of view, it seems that a hero is needed to save her (this is the result of the director's thinking under the patriarchal system, why can't women save themselves?). One day, she accidentally discovered that the old man's adopted nephew was spying on her, so she wanted to get rid of the old man's torture by relying on her nephew. After the endless incest, Judou seems to be saving himself, especially after the old man is paralyzed, the sex between the two is even more blatant. All this seems to be Judou's revenge against the old man, and he is resisting the old man. The most powerless way to resist under the patriarchy, just after getting rid of the dependence on the old man, turned around and gave himself completely to another man. In the days that followed, it seemed that Judou had a short-lived happy life. But under the shackles of traditional cultural concepts, Judou and nephew are suffering from the traditional etiquette that they both want to break through and silently follow in their hearts. In the end, he killed his father's son and tore off the last straw of Judou. Sons under feudal ethics cannot tolerate the love behavior of "father and mother". Finally, the defense of the patriarchal system is completed by killing the father, and the ruthless oppression of women is carried out. Even if it was his biological mother.
