Director Feng Junhao’s past works often have relatively vague moral values and character characteristics, but this time, the character and the strength of confrontation in the movie are more distinct. The plot setting of the whole work is relatively simple, rescue, failure, rescue again, desperate, rescue. No complicated narrative techniques are used. Many pictures are reminiscent of Hayao Miyazaki's "My Neighbor Totoro". In "My Neighbor Totoro", the entire plot design is based on a life-like situation, the girl's jungle adventure, planting saplings, and visiting her mother. Call the truth with innocence. But "Yuzi" is different, the whole plot of Yuzi is not about taking risks, but actually about trading. Grandfather used money to raise and exchange Yuzi, animal organizations exchanged Yuzi's small sacrifices for public opinion, and in the end Miko also exchanged golden pigs for Yuzi. Miko led Yuzi to leave the slaughterhouse and looked back at Yuzi when she returned to her hometown. There was something more complicated in her eyes. In this round of transactions, there are also reflections and questions about the adult world.
