Feng Junhao has always thought about social class. This film is a typical depiction of various types of people in the lower classes of society. For that man, what he needs is money, money can change everything about him, money can make him live with dignity, money can make him kind, and money can make him pursue what he pursued when he had no money before. Something feels dismissive. For that girl, what she needs is a fairy tale. In this fairy tale, she has become a hero to others. She must be kind and can be seen and recognized by others. She wants the world to see her as a hero. The image of an independent heroine, she wants the world to see her. For that security guard, he has no lofty ambitions, just like a parasite, eating the corpses of other people's dead dogs. For that fool, he has completely given up his dignity as a human being. He sleeps in the rubbish heap and eats whatever he sees, but he still has a kind heart in his heart, but he has no money to turn him into an animal. For the fat store owner, she was content with the material things in her little world, and her body image became a symbol of the accumulation of material desires. But she still cherishes friendship and loves the heroine like her sister.
And the woman begging on the train, showing the sad but ridiculous defense of dignity of the people at the bottom.
There are many metaphors throughout the film. For example, a child from a rich family can go on a hunger strike for a pet dog yesterday, but tomorrow she can buy a new dog. That's the difference between having money and having no money.
I like the part about telling ghost stories in the basement the most. The photography arrangement is really good. In the storytelling shot, half of the security guard with a gloomy face and half of the dark basement with ravines and gullies, it seems that at any time, a boiler gold covered in carrion will slowly walk out from one of the corridors.
