Before watching the movie, I didn't even know exactly where the country Bulgaria was. In the movie, their 80s seem a little richer than our 80s, or at least dressed a bit more fashionably. But still not free. The government sent a huge net, reminding me of the East Factory and West Factory in the Ming Dynasty, which controlled everything about the people, including what was going on in the underground warehouse. And those who are in power will always use "I want you to go to jail" to intimidate others. Under such repression, Sasik's father walked with his wife and children and fled to Germany. If even what is said must be recorded by the state as a material of reactionary language, how can there be any human rights at all? In the past, I thought it was very contrived for the United States to talk about human rights at every turn. In this movie, I support what the man named Chicago said, I just want to go to the United States.
In fact, whether it is Germany or the United States, if you are fortunate enough to be born in a society with human rights and freedom, you must cherish it and let your life shine. And if you were born in Bulgaria at the time, without human rights, you have to continue to pursue your ideals like your grandfather, or escape like that father, anyway, you can’t sit still and blame others, because fate is like a dice in your hand, in your own hands .
