The film tells the story of an Israeli who wanted to immigrate to France but gave up on Joav's fragmented experience in France. Joav came to France naked with nothing but a healthy body. He desperately cursed Israel, the native country shrouded in militarism, and actively wanted to integrate into the long-awaited country of freedom, democracy, and civilization, France. However, in France, he was at a loss like a headless fly, stumbled, and suffered a painful experience that made him finally give up immigration. The extremist friends who worked together were used and ruthlessly killed by the police. They were ruthless like animals. Caroline, the local heroine who saved her, was just lustful and obsessed with her body. The rich second-generation emir was also just Interested in his own experience in Israel, accepted immigrants sanctimoniously but did not really care about immigrants and could not really be friends, had to be a model for an artist at work, suffered physical and mental molestation and rape . The contrast between all this and the French democracy, freedom, and equality that I was preached in the immigration class was so ironic and mocking. He rushed to the symphony performance of the heroine and shouted at her, shouted at the whole band, but the response was only indifferent music and closed doors. So the ideal romantic France does not really exist, at least he is indifferent to immigrants.

    Nadav Rapid's third feature film work can be used as a sequel to the director's previous work "The Teacher": not only the protagonist's name is the same, but also the "escape" of the previous work is brought to the surface, becoming the timeless theme of "European refugees", At the same time, he once again mentioned the "bull" as the subject of the previous work - it is a struggle against fate and a tragedy that cannot be avoided in the end, and it is frozen like a continuation of a family tradition. Only when you have experienced grief can you have experience to be called life, but you don't want to be a plane used by others. From the unsettled subjective lens to the bystander lens, synonyms are used to realize self-recognition after self-escape, a series of judgments of right and wrong solidify and harden the mind, and a series of portraits of flesh and spirit reveal themselves. It is still Rapide's usual powerful ending, the crashing of the door came to an abrupt end, and then the circle formed a non-circular echo. I like the dance scene of the bread in the middle, which is very shocking! I thought the language of the camera lens was relatively poor, but after reading the simple but powerful story, I found that the form and content have been integrated.
