After being rescued from drifting at sea, the protagonist told the real situation, which is the second story: when the shipwreck happened, four people got on the lifeboat, Pi, Mom, and the cook. ,sailor. According to Pie's description, the cook killed the sailor and ate him, the cook also killed Pie's mother and threw it into the sea to be eaten by a shark, and Pie killed the cook and ate the cook. But according to the interpretation of the whole film, the most real drifting at sea is that the chef did not throw Pai's mother's body into the sea, but after Pai killed the chef, facing the three corpses on the ship, he finally had to eat the sailor and the chef, so that he later ate the chef. mother.
