As the saying goes: Experience is the only way to know pain. The film does not depict the overall situation and criticize the system, but through the protagonist's unusual life experience, the ruthlessness of the slave owners under the system, the slaves' fear, weakness, indifference, and their real tragic life, and the slave owners to them. The slaves are infused with slavery education and so on.
With numerous awards at various film festivals, this film truly deserves its name!
On the other hand, we have a society with a long history of slavery, and it is really a pity that there are no excellent works on such themes?
