Have you ever seen a group of Coke bottles under the cliff?

A very distinctive movie, because of its long history, it seems a bit rough now, but when I see this movie now, there may be a stronger sense of conflict than it was at the time. The African natives in the film, the lives they lead, make people in today's bustling cities yearn for endlessly. At the beginning of the story, there is some documentary feeling. A group of African natives live a life of paradise. Everyone was happy at first, but a Coke bottle thrown from the plane changed everything. The big guy started conflict because of this Coke bottle. So the male protagonist decided to go to the end of the world alone and throw the bottle back. A series of funny events happened in the process. But while these stories are funny, they also give us a lot of reflective content. For example, when Lisu was arrested for hunting a sheep, he didn't understand why. Another example is that in the end, the biologist gave Li Su a lot of money, but he threw it away. We have to think, when we work hard all day for that little money, do we also lose a lot of things? And where to find these things. At the end of the film, Li Su walked to the cliff and threw the Coke bottle down. I was thinking, will there be a group of people below who have never seen a Coke bottle?

    I thought it was a new movie, only to know that it was an old movie 30 years ago, and I only had one feeling after watching it. . . People at that time were so lucky to have such a good-looking movie! ! !
