The beginning of the film uses scenes of animal fights in nature and some violent acts by humans. It seems to show us what kind of world this is, where the strong eat the weak, violence and power are everywhere. Experiments have also confirmed this well. Never underestimate the ugliness of human nature. In an "orderly" society, people's bestiality will be hidden, and in this experiment, people will undoubtedly reveal their bestiality.
On one side are people who play prisoners, and on the other are people who play guards in the prison. When the guards have the public power of "maintaining order" and "discretionary treatment", in order to show their authority, they are constantly testing the bottom line of the rules, and the red light has never been turned on, so they are more presumptuous, and their personal desires are covered by public power. constant expansion. By controlling and humiliating others, their hearts gain unprecedented pleasure and their vanity is greatly satisfied. So we see greed, violence, and power, which may be hidden in the "outside world" of that order, fully revealed in the prison.
