A poster that has almost nothing to do with the plot is the starting point of the whole movie. After the carnival of the whole people, the French riot broke out. Carnival is like the calm sea, riot is the vortex of the deep sea. The vortex is caused by the game of power and human nature, as well as the people's resistance to the drawbacks of capitalism's alternate rule. Freedom and equality have always been the mainstream ideas of developed countries in Europe. However, ironically, there are still racial discrimination and contradictions in European countries. Since the refugee crisis in Europe, France has become a popular refugee destination. For some policy issues left over from history, the French government, which is full of elites, has not issued effective policies in time to suppress the anxiety caused by the dissatisfaction of the living conditions of the majority of the lower-class people of different cultures who cannot receive higher education. Muslims, Gypsies, or ordinary black people...their marks of a third world country that cannot be erased from their skin and blood, but are influenced by the culture of world powers, resulting in a lack of sense of identity and belonging, and their inner feelings for this are growing more and more. The living atmosphere of discrimination between races caused by the worsening social phenomenon of class inequality in France is also very sensitive. The film is to seek this inner balance, to find the cause and answer for the bloody reality in life. The superiority of the film lies in the conflict after two hours. The first two hours are like a perfect microcosm of life, but life goes on forever, and a bad but acceptable ending will not win a better beginning, so With the clip of the director quoting "There are no bad crops in the world, there are no bad people, only bad farmers", there is a strong and stubborn counterattack from the disadvantaged. Although this conflict between children and society is the end of the film, it is also announcing that new groups are showing their existence to the existing social system and various social classes, and this is just a notification. For history, time will not stop, for Europe, France is just a microcosm, so this is just the beginning.
