Based on Homer's epic "The Odyssey," the film tells the story of three fugitives who escaped from a prison in the Mississippi wilderness and embarked on a journey of escape for their respective ideals of freedom. The film is a combination of crime and comedy, full of strong 1930s American Southern flavor. The film mainly wants to express a little bit of "metaphysics", it actually wants to highlight the "shape", that is, the feeling and atmosphere of the 1930s America created by the director, such as the Great Depression, blues music, southern scenery , not the story itself.
