Among the many film reviews of this film, many always linked the film to the issue of women's rights in Iran, and overemphasized Iran's religious attributes. In fact, even in the Great Celestial Dynasty, which is said to have no faith, and in those countries with so-called equal rights for men and women, would such a problem not happen? Is everything to blame for Iran's religious and feminist issues? no. This film is about human nature. Human nature is not limited to a certain class, but a universal human instinct. It is human nature to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages and avoid responsibility. The deceased was speechless, and the death or disappearance of Yili was not as important to others as her own safety. As for Yili's reputation, it's even more illusory, and it's not worth putting herself in for it. And Yili's death is the most tragic result. Compared with this, I am more willing to accept her disappearance. Because her life and death is not a top priority for others. And her untimely death is the biggest tragedy of the film.

Master storytellers are good at taking advantage of information asymmetry and misunderstanding, but some parts are easy to be annoying for dramatic effect. The director uses Rashomon's way to tell a suspenseful story on the surface, but in fact he is exploring the society under Iran's religious totalitarianism. , women, etc. Under the strict examination, the director is quite brilliant.
