The cruel and almost perverted revenge sparked by one unfaithful love is bound to be achieved by causing another unfaithful love. Ignoring the fierce, bloody and psychologically distorted struggle for the time being, the theme of the film is clearly clarified in a clearer way. This is the ferocious rebellious attitude of incest in the face of today's powerful ethical and moral system, and a certain interpersonal crisis of modern people revealed by this rigid and despised attitude. Just as Márquez described the fate of incest in his magnum opus of magical realism—people with a pig's tail, modern biological science can also testify, incest can lead to deformities in offspring due to genetic similarities. It is not such a biological reason why incest has become a taboo. Looking back at the history of human beings with the population of the earth today, we can simply make a simple estimate of the population of thousands of years ago or even in ancient times, and then come to an impossible number. such a fact of population growth. This matter proves that incest is not something that has long been banned and rare, but a basic fact of human beings for millions of years. The reason is very simple, it is just a small number of people. In fact, it is difficult to imagine a social organization without incest. Because incest succeeds in weaving the web of in-laws, it perpetuates society without which no society can survive. Human reproduction, from the necessary union of men and women to family building to today's monogamy, is a long evolutionary story. From the initial biological and physical, he slowly moved towards the unique evolutionary path of today's so-called cultural and social. A basic premise for its realization is the gradual increase in the number of people, so that people no longer have to choose the object of union from their in-laws; and at the same time, another more important reason is not the aberration of fertility, but the fact of incest. The disorder created by human relationships makes incest gradually unnecessary and further into a taboo. Therefore, the primitive incest in the early days was almost a natural occurrence; now incest has become a problem again, but it is actually man-made. Sex has become a shameful and even sinful thing, and lust can’t find an outlet. In today’s world full of people, people return to the ancient stone carvings in which there are only direct blood relatives and only a few blood relatives of the opposite sex in disguise. . In this way, incest seems to have gone from "natural coercion" in ancient times to today's "man-made coercion". And this is the most important motive behind the modern incest system that the film barely touches on. Finally, in the lonely In the wilderness and snow, the father realized the detached love with his daughter by choosing to forget. This scene is like an ancient time when human beings were scattered on the earth, but the truth is that this is an extra-legal place that has got rid of ethics and social taboos. Love itself is innocent, even if it is indecent, who has it hurt? In fact, it is meaningless to discuss whether the ending is actually reasonable or not. It is only condensed into a window on the wall of the airtight cultural and moral system constructed by modern human civilization, and a buffer to eliminate the pressure of the system. Belts for some people who can't bear the heavy load to take a breath.

    In fact, what I don’t understand is that (unknowingly) incest is so terrible? Worse than cutting your tongue and poking your eyes? [The idea of ​​imprisoning a prison is interesting; what does it mean to encounter a man who committed suicide by jumping from a building when it was released, and why did the hypnosis run into the snow again; the whole is still very exciting; the details are also very full, there is a scene of a book read by his sister It is a collection of poems by Silvia Plath. 】
