Établir des priorités :
A very dark film about how even if life doesn't amuse a person, even if they want more and want to fulfill their dreams, it might not necessarily be what they achieve because sometimes there are obstacles in the way that they don't understand and don't see. Here, it's not so much about obstacles as it is about the darkness that permeates human society, represented by individuals and groups. The black-and-white picture helps a lot.
