too many heavy issues are packed up for an entertainment film. Firstly, about Emptiness or Voids that many kids are holding in their heart. Many of the youth feel about themselves as cursed or hurt, having been unreasonably unfairly tormented somehow. Consequently, they come to not bear any hope in the present society or the future.
Secondly, the problem of Unavoidable Diseases and Discriminations Any sorts of discriminations are around us, Disease. Race. Gender, to name a few…
Thirdly, about the Relationship between the Human and the Nature. We get a way to survive by ruining the nature forgetting it’s the nature let us survive. The forth issue is the Negative Human Instincts (Karma). Our fighting instincts easily come up on the surface by Hatred. Rage. The fifth. Our Ambivalent Position, the Heart in Awe vs. Pragmatism. While we feel awed to the unearthly events we yet tend to rationalise everything.
