Bloody and impactful

This film has very direct blood and violence but it is never used in a distasteful way. The filmmakers have done a good job with the graphic scenes that also have an emotional impact. Compared to Schindler's List, this film has a more hopeful tone but it has the same amount of tension. There are so many characters shocked by the constant brutality of their situation but they decide to take action instead of resigning themselves. This film is gripping from beginning to end, with incredible tension and stakes.

a strong desire for life and freedom

It's called washing white, but it's actually killing all. The body incinerator starts day and night.It is torture to the soul to encourage death row prisoners to carry a mat.To run into the jungle under a hail of bullets is a strong desire for life and freedom.To salute those who fight for freedom.
