The 'Platform'
Viewer Discretion is advised when watching this film: Cannibalism, Gory, violence.
This movie is about surviving, It's dark, vicious, competitive. Just like squid game, a clear display of rank and hierarchy throughout the 333 floors indicate how treacherous and scary people can be, this movie can reflect how people in reality can behave, if put in a situation like this.
spoiler alert:
The symbolism of protecting the desert and the kid creatively emphasises the power of the innocent mind, because even a psychopath feels for a kid. The film imprints all types of questions into our minds, it makes one question their choices, their relationships and the reality around them.
