Top Comments of this video!! :3
Having been homeless, jobless, hopeless, & essentially "at the bottom" i can tell you from personal experience that this movie accurately depicts common human nature. Homeless/Poor people can be very very ruthless, uncaring, selfish, inconsiderate, thieving, dangerous, etc. It's not just about rich or poor. I have met good & very bad people on BOTH ends of the money/social Spectrum.

âThe messageâ is plainly explained by the wise man as not being for the administration but for the workers at level 0. They initially want to send a dish back up but realize that sending a starving child for those workers to see is a far stronger message. The hope being that the workers will quit, perhaps word will even get out of whatâs happening inside, and the whole thing will stop.
Throughout the movie the workers up top presumably see the food gone on the platform when it returns but have no idea how many are starving or who is down below. Maybe theyâre told itâs criminals, maybe they donât know people are dying. As the wise man says the administration has no conscience but the workers on level 0 may. So seeing a starving child come back up could indeed start this revolution theyâre seeking to end the platform.

I also absolutely love the wordplay in this scene, Trimagasi tells Goreng that he[2:58] shouldn't talk to the people down below cuz they're below. And that he mustn't talk to the people above because they wouldn't listen.

First line in the movie:
"There are three different kinds of people: those on top, those on bottom, and those that fall."
I liked how the whole movie centered around getting to the one that rises. It's almost symbolic that it was a child, sometimes it seems like that's how it is in life with passing generations.
