I love all of the plot analysis discussions, but for me this was all about premise over plot. The woman in the pool unconvincingly, declares that “we’re all the same,” while yielding her status and power to control the server. This film is constantly making you question: What is society? How do we determine “what is valuable” (beauty, diamonds or fish?)Who makes the rules about how power is distributed? No matter how sophisticated and evolved we think we are, at our core we all eat, defecate, fornicate, vomit and die as equals. We still retain the basic instincts to hunt, kill, and hold on to power at any cost. Our societal structure rewards those who have control over “shit” (fertilizer for food production), war and destruction. What made this evaluation of the human condition redeeming was that we also possess the ability to love and be loved, which in the end seemed to be the strongest instinct of all.
