The film aims to draw a contrast between the haves and have-nots by juxtaposing two scenes against each other. First, we are presented with a dinner party. The setting communicates some of the many ways in which a person’s location in society insulated them against the ravages of the pandemic. While one is a scene of abundance, the other is a suggestion of another reality where sustenance and nourishment are extremely scarce. <br><br> A character on the table remains more disconcerted than the others at the awareness of this fact. Our characters are not devoid of a conscience, or at least some sense of moral responsibility, and yet, they remain notably protected in their lives. It is only when the film presents the second scene, devoid of any dialogue, that the juxtaposition is complete. If the premise is explored further in more detail in future works, it would surely serve to enhance the storytelling established in the current narrative.
