The narrative engages with several concerns that, on the surface, are about the struggles of a smoker in quarantine. However, an interesting turn of events makes it clear that the film is about much more.
In its concise manner, it offers a comment on the importance of someone's financial and professional background in determining their location in society. It further goes to show how the existence of a person is reduced to that of a mere rat, notably captured in its brevity. The film, however, loses crucial points in the sound department and could have benefited from some fine-tuning of the same.
