This film forms a blend of realism depicting the opposition between the proletariat and the capitalist class, along with an allegory of divine power rewarding good and punishing evil. It has two main characteristics: the first is a sense of nostalgia. Set against the backdrop of 1930s Sweden, the emotions stemming from the Great Depression construct the film's tone. The second is its political color. For decades, people's ignorance, numbness, and evasion have gathered energy for the emergence of a strong power, the result of which has been the frenzied strangulation of the long-held rights of freedom and equality. The film ultimately introduces religion as a means of salvation for humanity, rich in meaning and thought-provoking.
