Mec

At the very beginning of the film, the sword moves down off-screen, and all that can be seen is the decorated hilt of the sword. Eventually, it changes to a sculpture, a cornerstone, a fish and many other objects, depending on who comes across it. At the very end of the film, it is revealed that the sword is stuck in the belly of a dead man. It is an allegory on the ignorance of people who enjoy their life to those who are suffering or dying at the very same instant.
