    Cowardly people, rebellious sheeps.
    Stories and metaphors that can be applied to every social environment, but this one is in a Chinese society. Those sheep, when they are not in danger, can let you cut their wool gently. When threatened, they resist. It's still a good type of movie. PS: the beginning may be the end, which makes me feel deeply afraid.
