Iranian-American director Ramin Bahrani's works include "The Man Pushing the Trolley," "The Sky of the Latin Boy," and "Living Justice," which has been praised for depicting the struggles of the lower classes of society, and his latest film, "White Tiger," takes the story off the U.S. for the first time, showing amazing compassion to the people at the bottom of Indian society. Based on the Booker Prize-winning novel by Indian writer Aravind Adiga (who and director Ramin Baharani were close friends at Columbia University), White Tiger focuses on the division and disparity between the rich and the poor in modern India, which eventually evolves into a bloody revenge against the rich.
At the beginning of the film, Balram (Indian singer-songwriter Adash gullaf Adarsh Gourav starred for the first time) The entrepreneur looks back on his life experience and narrates how he went from a lowly slave to a businessman sitting on power and wealth. He was born in a poor village in India, where his grandmother, who was in charge of the household, took him out of school to start working for the family's teahouse, and soon after his father died of pneumonia and his brother was forced to marry a wife at his grandmother's arrangement. Despite the hardships and hardships of life, Balram is convinced that he is the white tiger that the school teacher called it, a rare species that has been rare for generations, and the only way to escape the life of the lower class is to climb up.
Unlike most of the poor, who tend to accept their fate and be devoured by the wealthy (Balram's narrator describes them as chickens being raised in a chicken coop waiting to be slaughtered), Balram actively fought to work for the local landowner Storm, enlisting the private chauffeur of the landlord's youngest son, Ashok.
Are the rich people kind because they sit on wealth? Or are they born with both money and good hearts? This is one of the problems with Bong Joon-ho's phenomenal master's work Parasite. Unlike his father and brother, Balram's new boss, Ashok, is a young man who has just returned from school in the United States and his Indian-American wife, Pinky, who is more open-minded in values and treats Balram more like a friend than a subordinate. Still, much of the pride and generosity of the couple comes from their innate privilege and privilege, admiring Balram's upbringing in a "real Indian environment" and seeing his lifestyle as a highly exotic stereotype.
On Pinky's birthday night, she killed a girl crossing the street in a drunken car, a fatal accident that caused the relationship between the three to take a sharp turn for the worse, and the powerful family asked Balram to sign a confession and admit that he was the driver who killed the girl. Balram, who feels betrayed, ignites the flames of anger in his heart, and the film embarks on an extremely dark and dangerous journey.
