During dinner, "the system" feeds the few who consume all the resources while the rest survive on scraps. The film was inspired by the economic recession affecting numerous South European countries such as Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal.
“If you ask me what I hope people will take away from my film I believe is the provoking realization that every system so far created by man inevitably ends with a few eating well, while the rest struggle to survive.“
"He who pays the bills makes the rules." Not a bad mantra for a household with kids. But it becomes oppression when extrapolated to larger scales: employment and government, where the "haves" only have by keeping the "have nots" from having.
