"Oh, you are lost, girl. Your parents died heroes"
"I want to believe that, but maybe you can be a hero and still be wrong"
Who would have thought a tale about fantastical sea creatures and a group of hunters would teach us one of the most practical lessons of our lifetime. The subtext willfully delineates the importance of peace and harmony and prioritizes the need for Love & Compassion amidst a world full of hatred and animosity. And on top of all, the narrative here inspires us to have a broader perspective on humanity and life itself!
From a very young age, we've been taught to hate, to discriminate; more often than not, we humans are advised to care only for our kind and let the rest suffer the consequences of our dreadful judgments. And this so-called naivety or selfishness, whatever you may name it, has been persistently misused by the people up in higher ranks! Just to please their selfish deeds, to appease their appetites for more authority and leverage. They had done everything they could to divide, to misguide.
Not only the Monarchies in distant history are responsible, but it's quite the same for the modern-day democratic systems as well. Their strategies may have transitioned to suit their newer agendas, yet those people in power continue to take advantage of common residents to satisfy their longings. "The Sea Beast" takes a firm stand against that very notion! The film in its own right may not be an embodiment of perfection but the underneath statement holds much greater significance and one that should not at any cost be disregarded.
