Children of Men has many themes, and each scene is filled with deep meanings.
Political themes are important to the plot as they ignite the rest. There are political references throughout the movie. Propaganda is used to spread chaos and unnecessary violence around the characters.
The myths about infertility are almost like blindfolds that prevent others from recognizing the truth. It is the cause of many terrorist attacks and rejections. The government has rejected immigrants who could have helped solve the global crisis. The fishes try to aid immigrants as well as find a cure to infertility. They are led by julian. The fishes, however, do not appear to be as strong as they could have been to fight against government. Theo suggested in the film that both political forces can restore the last hope for humanity.
Chaos and hopelessness in a world. In the world of meaningless living, hope is a common thing. People can find hope in more desperate situations. Hope is not needed if everything is going well. Not all hope is realized and not every person who grasps on to it will see a good outcome. Jasper was right when he said that change brings hope. Theo’s sacrifice is an example of what happens when you hold your faith. Theo has to go through many trials before he is able to see his hope.
It is nothing special to see Theo Faron’s mind go from hopelessness and total despair to a small glimmer of hope. Many people have given up on their dreams, lost their motivation to achieve what they are passionate about. Theo gave up on his duty when he lost son. He lost hope. In the end, it is the loss of hope or purpose that kills people. It’s difficult to move on without a direction, or should I call it a shift in perspective. It’s hard to escape without a change of perspective. Julian’s return in the life of theo shifts his attention. Theo’s inner light and purpose was re-lit when kee entered his life.
The film is a mixture of many things, including character development and political movements. The government rejects immigrants and uses drugs. The fishes represent a force against the evils of the state, but they are already a rebellious group without the baby. It would have been a non-issue if Theo hadn’t acted. The fishes may be great people, with a fighting heart. But people like Luke and Patrick are terrorists. And they are the leaders of their group. Thug member, thug leader. Here are the fishes. What about the Government?
The government does not have an honest side. They seem to be trying to control the populace. A good example is when diego was portrayed as a little baby. I believe that this is done because the baby represents purity and naivety. In reality, however, the man may not be as pure. As well, the government has been killing immigrants. That is an act of sin. There is no future human generation left. This action shows that the decision is not being made for humanity’s best interests, but rather by those who hold the power. Some decisions can be right, while others can be destructive. If the government is welcoming to immigrants, it will help cure infertility because people will ask the government directly for assistance. People would return home after the crisis and resume their normal lives.
