Part 2/9:
The film opens with children playing harmoniously around a pyramid structure, one of whom is a survivor from the first movie, Goreng. Their innocence starkly contrasts with the brutal behavior exhibited by the characters within the depths of the platform, prompting a reflection on how environment shapes human behavior.
As we trace the journey of new characters Perempuan and Zamiatin, we learn the rules governing the platform: each person can only consume what they chose during their interview or else face violence from above. This initiates a resemblance to the first film, where the dynamics of power and survival becomes a recurring theme.
