Birdshot is a scenic film that juxtaposes the beauty of life with harsh reality or corruption and
violence. It may also seem as what had happen to the farmers of the Hacienda de Luisita
massacre. Police corruption was on its peak on the past as people were afraid to get killed or get
a death threat. People fighting for their rights and ownership often end up dead or missing just
because some powerful people have the power over the police and over them to take everything
from them. The society always wants fairness and equality, but always fail to attain it. Corrupt
officials and rich individuals will always get what they want on the past, while the weak and the
poor will always be abused, ignored and taken for granted.
