It's like the first time I saw the movie Trash Humpers (2009), I was thinking to myself: is this a good movie? It isn't. But, the beauty of that movie is that it exists. There's no deep hidden symbolism, it's a bunch of old people in long awkward scenes where they literally hump trash. The lack of a coherent plot adds to the question why they do that. In this world of endless choices and struggling, these people are trash humpers. And that's respectable in a whole aspect.
