03min 03sec The army personnel, Joshua Rose, were supposed to go to the movies with his wife and child. But unfortunately there was a call from his work and he has to go to his duty. Therefore, for him his duty comes first than any other thing. Here the deontological theory can be applied where duty comes first other than any things. 08min 26sec When Joshua kills the Muslims at the mosque Ahmet which was not legal and at that time his friend Peter save him from the polices as he loves his friend. This shows ethics of care. As he care for his friend he tries to save him from all obstacles. 10min 50sec Here Joshua helps his army mate because they are instructed one should never leave a mate dead or wounded in a battlefield. This is intellectual virtue because they gain this virtue through instruction and practice. 13min 13sec Joshua killed 3 people as they tried to kill the border which was forbidden for them. Here the duty ethics is applied. For Joshua duty comes first. 18min 36sec When Joshua goes to a house with Goran, other army personnel, they see girls lying down dead and raped. This is a part of John Stuart Mill’s utilitarianism, where the intellectual or higher pleasures are more valuable than lower or physical pleasures. Thus here the girl is a victim of lower pleasure. 20min 11sec In this scene Goran cuts the finger of the old woman and takes the ring which means measure of an action is the amount of pleasure it brings by The Cyrenaics. 30min 35sec Here in this scene Goran harasses the girl Vera. He beats her and kicks her in the belly while she was pregnant. This shows lower pleasure which is the physical pleasure. 31min 28sec Joshua kills Goran in order to save Vera and her child. Thus this shows justice. Though Joshua was not supposed to kill Goran but due to just Vera and her child he had to do this. 34min 14sec
Here Vera tries to kill herself. She does this because she was victim of physical harassment. And this is due to sub ego, where a person does an action due to his/her weaknesses. 44min 22sec In this scene the baby cries as she was hungry but there was no nipple for the feeder. But Joshua feed the baby by utilizing the condom as a nipple. He was not suppose to do that but as the baby was crying for milk he had to do that. This shows ethics of care where he cared for the baby though the baby was not his blood. 58min 02sec Joshua tries to take out milk from the goat for feeding the baby though he was inexperienced at this. This shows his goodwill, which means intention is important than the result of the action.
