It's a metaphor for abortion and how important it is sometimes. That's my read.

I don't know is, that a lame take on the movie? It wasn't an amazing movie, but it had a very interesting message I thought.

Yea maybe. I hadn't picked up that it was intended as a massively direct metaphor, though it's definitely there. But it was definitely touching on the whole cosmic scale cycle of life thing and how there can be hard realities you gotta sometimes face.

I mean, that's what I took away as well.

But.... Isn't that also abortion in general?

Oh for sure.
