SUMMARY: The movie 'The Orchid Thief' highlights the importance of doing things for others without expecting anything in return. Debt is not always monetary, it can be emotional, and expecting something in return for a favor is a sophisticated way of enslaving someone. Christ never expected anything in return and showed unconditional love. Let us also show unconditional love and not judge others by their actions, but rather understand the reasons behind them.

The movie 'The Orchid Thief', starred by Nicolas Cage, is an example of how a man can dialogue with himself by distorting the reality he is living, but there is a part of the film that is worth all the rest and it is where a twin says something like this to the other:


-The day you confessed your love to…, I was listening and when you walked away I saw how she made fun of you with other young people, it's good that you didn't hear it, because I felt it as if it were for me.
