Paulo Coelho's "The Winner Stands Alone" portrays a disdain for the natural order of the world. The plot takes place during a single day at the Cannes Film Festival and sheds light on the superficial lifestyle of the "superclass." This group comprises wealthy, aging individuals who have received botox treatments, are obsessed with fame and luxury, and own private jets, living extravagant lives. Coelho contrasts this group with the "other" class, which includes individuals who earn average wages or less and who live monotonous lives to achieve certain results. Amidst the chaos of the world's biggest film festival, Coelho exposes the flaws of the human soul and demonstrates how materialistic our generation has become.
