One of the most powerful scenes in the Shawshank Redemption is when Andy (the main character) locks out the prison guards from their office and plays an operetta from Figaro for all the prisoners in the yard to hear.   The prisoners all stop what they're doing and listen to the beautiful music as it reminds them that yes, even though they've committed horrible crimes, they are still human.   When asked later why he did it, Andy answered "To remind myself there are parts of me they (the system or society) can never get to."   You cease to be a human and become an animal when you lose that part of yourself.   That message is about having parts of you that are safe and protected.
