One of the film's main themes is rebirth. Glass is seen throughout the film symbolically be reborn as a "new person". For example: Fitzgerald callously buried Glass in a somewhat shallow grave. While buried throughout the night and on the cusp of death due to his severe injuries from the bear attack, Glass has a soothing dream about his wife. This gives him encouragement to live. A while afterward, Glass gathered all of his strength and willpower to crawl out of the grave. Thus, he begins his journey through the wilderness.After Glass became seriously ill, Hikuc treated his wounds with his medicinal methods and placed him in a hut to help him heal and to protect him from the snowstorm. During this sequence, the voice of a Pawnee woman, which is believed to be Glass' wife, was reciting a poem about life and how one has to keep breathing. While asleep in the hut, he dreams about seeing and hugging his son while in the dilapidated church. This serves as a little bit of closure for Glass. The next morning, Glass emerges from the hut feeling physically better and rejuvenated.In order to protect himself from the storm and potentially threatening individuals and wild animals, Glass cuts open Hikuc's deceased horse, removes the organs, removes his own clothing, and sleeps inside. The next morning, he cracks open the carcass and gets out. Him being nude, sleeping inside the horse's body, and getting out of it is akin to a baby being born. After he gets out of the horse's body, he appears as if he's looking and observing the environment for the first time in his life.
