As a participant in the war, as a participant in the war, the trauma and suffering experienced by ordinary people is unimaginable by others. As a work reflecting on war, "Homeland Security" takes the sequelae of war as the starting point and focuses its perspective on Brody, who has experienced war and captured torture, and reflects the trauma that war has caused to a person's soul through the suffering and torture he has experienced.
The biggest feature of this drama is that, in addition to the normal chronological narrative, Brody's memories flash back, looking directly at the whole process of being imprisoned, tortured, and converted to Allah from another side. Brody has sufficient motivation for every change in his heart, and his own calmness and strategy have also given him the basic elements that are the key to the plot.
As a captured soldier, after years of unpredictable life and death, what he saw was a dilapidated family. His wife had a close relationship with his brother, his daughter was rebellious, and his son seemed very strange to himself. He needed time to repair a divided family. .
National leaders tried to make him a "national hero", induced him to enter politics, and created various opportunities for him to make public speeches, using him as a bargaining chip in the election. The CIA hopes that he can cooperate with the authorities to identify the suspect, participate in the interrogation process if necessary, and squeeze his residual value bit by bit.
There is always a female agent who stubbornly believes that he has defected and is a potential threat. So he was monitored, treated as an "alien" by other people, and assimilated by "enemy".
And according to Brody’s own words, during the time he was imprisoned, there was no Bible, and God seemed to have abandoned him. Everyone he came into contact with was a devout Muslim who lived in such an environment for several years. You It is impossible to erase what you see and hear every day. During that time, you always find a spiritual sustenance.
How much is the difference between God and Allah at such a moment? The mental torment he has experienced is far better than the physical torture; although he has been trying to conceal the impact of the environment, he can't erase the imprint caused by that period of time. Every morning, he would enter the garage quietly and pray to Allah; that period of imprisonment was imprinted in his heart forever.
So I thought of a fragment of "24": A Turkish family came to the United States with the purpose of becoming a "lurker" and waiting for opportunities to create terrorist incidents; the little boy in the family has grown up in the United States for many years, and the American brand on his body has made him identify with it. this country. When his father tried to complete the task assigned by the "organization", he made the opposite choice, and eventually he shot and killed his father.
After ten years of fighting terrorism, the personal experience of the person is gradually melted by the new surroundings. When he returns, he will inevitably leave a mark of the past on his body. The aftereffects of the war are far more terrible than the war itself.
