Not long ago, a face-changing software became popular, and everyone can freely replace their faces with the faces of the hero and heroine of film and television dramas. In the past, it took at least a few hours to generate a face-changing video, but now it only takes a few seconds, and everyone can become the person they want to be.
However, just as everyone was having a good time, it was revealed that the software had unsafe factors such as data leakage within a few days.
This is reminiscent of the recent drama produced by the BBC.
The series consists of 6 episodes and tells the story of Inspector Rachel, played by Holliday Granger , in a city shrouded by a huge number of surveillance cameras, from the suspected murder of Soldier Sean , played by Callum Turner . , to trust to help him clear his name, but forced to surrender to the power.
From the foreshadowing that Rachel hid the SD card with the copy of Sean's innocence video behind the photo frame at the end, it can be seen that the second season should be just around the corner .
Otherwise, wouldn't it be too chilling for Sean to be imprisoned again?
But is Sean really innocent?
When the Nadia police asked "Does Sean have violent tendencies" when talking to the heroine, Sean's ex-wife Karen hesitated for 3 seconds, and then did not answer the question directly, but said that she knew Sean Very early such unanswered rhetoric;
When Sean talked to her on the phone, he told her that no matter what was reported on TV, please don't believe it, and asked her to tell her daughter that she was innocent. However, Karen answered the question again, telling him that the police had come to ask if she had been beaten. himself, and asked "Sean, what do you want us to do";
And when Sean was first investigated by the police as a suspect, because he didn't believe what he did in the video, he went berserk and hit the police officer. Does he really have no violent tendencies?
Sean's conviction was originally due to video evidence, but in the end, it turned out to be because he was threatened, and the person who threatened him was a state worker. Isn't it absurd?
But as long as friends who have watched the show carefully know that when national interests outweigh personal interests, you sometimes have to make a little sacrifice.
When the video as "Sean's crime evidence" was circulated on the Internet, SO15 realized the seriousness of the problem, because the video was artificially forged. As the face-changing software mentioned at the beginning, Sean in the video was also face-changing others.
If Sean is not arrested, then the public will know that the video is faked, the technology will be known, and even fall into the hands of criminals, and the social order will collapse like a building being severely damaged.
Therefore, SO15 had to use the video of the scene of Sean playing with his daughter in the room, accompanied by the words of a gentle hidden knife, to push Sean to the road of confession.
At first glance, in the face of national interests, it does not seem that Sean's personal freedom is restricted so regrettable, not to mention that Frank from S015 also assured him that he will be acquitted, and the current confinement is only temporary.
But if the national interest is obtained by deliberately killing citizens, is the national interest really correct?
In order to keep the "face swapping technology" unknown to the public, SO15's Frank had to turn what happened in the fake video into a real case.
He found Hannah, the lawyer who was defending Sean, who was being coerced in the video, and killed her.
Maybe it was a mistake, maybe I didn't want Sean to really take a life. The trunk of the body was not the grandfather's car that Sean drove to celebrate his release from prison that day, but his friend's car.
But these things, as Rachel said to Danny - really disgusts me .
Danny is still defending, because Hannah is just a pawn to give up to them.
Hannah, as a human rights lawyer, went to defend Sean in a military court, which is very doubtful. After investigation, SO15 found that she was a lawyer who defended terrorists, and she believed that terrorists also have human rights.
Hannah and her team wanted to use Sean as a hot-button figure to arouse the public's reflection on the human rights of terrorists, and played the image of a victim, but as everyone knew, it was self-defeating and led to death.
Are terrorists' human rights worth fighting for?
Not being convicted without a fair trial is a basic human right in modern society and a symbol of legal civilization. However, if this principle is applied to the fight against terrorism, it will inevitably bring some troubles.
Terrorists are the characters that everyone in today's world shouts at. They ignored laws and regulations, launched riots and made people panic. Since they are enemies of public order and are extremely dangerous, talking about a fair trial or guaranteeing their human rights seems like playing a piano to the bull. However, not all terrorists were caught at the scene of the explosion, and most of them could only be regarded as "suspected terrorists". Throwing them into prison without trial also seems to violate basic "human rights"?
The whole drama gives people a feeling of being both righteous and evil. When you think that he is a real character, the dark side of his body is gradually revealed with the deepening of the plot, and when a person whose behavior is obviously contrary to common sense appears in the field of vision At the same time, the screenwriter will tell you again that he may be right.
In this show, no one is innocent.
Soldiers who went to war in the country may have PTSD and killed Taliban lunatics who had surrendered; lawyers who advocated justice for human rights are clearing many blacks and Muslims suspected of planning terrorist attacks; the female detective kept saying She does not want to be a woman like her mother who doesn't know her father has a private life outside, but she is doing the same thing as her father; in order to solve the case quickly, the team members do not hesitate to violate the regulations and push fake videos to the Internet; SO15 team members can kill citizens for the sake of the country ......
Perhaps only Sean's daughter, Jesse, is the purest person. After all, people are inherently good at the beginning. She has not yet been bleached into a mess by the dye vats of this world.
The success of "Truth Capture" is that none of us can stand on the moral high ground to criticize anyone, judge their actions right or wrong, because no one can accurately judge "you are wrong" or "you are right" ".
As mentioned in the play, a word "rope guilt and correction", constant correction is one of the laws that our world can operate. The public lives in the world, and the end point to be followed needs to be obtained by correcting step by step in the process. Only in this way can the world run.
Every imperfect person serves the rules of the world. Even if you know that the world is not perfect, it is the imperfection of the world that requires everyone to be responsible for their own actions.
The imaginative semi-open ending is more thought-provoking than the established ending in which the protagonist is wronged and finally the truth is revealed. If the play is arranged like the latter, although the quality is still undiminished, it will be less thoughtful.
In the second season, let's wait and see how Rachel will fight wits and courage.
