Salvation is generally divided into two levels, personal salvation and social salvation. The so-called social level salvation is what we generally say about justice, repentance or revenge; while personal salvation is the completion and recognition of self-worth, while at the same time the personal realm is sublimated. In this story adapted from real events, social redemption is the pre-determined main thread, and everyone knows the result. Therefore, the director has added the content of personal salvation. Whether it is the conversation of the three himself in the confinement room or the description of his state when he first met Lesar, it can be seen that the male protagonist is a person with firm heart and ideological connotation. . Years of prison life has made him look down on the scorching world and turn to the pursuit of a rich inner spiritual life. Books have become his spiritual motivation and comfort. But the question is, when the personal salvation is completed and the soul is completely free, will the justice requirements for laws and procedures remain the same? If there is no change, how can you talk about soul freedom? Obviously, the director wants new and different changes to the role, so that people can think differently about this familiar role. But after giving too much, it still can't get rid of the fateful ending of the original story structure, which not only makes people wonder, whether the force is too strong.

    Perhaps because it is adapted from the biography of the characters, it is more heavy in life, but less in the blood of the movie.
