2015台北電影節｜菜鳥 Maverick

《菜鳥》 Maverick

鄭文堂 CHENG Wen-Tung

台灣 Taiwan | 2015 | DCP | Colour | 114 min

正義及理想消磨殆盡要花上多久的時間？新報到的菜鳥警員初出任務就撞上潛規則，人碰不了，案子動不得，還被派去檔案室冷凍。他一如以往堅持是非黑白，傾全力查舊案，然而竭盡心力後，他真能找到事情的真相，還是另一個被塵封的良心？台北電影獎最佳導演鄭文堂繼《眼淚》後，再創台灣影壇不容忽視之聲，宥勝詮釋菜鳥的衝動氣盛，對比莊凱勛的老成世故，戲劇張力十足。

Soon after a young police officer reports for duty, he is confronted with the unspoken rules. There are people who cannot be questioned and cases that cannot be further investigated. Although he has been sidelined, he refuses to give up the old case. However, having spent so much time and effort, will he find out the truth or some long forgotten conscience? On the same day, in the same accident, Wei loses his pregnant wife and Ming her fiancé. In Buddhism, one is given 100 days to mourn for the dead. Like two mice lost in a labyrinth, Wei runs around in circles while Ming calmly creeps down a determined path. But the pain and sorrow linger on. With the 100th day approaching, they wonder if they’ll ever be able to say goodbye.
