这是一部典型的美国英雄主义电影。香港回归前夕,国际恐怖组织和香港的造假巨头准备抢在回归前完成一项走私活动――将一批香港生产的内藏微型炸弹的假冒名牌V6牛仔裤偷运到美国。幸好美国中情局及早察觉了恐怖分子的计划,于是先后派出了特工哈利(保罗•索尔维诺 Paul Sorvino 饰)、汤米(罗伯•施奈德 Rob Schneider 饰)和凯伦(莱拉•罗尚 Lela Rochon 饰)前往香港调查。不料道高一尺魔高一丈,中情局的特工来到香港后先后和局里失去联系身陷囫囵。中情局无奈之下,只好请香港警方出面帮忙调查。香港警方在v6牛仔裤香港供货商马库斯(尚格•云顿 Jean-Claude Van Damme 饰)的帮助下,展开了一场惊心动魄的反恐行动。
SynopsisIn the Allegory of the Cave, Plato ponders: what would happen if one of the prisoners managed to free themselves from their chains and escape from the cave? What if that prisoner were Jay, a little 7-year-old boy?Director’s statementWhat lies behind the daily movement of a city? Last winter, we met in Paris and began discussing the Allegory of the Cave, as told in Plato’s Republic. The myth imagines humanity living in chains, facing the back of a cave, and watching shadows move on the walls, thinking it is reality. We both work with images, which certainly can be illusions, but can also become instruments of struggle and liberation of thought. So, from this discussion, we decided to create a short film. We had a few fixed ideas—the cave, the dance, the city bustling around us—and one question: what would happen if we all managed to turn together towards the exit of the cave? Perhaps it is not enough to assert that images are illusions as long as the chains that bind us are real.
