異女

　　A narcissistic performer's world crumbles when he mysteriously loses his talent right before the biggest opportunity of his career.

　　Can I Get a Witness? tells the story of a mother and daughter in a near-future world where huge sacrifices are made to maintain life on Earth.　　With its resources swallowed by e-waste and overpopulation, the world is experiencing an anthropogenic collapse. To manage, technological advances are shunned. Nobody has electricity and only people with exceptions are permitted cars. Most importantly, there is also a collective agreement that nobody is allowed to live beyond the age of 50.　　Oh’s Ellie lives with her teenage daughter Kiah (Keira Jang), who is starting her first day as a Documenter, an important role in this new world order. She uses her artistic gifts — beautifully conjured in animations — to draw the dying ceremonies, since printing and photography have been banned.　　Kiah is paired with Daniel (Joel Oulette), the young man who performs the contractual elements of each person’s end-of-life ceremony. He matter-of-factly provides the packages a person can choose, sets them up when the time comes, and performs the burials. But his new coworker is having a hard time handling the emotional impacts of the job.

　　一位單親母親帶著兩個女兒在鄉(xiāng)下生活數(shù)年后重返臺北，在熱鬧的夜市擺起小吃攤。面對新環(huán)境，三人以各自的方式努力適應，既要維持生計又要守護家庭完整。當傳統(tǒng)觀念根深蒂固的外祖父禁止左撇子小孫女使用"惡魔之手"后，這個三代同堂家庭深埋的秘密開始逐漸浮出水面。

　　在一個家族傳承的塔格特鐵路公司，現(xiàn)任總裁為家族長子詹姆斯·塔格特，副總裁是達格妮·塔格特，兄妹倆為挽救公司岌岌可危的營運，想法與方法可說是南轅北轍，一位只是口頭囔囔一些沒有經過詳細評估的墨西哥——圣賽巴斯蒂安支線的投資，卻沒有提出一絲一毫的規(guī)劃與執(zhí)行方案，常常以見不得別人成功的酸葡萄心態(tài)看待事情與詆毀他人；另一位是以“我是像一個餓瘋了一樣，去找任何一個能把事情做好的人！”為挽救塔格特鐵路公司，與愛迪·威勒斯孜孜矻矻、焚膏繼晷的努力工作，為順利完成里約諾特的鐵路支線，找上里爾登鋼鐵的漢克·里爾登合作，采用里爾登剛發(fā)明的新合金當鐵軌，沒想到成功營造出里約諾特的鐵路支線，卻是另一個不幸的開端。　　幕后制作　　《阿特拉斯聳聳肩》是上世紀美國著名哲學家、小說家安·蘭德的代表巨著，這位俄裔美籍小說家推崇理性，認為人的最高美德便是理性。她不顧傳統(tǒng)輿論的偏見，力倡個人主義，認為不能使個人利益得到最大伸張的社會，就不是理想社會。她的客觀主義哲學自上世紀50年代起便風靡美國校園，影響了幾代美國人，她本人也成為美國青年崇拜的偶像?！　　栋⑻乩孤柭柤纭肥撬钪囊槐拘≌f，曾在美國社會產生巨大影響。書中宣揚金錢至上的思想，探討了理性利己主義的道德性。1957年剛剛出版曾遭遇社會惡評，但卻異常暢銷，在美國的銷售量僅次于《圣經》，并影響了當時社會的很多知識分子，甚至成為美國學生必讀的課外書籍。
