“Okada’s death completely fits into Sato’s version of Japan, alienated and constantly watched. Women, especially, are followed with camcorders, viewed by security cameras, denied privacy. They float, friendless and unattached, in and out of phone booths, sex clubs, medical research, subways, neon cities.”

死刑犯 A，殺害好友後勒贖。死刑犯陳昱安，砍殺父親 111 刀。死刑犯鄭捷，於捷運上隨機殺人。「死 刑犯」是司法給他們的一個標籤，但這三個人作為 人的身分卻為人漠視，而至親所背負之痛，更從來 無人知曉⋯⋯。曾以紀錄片《起點》、《我無罪，我是鄭性澤》長 期關注司法議題的導演李家驊，這次選擇了三位犯 行各異的死刑犯為主角，有人尚在服刑，有人在獄 中自戕身亡，有人已遭到槍決伏法。在「殺人償命」 的正義大纛前，他們的命運殊途同歸，宛如報廢的 物件，但在律師、死囚家屬面前，標籤之後卻是一 個個血肉之軀。全片以平實的採訪片段與報導影像， 不拘泥於法條本身，而是深刻表達了導演對「人」 的處境的關懷，爬梳現代台灣司法死刑史之餘，也 引出了對現行體制的叩問。
