简介： Witness protection is often glamorised as keeping innocent witnesses safe from harm but the truth is darker, murkier, and far more complex. Many protected people are themselves criminals. It’s a life of moral compromise. It also involves maximum secrecy, false identities, and a world where you can’t trust your own colleagues. Based on the first-hand experiences of a long serving witness protection officer, Protection is about what happens when the system breaks down. It’s about a police officer, Detective Inspector Liz Nyles (Siobhan Finneran), who finds herself at the heart of such a breach; personally compromised by an affair with a colleague, but determined to fight back, and uncover the true source of corruption within her unit. To redeem herself, the reputation of her lover, and to keep her witnesses safe. Even if they don’t always deserve it. Navigating the morally-grey, clandestine world of witness protection, Liz’s mission to find the truth will take her deep into the heart of the criminal underbelly and beyond as she becomes more and more torn between caring for her family, her loyalty to her lover and her duty as a police officer. This is the story of a smart, tough cop, out of her depth in a world where nothing is as it seems. With a deft narrative that engages from the outset, Kris Mrksa creates suspenseful twists and with every hairpin turn perfectly navigates the story to ensure the audience won’t know who to believe and who is telling the truth.
演技，觉得都还好，至少总体不影响观看。相比希欧布罕·芬内朗纳丁·马歇尔凯瑟琳·凯丽巴里·沃德钱尼尔·库勒大卫·海曼妮可拉·伯利Akiya Henry 表演来说，导演的一些细节很有意思，也不知道导演怎么想的，但是作为观众，我看到了导演的用心。也不知道和导演想的是不是一样，总之我认为这部片子很不错，还有很多镜头切换的地方也很好，就不一一赘述了。导演很用心，很让人满意，唯一一点瑕疵我认为是剧本有些粗糙，但也不排除是因为时间限制等特殊原因。
