简要：Since the Roe v. Wade case, there have been serious disagreements in the United States regarding abortion. In this landmark case, an unmarried pregnant woman was denied an abortion in Texas and subsequently won the right to safe and legal abortion for American women in a judicial challenge. Since then, supporters and opponents have been standing on either side of this issue, verbally insulting each other, and even worse. In the past decade, as the size and power of the religious right have increased, this issue has become more divided and violent. Film producer Tony Kaye has been dedicated to "Fire Lake" in American history X; In the past fifteen years, he has undoubtedly made a film that is an authoritative work on the theme of abortion. This movie is shot in bright black and white, and in fact, it is an endless gray palette. For a theme that is not absolute, right, or wrong, it has a perfect beauty. It gives both sides equal time, covering arguments from two extremes and the core argument of acknowledging that everyone is ultimately "right" or "wrong". Kaye strives to showcase the physiological and psychological reality of abortion through pictures of the termination of pregnancy process and its consequences, in order to clarify what interests are involved; "Fire Lake" - The name of this movie comes from a person's description of those waiting for an abortion in hell - it is a brave movie, even an immortal one. No matter what you believe now, you will definitely have different thoughts when you see it.
