"The Coligny Case" is a 2020 German suspense drama film, also known as "The Sinner's Indictment", directed by Marco Kreuzpintner, actors Elias Mubarek, Ya Starring Alexandra Maria Lana and Manfred Zapaca, the plot tells the story of the 85-year-old entrepreneur Maier who was shot in the head by the murderer Colinny in a luxury hotel in Berlin, although he confessed to the crime , but remained tight-lipped about the details, making the case a stalemate. At the same time, the rookie lawyer Casper who took on the case also found out that the deceased was an elder who loved him dearly in the process of growing up, and the great opportunity to become famous instantly turned into a nightmare. "The Colinny Case" focuses on the story of Casper, the protagonist who had just obtained his lawyer's license three months ago and has a considerable degree of enthusiasm and ideals. On the case, not only did the deceased as the president of the consortium bring the case to the attention of the general public and the media, but the prisoner Colinney never revealed the incident, details and motives of the incident to the police and himself after surrendering, but instead pursued his death. With so many doubts displayed, "The Colinny Case" has a strong sense of unknown suspense just from the background of the story. Not only that, in the film "Colinney Case" Casper, as a public lawyer, in addition to having to be responsible for the cases he has promised to take over, the deceased has no blood relationship with Casper for many years, but the relationship between father and son. , which had a major impact on his life, the kindness that enabled him to graduate from college and become a lawyer, and also made Casper fall into whether he, as a responsible young lawyer, should be killed by execution-style shooting. The dilemma of Maier's Coligny defense makes "The Coligny Case" a depiction of the character's heart in the suspenseful atmosphere of the whole film. On the whole, the reflection on the ability of "The Coligny Case" to extend a murder involving a stain of German history to the standard of judicial judgment is really amazing. The movie can't help but remind me of the recent indiscriminate killings in Taiwan. Some people criticize the Dinosaur Judge who gave the verdict, while others accuse these people of being legal illiterates who only judge right from wrong based on their own values. Not enough above the law? How can we remember these historical lessons and develop better legal norms and institutions so that the human rights of all people can be properly cared for and protected? I think that's exactly what the whole movie hopes to convey.
