The twenty-one episode television series "Thirteen Cases of Homicide" is adapted from thirteen real homicide cases that occurred in recent years. The main plot and characters are all based on true events. The production team conducted over thirty hours of television interviews with the perpetrators of these thirteen cases, incorporating these interviews as a part of the series, seamlessly integrating them into a complete film narrative. They all claim not to have wanted to kill, yet admit that they did end up killing someone. What was that process? What factors led to these tragedies? They are not inherently evil individuals; rather, they succumbed to the common human weaknesses of selfishness, jealousy, ignorance, narrow-mindedness, and foolishness, which ruined their previously peaceful and happy lives. The people they murdered died in pain, while they remained alive but devoid of joy. We may have faced dilemmas ourselves, or experienced harm and resultant rebellion. The desire to uphold dignity is similar to that of these murderers, perhaps even stronger. The difference lies in the fact that they chose a wrong path. In attempting to escape their dilemmas, they found themselves in an irreversible predicament, taking the lives of those who caused their own plight, thus becoming murderers. As a result, they became the subjects of the story.
