出家 LEAVING HOME

SYNOPSIS

1970年代，年轻的刘悟准备前往金门服兵役。在他家的眷村街道上，他剃掉头发，向有佛教信仰的父亲刘致福告别。刘致福嘱咐他无论遇到什么困难，只要念一声「阿弥陀佛」，就能消除灾难。刘悟离家参军了。不幸的是，一年后他却被敌军杀害而离世，刘致福再也等不到儿子回家……

经过了三十多年，在一个夜晚，刘致福来到了一座城镇的佛寺参拜。他心中仍然怀着失子之痛，并对佛教产生了矛盾的半信半疑。但也许是因为缘分的作用，刘致福在寺院里看到了一个与刘悟相似的年轻和尚释吾心（刘悟的再世轮回）。在难以言喻的情感驱使下，刘致福在吾心法师身上看到了自己儿子的影子，于是前去与他交谈，询问法师为何这么年轻就要出家？

在寺院的大殿里，一位心怀伤痛的老者，在佛像面前，对着年轻僧人提出世间的各种问题……

In the 1970s, the young Wu Liou would go to Kinmen to serve in the military. In front of his house, he bid farewell to his Buddhist father, Jhih-Fu Liou. With his father’s blessing, he “left home” to join the army. Unfortunately, a year later, he was killed by enemy forces. Liu Zhifu would never see his son again…

After more than 30 years, one night, Jhih-Fu Liou came to a Buddhist temple to pay homage. At this time, he saw a young monk Wu-Shin Shih (Wu Liou’s reincarnation) who looks like Wu Liou. Jhih-Fu Liou, driven by the pain of losing his son and conflicted thoughts about Buddhism, went to ask why he “left home” to become a monk at such a young age?

In front of the Buddha statue, An old man questioned the young monk about all kinds of things in the world…
