在第91届奥斯卡最佳纪录长片奖的角逐上，导演塔拉尔·德尔基的作品《恶魔的育成》惜败给了《徒手攀岩》。然而在主题和制作难度上，《恶魔的育成》可以说毫不逊色，甚至让人叹为观止。在首部长片《重返霍姆斯》后，塔拉尔在《恶魔的育成》中继续将镜头对准了自己的故乡叙利亚。塔拉尔坦言，他想通过这部影片来深入叙利亚战争背后人的心理状态——一个人是怎么变成恐怖分子和战场上的恶魔的？是什么让简单的个人变得如此激进，情愿按照伊斯兰国恐怖分子的异教邪说牺牲自己的生命？成为长片导演前，塔拉尔曾担任过多部影片和电视片的副导演以及CNN电视台的摄影师。在本片中，他保持了这种对战争和人性本质的追问。。St. Jude Square is a neighborhood living in fear and despair. The dueling gangs of local kingpins Dash and Antuan terrorize the streets and the citizens live without a shred of hope... until mysterious stranger Ryan Hong (Cung Le) arrives in town. He begins to play one gang against the other using his unparalleled martial arts skills, and by calling on the teachings of his brilliant mentor Tiano (Jean-Claude Van Damme) to find the strength to battle back. However, just as he begins to bring the community under control, Hong is confronted by Mr. V, the town's ruthless and corrupt police chief. At first Mr. V is impressed by Hong's skill, but soon sees Hong as a threat to his regime, and the two warriors are locked in a head-to-head battle, pitting the fear and corruption of Mr. V's regime versus the new beginning Hong represents for the people of St. Jude Square.。
