Synopsis: 
Pickle is a night security guard at a bronze statue factory, who also plays in a funeral band when time allows. His best friend Belly Button works as a recycling collector during the day and their biggest pleasure in life is flicking through the porn magazines Belly Button collected in the small hours in the security room. One day when the TV is broken, their lives are change forever. The story involves gods, the middle-aged men’s sexual desire and the conversation between ghosts and humans. Maybe the audience will find it preposterous, but isn’t life itself a farce? The most anticipated Taiwanese film of the year is an extension of Huang Hsin-Yao's 2014 award-winning short, The Great Buddha.

2017 Golden Horse Awards: Best New Director, Best Adapted Screenplay, Best Cinematography, Best Original Film Score and Best Original Film Song

一個佛像工廠老闆（戴立忍 飾）、一個佛像工廠警衛（莊益增 飾）、一個以拾荒維生的潦倒男人（陳竹昇 飾），在一個因電視壞掉而從老闆的行車紀錄器中單純享受情色廣播劇的平凡晚上，莫名被捲入一個政商勾結、情慾橫流、驚天動地的超完美謀殺計劃。大佛理所當然護國佑民，但有時 大佛也會揀人來祝福，又或者大佛其實根本只是一尊佛像而已？
