阿昆是個影視學院錄音系的學生，混水摸魚的行徑讓他差點畢不了業，但他在片場混到的本領，早比學校老師還有料。阿昆的愛情學分也快被當了，誰叫他每日打混，沒看見女友還沒出社會就努力為未來卡位。阿昆的錄音師招牌要砸了，誰叫他跟的導演每天滿嘴理想，到頭來只是草包一枚。青春的無限可能招來無盡鳥事，但阿昆還有他的忠實跟班、他剛考到的駕照、與剛買來的二手破吉普車。他相信只要一路開到內蒙古，答案就在草原彼端。
《野馬分鬃》為中國導演魏書鈞的第二部劇情長片，曾以短片《延邊少年》於坎城影展獲獎的他，以本片再訪坎城。故事啟發自魏書鈞的大學生活，輔以對當代社會犀利世故的觀察，與細膩的影像調度。《「大」人物》主演周游生動詮釋主角阿昆不可一世又迷惘的樣態，讓觀眾也跟著這位青年藝術家，走過一段混沌卻又桀驁不馴的青春。
「《野馬分鬃》的故事其實是我混沌大學生活中的一個小章節，略有些灰色或者說蕭條的一段時間，雖然當年身在其中的我還是蠻享受的，但回頭再看卻是另一種感覺。」──魏書鈞
Kun seems to be messing up pretty much everything: his senior year at film school, the job on his friend’s graduation film and the relationship with his girlfriend. But Kun just got his driving license and with it, the cheapest second-hand car he could find: an old wreck of a Jeep Cherokee that might turn out to be the key to his wildest dreams.
“The film shows that although our hero breaks the rules and opposes the status quo, he eventually comes to terms with the fact that change is simply inevitable. Impermanence is indeed the essence of things. The protagonist’s personality and his will to act are imprinted with wildness and resistance: they are in total opposition with the rules imposed by his parents while he grows up. The tension it creates makes things seem funny, almost absurd and at times, sad. This is not to say that this film sheds a negative light on youth. This contradictory rebellion is actually part of a lot of people’s coming-of-age process. I hope that everyone can project themselves into the story and relate to the characters.” – Wei Shujun
