全球紀錄片類評審團大獎提名
《網路清道夫》這部紀錄片，便將鎂光燈投放在這群網路內容審查員身上，讓大家進一步了解長年待在螢幕背後的他們，是怎麼看待社群審查、如何判斷什麼是不該出現的髒東西，以及這份工作對於他們造成了什麼影響。 這部紀錄片中訪談的現任或前任內容審查員，主要是在菲律賓承接社群平台內容審查工作的外包公司中任職，他們每天要審查超過數萬篇的貼文或照片，必須在短時間內判斷這則貼文的內容是否違反公司的社群守則，並決定這篇內容是否得以刊出，進而被社群媒體上的其他用戶看見。
當代社會中各種技術發展突飛猛進，而基因複製、人工智慧等技術的發明，更深刻影響著我們的生活。「超限社會」專題影展與C-LAB年度展覽共同推出，在本次影展中放映「第四公民」、「網路清道夫」、「人類未來方程式」、「回憶三部曲」、「星際漫步」、「我可能不會生下你」等六部影片。除了「回憶三部曲」、「星際漫步」邀請觀眾進入充滿想像力的宇宙，其餘的影片也邀請觀眾共同思考：對於技術無止盡的追求，將如何影響我們的社會，我們真的已經準備好被技術宰制了嗎？
In a society as warped as ours, who has the right to call themselves "normal"? Six teenage boys, locked inside their New York apartment for years, understand the world through their collection of 5,000 movies. An invisible army of overworked gig workers scrubs your social media feeds clean—out of sight, out of mind. Three adult women, posing as underage girls online, expose over 2,000 suspected child predators. In the U.S., a teen kills another—over a pair of rare, resold Air Jordans. Elsewhere, a group of people worship Satan—not to spread evil, but to resist the suffocating grip of far-right religious politics. So—are these people “normal”? Are they not? And who gets to decide what “normal” even means? Giloo presents 10 documentaries that explore the lives of those often labeled as “abnormal”—but who, in their own ways, might just be the most honest reflections of our times.
In today’s world, is mutual understanding still possible? When authoritarianism resurges, power is concentrated in the hands of corporate giants, and fake news floods every channel, even basic communication between people has become a daunting challenge. The team at Chichi’s Notes believes that the desire to communicate stems from our human longing to understand the unknown. As long as we stay curious and refuse to accept a black-and-white view of the world, meaningful dialogue remains possible. This online film program begins with the theme of fake news and self-media, inviting viewers to reflect on how media shapes public perception. Through the lens of documentary, we question what we take for granted and challenge our assumptions—listening to the confessions of dictators and digital nationalists, exploring the resistance of cults and subcultures, and blurring the line between criminality and creativity. We hope these films offer glimpses into our shared struggles and desires—and open up new spaces for mutual understanding in a world that feels increasingly divided.
The rights protected by the two covenants are vast and far-reaching—so much so that even if we narrated them like a modern-day One Thousand and One Nights, we might still never finish. And yet, there’s so much we want to say, and only so much we can say. From refugees and the principle of non-refoulement, to inclusive education for persons with disabilities; from climate change and the right to adequate food, to Losheng Sanatorium and the fight against forced eviction; from state violence to transitional justice—these layered issues form a dense, interwoven fabric. Even if we only manage to capture fleeting glimpses, we still hope that through each human rights film festival, and through every note we take along the way, we can preserve a few shimmering fragments of truth. Together, we may begin to outline the most vivid and realistic images of human rights. Don’t forget: After watching any film in this program, be sure to complete the survey. It’s not just a way to deepen your understanding of the human rights themes linked to the covenants—it’s also your chance to enter our prize draw!
