【 不需要王子──我就是女巫!1990s 以降的女性私電影 】 紀錄片影展走到第十三年,每年的這個時候我總坐在轉運站外,抱著影展手冊暗自思忖,苦惱於片單的選擇,而看電影的時間永遠嫌少。這次有幸以更多的時間細細觀影,在無數個失眠的夜裡抱著電腦,獨自觀看女性的私我紀錄片,這樣的觀影經驗如此私人、親密,在眾多風格前衛、具實驗性的作品中處處感到驚艷。我也一再想起初次在奚浩老師的紀錄片課上觀賞《柳川之女 The Willow River》時心底出現的靈光──原來這也是紀錄片啊。 回頭觀看每一個時代底下的切片與陌生記憶裡的群像,每一張臉孔都是時間的鑿痕,這大概是紀錄片總令我心生迷戀的緣由。而臺灣的紀錄片工作者們也在無所限制、且創作自由的這片島嶼上,為我們不斷紀錄/記憶總是生猛且饒富生命力的人間縮影。 今年的台灣競賽片出現了去年女性影展中、使我心底靈光再現的《未泯 A Rolling Stone》。 多次入獄的文學獎得主—未泯像極了《荒野之狼》中的哈利,在不被理解的世界裡孓然一身,在人間的荒野游泳,在生命的蜿蜒中迷路。年輕導演葉家辰透過長期貼身的拍攝,讓人想起多年前橫空出世,被譽為台灣紀錄片史上不可不看的作品《在高速公路上游泳 Swimming on the Highway》,兩部片都刻畫著充滿才氣,卻因為太過特別,使致找不著那把生命鑰匙的男同志在生活中特別孤寂的模樣。導演透過銳利的角度凝練影像,而銀幕飄出了氣味,原來真正孤獨的靈魂是沒有形狀,只有氣味的──發霉的舊毛衣、潮濕的小套房、夜半燃起的寂寞的菸。 全文閱讀:https://bit.ly/49kzLeY
不需要王子──我就是女巫!1990s 以降的女性私電影 - 釀電影一個人的人生可以成為紀錄片的題材,不一定是因為他走向多不凡的終點,起碼對這個社會來說,未泯這個人的存在並不閃亮,相反的,他像是活在黑夜裡的人,努力求生卻不斷失誤。更生以後,他尋求著穩定平淡的幸福,但即便影片裡他與伴侶甜蜜交往著,我們卻還是不免替他感到不安,好像有什麼東西隨時會斷掉,更深的傷害淺藏在欲求與渴望的底下。 奇妙的是,因為有這樣的紀錄片,我們看見了一種極端的不凡,不管在一個人的文字裡,還是他在騎樓下等愛人的時候,突然決定練習倒立的模樣。一個心思敏銳也有一定自傲的創作者,在監獄裡寫下撞擊人心的字,得到林榮三文學獎的肯定,出來以後過著用體膚勞動的日子。 人的存在本身一定有它的魔法,而一個旁觀者可以用力捕捉下那些magic的瞬間,卻無法教他自己怎麼用。但一定需要用嗎?也許,存在本身就已經夠了。
導演與被攝者之間互動親近,給予了紀錄片相當的私密感,這讓主角未泯自己在看完片後因為鏡面反射的詭異而感到「怵目驚心、胃縮噁心」,對觀者而言,私密感強化了顛簸而奇特的生命在鏡頭下的「真實」。然而除了紀錄片的再現本質之外,所謂說法,也是主體在不同的特定時空和狀態下與他者及社會互動交涉後,所產生出對內對外都得以安頓的一種交代。站在局外,要對他人做出價值判斷輕而易舉,難的是理解生命何以至此背後的推力與需求。
「林榮三文學獎」是由財團法人林榮三文化公益基金會所主辦,為具有指標性的全國性綜合文學競賽。曾任府院會要職的企業家,同時也是《自由時報》創辦人林榮三先生於2004年擔任該基金會董事長期間,創設林榮三文學獎,獎項分為短篇小說獎(第五屆前為小說獎)、新詩獎、散文獎、小品文獎,前三類各有首獎、二獎、三獎、及佳作,自2005年第一屆起至今已舉辦18屆。

【自由副刊】【第十一屆林榮三文學獎.新詩獎佳作】 當他們扣下扳機 - 自由藝文網38:59 每一把鑰匙都是他與他人的連結,雖然他曾開玩笑要用鑰匙回去報復故人,但至少電影並沒有告訴我們他有作過這件事,可見他的本性不習慣傷害他人,甚至經常性的讓自己被傷害而認為這是一種愛的付出。 「他說他愛我,但是他的愛過於擁擠」 「只能踮起腳尖換一點的換氣氣」 . . . 被轉九十度的公車影像,像是瀑布般流洩而下,搭配他充滿修辭卻不會做作的散文效果極好,這個靈魂流浪尋覓肉體,因為他渴望被好好接住。
18:16 蠻喜歡這段使用的倒放效果的,就是那種「不如不來,卻又有必要來」的難堪,每一次見面,不互動是冷漠,互動則是傷害,誤解隨時間而累積,滾成更大的冷漠與傷害,而家人對他真的如此無情嗎?母親偷塞的衣服是一種社會規範下的愛,彷彿是在暗示只要「他符合社會規範的去存在」就能夠接受母親的愛,而他的拒絕則是對這種愛的反抗。 其實誰不想被愛?但有前提的愛,而且是以犧牲自我重視身分(同性戀)的愛,又何嘗不是一種控制呢?

Predicaments are complex equations of structure and choice. To survive in the cracks is to constantly navigate a tug-of-war between dignity, morality, and belief—yet how much room to move exists within the walls of the siege? Even in moments of survival against all odds, the inner storm—relentless and overwhelming—never truly subsides. Survival is never mere luck. And there is no need for apology.
An elderly political prisoner battling Alzheimer’s, a ghostwriter who starts a martial arts film company after release, a teenage boy drifting between virtual networks and real life, an old woman singlehandedly raising her intellectually disabled son, a directionally challenged writer carrying 37 keys, a father whose voice is ignored both in life and death, and a banyan tree that has silently witnessed decades of neighborhood change. How do they confront the challenges and setbacks brought by society? Continuing the acclaim of the previous three editions, Giloo now presents the fourth wave of its “Taiwan Shorts Knockout” series—seven powerful short films that delve into the everyday struggles and stories unfolding in Taiwanese society.
Whenever I hear someone say, “They continue to give so much for each other—after all, they’re family, and blood is thicker than water,” I can’t help but think of this: In every family, there are at least two people who share no blood relation at all. So how can a phrase like “blood is thicker than water” possibly account for all the effort, pain, and complexity woven into those relationships? This exhibition presents five short films, each exploring a different kind of relationship. Some are bound by blood, while others reveal that sometimes, water runs thicker than blood. I often think of a line from The World Between Us: "In a family, people hurt each other. But they don’t heal each other." Perhaps that’s just what it means to be human—so clumsy at love, and yet so desperate for it.
