導演 Dir :奇斯洛夫斯基 Krzysztof Kieslowski
演員 Cast : 艾蓮謝歌 Irene Jacob

心靈感通的直覺本應難以表達,但電影大師奇斯洛夫斯基利用詩意唯美的影像,配以仿如天外梵音的音樂,將這個敏銳而神秘的故事娓娓道來。兩位擁有相同樣貌的女子,素未謀面卻心有靈犀:波蘭女高音維朗妮卡在台上詠唱詩篇,當場耗盡生命也不自知;一股莫名傷悲湧進法國音樂教師維朗妮卡的心坎,提醒她要遠離危險的音樂之路……當年艾蓮謝歌留在暖黃菲林上的溫柔身影,今天依然美得叫觀眾心碎。
Irene Jacob took home the Best Actress award at Cannes (1991) for her portrayal of both Veronika, a Polish singer, and Veronique, a French music teacher. They look identical, share the same passions, but are completely unaware of each other's existence. Just after the untimely death of Veronika, a string of events provokes Veronique to substantiate what, she believes, could be her dual subsistence. Krzysztof Kieslowski abandons a traditional cause-and-effect narrative structure and sensually pieces together the many small and seemingly unrelated details through the most lyrical and exquisite images one can imagine.

個個女人都有本難唸的經。帶著嚴重心靈創傷的妙齡媽媽,為了毫不溫暖的家營役勞碌,隔著電話跟獨居大姊傾訴是她唯一的減壓大法。女兒嫌她未夠麻煩錯手殺死爸爸,還有老媽的翻生鬼魂夜夜纏著她,纖纖女流如何渡過大難關?事實証明男人就算死清光,女性團結起來仍能撐起半邊天。艾慕杜華今次將偏鋒稍微收斂,溫柔細膩卻依然未變,六個女人破天荒攜手奪走康城后冠亦為一時佳話。康城影展最佳劇本得主。
Many years ago, the Ramuida and Sole lost their parents to a fire in La Mancha, their home town. Upon the death of their Aunt Paula, who claims she still speaks with their mother Irene, the past becomes the present and the living seamlessly coexist with the dead, giving rise to situations that are either hilarious or filled with a deep, genuine emotion. Winning a slue of awards, including Best Actress and Best Screenplay in Cannes 2006, Volver delves into the culture of death in small town Spain, where the richness and humanity of their rites mean that the dead never really die.

導演 Dir : 約化巴納希 Jafar Panahi
演員 Cast : 西瑪莫巴拉克莎西 Sima Mobarak-Shahi

伊朗國家隊進軍世界杯最後一役,主場球迷吶喊助威氣氛沸騰到頂點。六位良家少女想親歷現場為國家打氣,塗國旗戴Cap帽扭盡六壬卻未必可以逃過入口處的軍方防線,一場「天賦睇波權」的鬥爭正式開始。口口聲聲全為了女性免受滋擾,其實是真心保護她們的規條,還是政權越位欺壓人權的手段,實在值得深思。柏林影展評審大獎得主。
Panahi's most witty and accessible, yet still insightful and significant work confronts the absurdity of Iran's strict gender segregation policies in a more lighthearted manor. The film follows six female football fanatics who are arrested trying to sneak into Iran's 2006 World Cup qualifying match. As the day goes on, the women and the soldiers detaining them realize they are both prisoners and discover the bond between them is a true passion for football… Silver Bear Award at the Berlin Film Festival.

導演 Dir : 中島哲也 Tetsuya Nakashima
演員 Cast : 中谷美紀 Miki Nakatani、瑛太 Eita、伊勢谷友介 Yusuke Iseya

從教學精英瞬間墮落成泡泡浴女郎,因誤殺男友而被打入監倉,男人的嫌棄與無間的不幸依然打擊不到松子尋找愛與夢想的決心。改編自日本暢銷小說,擁有強烈風格的《下妻物語》導演中島哲也運用奇艷映像與配樂,創造每一位女孩都憧憬的灰姑娘傳說。這位擁有化憂傷成歡笑力量的奇女子實在人見人愛,「愛瑪仕」中谷美紀的夢幻演繹更令她首度封后日本金像獎!
The film touches very deep emotions and fears as we follow Matsuko through her neglected childhood, career as a dutiful junior high school teacher, battered lover, prison inmate, devoted wife, yakuza girl, up until her end as a homeless recluse. Tetsuya Nakashima uses vibrant and often amusing images to articulate a very bleak story about finding the inherent beauty in life even as it spirals towards destruction. Garnering 5 separate Best Actress titles, Miki Nakatani gives an enthralling performance as she embodies the tangled life of Matsuko .

In French and Bambara with English and Chinese subtitles
導演 Dir : 奧斯曼塞班 Ousmane Sembene
演員 Cast : 芳托瑪塔歌芭利 Fatoumata Coulibaly、瑪莫娜海倫娜戴亞拉 Maimouna Helene Diarra

女性性器官割禮殘害過無數非洲少女的生命,四名逃避割禮的小女孩跑到女巫家,女巫用神秘咒語與老一輩的權貴派大鬥法,更激發姊姊妹妹站起來,從此向男權至上的暴力傳統說不。非洲電影之父奧斯曼塞班導技奇詭奔放,今次為遏止害人習俗依然不遺餘力。曾在康城贏得無盡熱烈的掌聲,更榮獲康城影展評審團特別獎及特別關注獎。
Moolaadé offers a critical and humanistic portrait of the ancient practice of female circumcision. In a fear driven act of rebellion, four young girls slated for this inhumane procedure take refuge with a local mother named Colle. She invokes the mystical rite of “moolaade” (protection) on the girls and the entire village is thrown into a frenzied and frustrated stalemate. Sembene creates a refined and unpretentious, yet equally intricate and profoundly significant, snap shot of rural Africa confronting the forces of modernization.
