以人為本 — 與是枝裕和對話
In Dialogue with Hirokazu Kore-eda |
|

是枝裕和的電影，有它獨特的美學和世界觀。從早期的紀錄短片到近期的故事長片，他的電影都看似閒適憇靜、漫不經心，但骨子裡，卻隱藏不安。管它是社會性的問題，還是不可臆測的人生，是枝裕和的焦點，卻總放在角色的身上，一切以人為先。記憶與失去，死亡與存在，紀實與戲劇，都是是枝裕和作品中常見的命題。
今次我們很榮幸能邀得是枝裕和親身出席香港亞洲電影節，於放映《當記憶失去了》後跟我們談他的電影。

| The films of Hirokazu Kore-eda
invent its own genre of artistry and world view, and resides
comfortably in it. With his works seemingly quaint and
meandering at times, there is always a trace of disquietness
pulsating throughout. May the topic be social issues or
the unpredictable nature of life, Kore-eda always places
the focus on the personhood of the character. The intricate
relationships between memory and loss, death and existence,
documentary and fiction—they are topics that appear often
in the works of Kore-eda.
We are most honored to have Mr. Kore-eda attend the
Hong Kong Asian Film Festival, and he will be present
in a discussion forum on his works after the screening
of WITHOUT MEMORY.

| 醫院出錯，令關根萬司患上了所謂的「前向性失憶」，即是腦海裡再不能把新的記憶保存下來。是枝用上兩年時間，跟隨關根一家四口的生活。影片在質疑日本醫療制度的同時，也提出哲理性的問題：記憶於人而言，究竟是甚麼？是枝從只有舊記憶的關根身上，得到了新的體會。 |
| After a botched procedure, Sekine
developed Wernicke's Encephalopathy — losing his short-term
memory. For two years, Kore-eda chronicles the lives of
the four family members. Aside from posing harsh questions
on the government's health care system, there were philosophical
concerns as well: What is memory to human? Kore-eda certainly
gained new insight from Sekine, with only past memories
remained in him. |
