Holy Spider Post-screening Talk

(Talk conducted in Cantonese.) 《聖誅》的導演兼編劇亞里亞巴斯，光是劇本就花了15年時間去構思。雖然是改編自真實發生的伊朗連環殺手案件，但亞里亞巴斯並不是想重現這件駭人的殺人案，而是想審視一個更宏大的觀點：仇女現象。希望能為伊朗甚至其他國家，立一面自省的鏡子，即使這面鏡誠實得可怕。 當然，電影未必能一下子改變世界，但總能引發思考。百老匯電影中心邀請到王栩羚（Lilian）出席1月2日的《聖誅》映後講座，從《聖誅》中的故事，連結至近日伊朗「頭巾革命」，反思性工作者、女性與人民權益，審視日常中難以察覺的「以義為名」的惡，亦會分享一些她旅訪伊朗的見聞。 日期：1月2日（一） 時間：15:00-16:00（《聖誅》13:00場次放映後） 主題：性工作者、女人、生命、自由 地點：油麻地百老匯電影中心一樓 費用：全免。《聖誅》13:00場次觀眾憑票根可優先入場 講者：王栩羚 Lilian 講者簡介：有閪＋不吃動物的人類，關心世界不同的生命，追求公義，尤其關注性別、動物、政治等領域。相信知識、對話和感受，能接通不同生命，織成小小的社區網絡，在壞時代裡得以守住自己、燃亮他人。曾在國際和本地人權組織和非牟利組織工作，現為推廣性/別平等文化、關注性暴力文化的教育工作者，並為推動性別公義的非牟利組織FLUID的大使、以及談性空間Common6的顧問。 […]
