本單元雖是紀錄片影展的焦點,但有許多劇情片摻雜其中;而作為東南亞專題,不少國家及影人在此缺席,這些都是刻意為之。選映的片單質量皆豐,每一部都是高度原創的一時之選,包含幾部預料之外的驚喜之作,有首映作品,也有難得一見的時代經典。
這些電影皆透露出善感敏銳的個人眼光,關注孕育出這些創作的國家,深入人民的記憶與希望。單元雖以憂傷為名,但並不代表這些作品都有著讓人落淚的悲情,而是為了標記創作中面對真實毫不迴避的誠摯想法與感情。這些影片會齊聚在此,一來因為它們都是好電影,二來是透過這些作品,你將會看到世界上幾個最神秘國家的真實。

Focus Programme: SEA of Sadness
For a programme in a documentary festival, this may have quite some fiction films. For a programme on Southeast Asian cinema, there are a few countries missing and maybe some filmmakers too. It’s all on purpose and it’s all of high quality and originality. There are brand new films that nobody has seen and older films that will be new for the younger generation of viewers.
All the films are sensitive and personal and go deep into the memories and hopes of the people in the countries they are made in. The sadness of the title does not mean it’s all to cry about, but that the films are made with true and sincere ideas and feelings. First of all, these films are good films; second of all, they tell you the real thing about some of the more mysterious countries on the planet.
