持攝影機的男人（林強全新配樂版）

劉吶鷗 Na-ou LIU

台灣 Taiwan | 1933 | DCP | B&W | 30min

1933 年，電影事業正起步的劉吶鷗，拿著新奇的百代9.5 毫米攝影機，實驗性地拍下他台南老家親友的身影，以及他在不同城市旅行的景象風光。《持攝影機的男人》是他個人用影像書寫的日記，也為當時的時代風華留下寶貴紀錄。 本片共分為〈人間卷〉〈遊行卷〉〈風景卷〉〈廣東卷〉〈東京卷〉五卷，大量的人臉特寫、各種角度的取鏡、快速的剪接，使影像充滿律動感，如樂如詩。2019 年，音樂人林強為原為無聲的影片全新配樂，在電氣、廟宇音樂及人聲吟唱所營造的轟鳴之中，引領觀者走入時光隧道，回溯記憶的吉光片羽。 This film is comprised of five episodes, shot in four cities across national boundaries: Tainan, Canton, Shenyang, and Tokyo. It displays impressionistic street spectacle and images of quotidian life, as well as excursions by train and ship, unfolding as a private visual journal and a sort of souvenir, but with refined framing, camera movement, and rhythmic editing. With his own perspective and artistic sensitivity embedded in this film, struggling between being a Japanese colonial subject and a Taiwanese/Chinese litterateur, LIU attempts to transcend geological, national, racial/ethnic, linguistic and medial boundaries, to establish a depoliticized, internationalist, cosmopolitan cinematic utopia, a pure cinema, and a fluid and contested identity.
