1999年世纪末,一颗印度的核子卫星即将坠地,地球上一片恐慌,视之为世界末日的到临。住在巴黎的女子克蕾儿(Solveig Dommartin饰)在一次离开男友尤金(Sam Neill饰)的浪游中,认识疑为工业间谍的崔佛(William Hurt饰),并且深深为之着迷。一 次车祸意外中,克蕾儿认识二名抢匪,受托运送大批赃款,克蕾儿开始出发去寻找迷一样的人物崔佛。他们的足迹遍布四大洲:从尼斯、巴黎、柏林、里斯本、莫斯科、北京、东京、追逐到旧金山、雪梨,最后到达澳洲中部荒芜的库柏培地原住民生活区。过程中,克蕾儿终于知道崔佛的本名是山姆法柏。他不是工业间谍,而是一位科学家的儿子。许多私家侦探追逐他的原因是老法柏(Max von Sydow饰)制造了一个可以让盲人看见的摄影机。为的是要让山姆目盲的母亲(Jeanne Moreau饰)可以看见她的亲人。就在一群人汇集澳洲峡谷的时候,核子卫星被美国打下,核磁波干扰了所的电器设备,一切都恢复原始的状态。外头的世界不知是生是死?这群人在地下实验室里开始了一连串超越人类科技的实验,数字摄影转换成脑波、再转换成影像的实验成功,终于让山姆的母亲看见家人,不久终因体力不胜负荷而去世。临死前,他母亲说:「看不见反而更好,这世界竟变得如此丑陋。」温德斯的微言大义,在此作了深刻的呈现。之后,包括老法柏、山姆和克蕾儿都陷入对梦境的痴迷中。他们把梦境转成视觉,让人可以读梦(老法柏一直想因此获得诺贝尔奖),山姆和父亲的冲突矛盾、克蕾儿对童年之梦的偏执,像一层层的牢笼,将他们紧紧网住。使每一个人都陷入偏执的迷失当中。只有陈述此事件的尤金是清醒的。他知道世界并没有毁灭(只是时受核磁脉冲影响),只是这群人陷在不可自拔的梦境追寻中。于是一切如尤里西斯的漫游遂都有了反映与解答。

谢尔盖·洛兹尼察是一位东欧历史的出色记录人。他的记录既涵盖了最近的事件,如《中央广场》(2014)中的乌克兰叛乱,也涵盖了更早的事件,如《国家葬礼》(2019)中的斯大林葬礼。他在展现过去时总是保持警觉,巧妙地运用档案素材,使观众仿佛成为现场目击者。在这部讲述1989年到1991年间,波罗的海国家立陶宛脱离苏联的影片中也是如此。这一以大量歌唱进行和平抗议的时期被称为"歌唱革命"。 作为独立运动的发起人之一,现年88岁的维陶塔斯·兰茨贝吉斯当时处于历史剧变的中心。借助大量关于示威活动、党代会和苏联军事干预的档案素材,他富于洞察力的思考得到补足。冗长的档案片段见证了在通往自由的道路上,兰茨贝里斯和他的同胞们所需要付出的耐心。这是一堂关于苏联解体的细致而引人入胜的历史课。 本片获IDFA竞赛单元最佳影片奖、最佳剪辑奖。

When the film begins, it is all over. “We know it’s terminal, and that’s all”, says Juliane of her mother Kerstin, who is in great pain and about to die aged just 64. Although the young doctor she consults acknowledges on a personal level that everyone has the right to manage their own death, he nonetheless reminds her that euthanasia is still illegal in Germany. This is even more the case at the Catholic hospice where Kerstin is staying. As relatives come to say goodbye to her mother and the emotions of memories mingle with the anticipation of grief, Juliane finds herself having to do battle with time – unbending, apathetic and monochrome – and this is superbly reflected in the convulsions of the handheld camera in wide shots. Based on personal experience, Jessica Krummacher’s second feature film vividly relates the painful story of losing a parent. There is no violence or morbidity, rather the director describes the most important of events via the smallest, most fragile of details – the exchanging of words, texts and tender gestures that remain with us and get under our skin.
《狂暴 La Rabbia》使用了20世纪50年代的纪录片片段和相关评论,试图回答存在主义的问题:为什么我们的生活以不满、痛苦和恐惧为特征?这部电影分为两个完全独立的部分,这两个部分的导演,左翼的皮埃尔·保罗·帕索里尼和保守派的乔瓦尼·瓜雷希,为观众提供了对现代社会的对比分析和处方。第一部分,由帕索里尼,是一个谴责西方文化的罪行,特别是那些对殖民非洲的罪行。与此同时,它是一部关于前非洲殖民地解放和独立的编年史,把这些民族描绘成世界舞台上的新主角,把马克思主义作为他们的“救星”,并暗示他们“无辜的残暴”将成为这个时代的新宗教。相比之下,瓜雷斯基的角色则是对西方文明的捍卫,以及用传统基督教术语表达的对人类未来的希望。
