百萬格子小富翁 Millionaire in Checkfun
台灣Taiwan / 2011 / 16min / 傅榆 FU Yue
★CNEX 監製影片
格子店是一種新的創業模式，每個店面被分隔成上百個小格子，再由承租者展示、販賣任何琳瑯滿目且各具特色的創意商品。由於分散風險的經營模式，當2007年全球性金融風暴來襲之際，格子店迅速在台灣街頭湧現。這種微型創業模式讓許多人躍躍欲試，利用業餘或待業時間激發創意，開發產品，力圖在眾多商品中脫穎而出。本片以活潑輕盈的方式，記錄了三個格主的創業小故事，同時見證格子店隨經濟景氣消沈而變遷。石頭家中從事汽車零件代工，平時在家幫忙，利用晨起和晚餐後的空暇製作精美的手工花束；雅心的先生從事二手車買賣，她平時要幫忙顧店，閒暇之餘則自製襪子娃娃；麗惠目前在家修改衣服及製作制服，在平淡的工作之外，喜愛針線活的她開始動手做包包。景氣越差，格子店的生長越是快速；一旦景氣復蘇，經營的危機也隨之浮現。這些可愛、努力又帶點小聰明的格子店家與格子主人們，在這個過程中尋找到更多屬於自己生命中的轉機。雖然無法如願地以小搏大，成為夢想的大富翁，但格子店卻讓他們獲得了成就感的幸福與價值。
The Check Fun Store is an innovative business model. Every store is divided into hundreds of small checks to display and sell a wide range of creative products provided by people who rent these checks. Thanks to its risk diversification nature, the check fun store business model proliferated in Taiwan when the financial crisis hit in 2007 to carry people through the global economic downturn. To start up a business in this tiny scale encouraged many people to give it a try that they were using their leisure hours or unemployment to create their own merchandises and hoped that these new products would succeed. This documentary film records the start-up stories of three check owners in a cheerful way. It also witnesses the ups-and-downs of the check fun stores alongside the overall economic ups-and-downs. “Stone’s” family is running an auto parts manufacturing factory. She helps out in the factory while using the early morning and leisure hours after dinner to do her hand-made flower bouquets. Ya-Xin’s husband is selling used cars. She works at the dealership, too; meanwhile, she makes socks dolls after work. Li-Hui’s current job is to alter clothes and make uniforms at home. She loves to make bags by hands to get away from her boring works. The worse the economy fares, the more popular the check fun stores are. On the other hand, once the economy starts to recover, the challenges become bigger for these check business undertakers. In this documentary film, we see how these witty hardworking check fun stores owners and the check leaseholders interacted, trying to pursue opportunities to redirect their lives through the check fun store experiences. Though the chances for them to become rich by such a small investment is extremely slim, the check fun store experiences win them senses of achievements and self esteem.

「節拍攻擊」是一隊成立了十年的街舞組合，曾踏上國際街舞比賽的舞台。成員們個性強硬，對商界、娛樂界以至其他舞者都勇於批評，而旁人的推崇或不屑，他們都不放在眼內，只一心沉醉在其舞蹈中。
“Rhythm Attack” is a street dance group formed 10 years ago. They are powerful dancers and outspoken critics of businessmen, the entertainment industry and even fellow dancers. Neither do they care about praise nor disdain. They just chill and try to make a killing, B-boy style.

天還未亮，縣城高中的學生們已經在苦讀，偌大的操場上滿是奮發努力的年輕人。這是中國西部的貧困縣城，無數的學生和家長把希望投向教育，為的是改變自己的人生。所有的努力都是為了面對最終的高考，這就像是一道大門。通過考試，一些人能邁進新的人生，走進城市的大學。北京，陰冷的初冬時節。一位來自農村的大學畢業生面臨一次重大的抉擇。是留下還是離開？公車站前滿是擁擠的年輕人，地鐵裡一張張疲倦的面容，訴說著真實的差距。年輕人和遊客一起在天還未亮的時刻湧進天安門廣場觀看升旗。這裡是這個國家強壯有力的心臟，卻給不出任何答案。上海，繁華的夜景如夢似幻，一位音樂學院的畢業生談起初入社會的阻力。她回憶起苦練鋼琴的歲月，父母的期待和付出彷彿還在眼前；家庭錄影帶裡，坐在鋼琴前的童年就像是一個有苦有樂的玩笑；高級早教機構裡，孩子稚嫩的臉上充滿了疑惑……新式教育將向孩子們提出嶄新的期盼，而黃浦江上夜航的船隻，已悄悄遁入幽深的黑暗。
China Gate tells the story of young Chinese fight to change their fate through studying. Right before dawn, students in Huining have already started their self-studying session; hard working youngsters have filled up the space of school ground. This is one of the most poverty-stricken counties in Western China; here people’s only hope is in education, as the way to change their social status. Therefore all their effort point towards the College Entrance Examination, the process is like going through a gate, those who pass can study at urban universities, and have the chance to build a better life. During the same winter season in Beijing, a graduate student faces a big decision. Should he keep trying to survive in the big city or get back to his countryside home? The exhausted faces at the Beijing underground seem to be revealing the truth about their distance in between. The student comes to see the flag ceremony at Tiananmen Square, where the pulsing symbol of the nation lies. However it is not giving any answer to his anxiety. Shanghai’s nightfall sparkles with its prosperity, but one graduate from Shanghai music conservatory tells her struggle of finding a place in society. The memories of handwork from early age and the high hope of parents seem like yesterday, the home video footage of her sitting in front of the piano at young age looked like a bittersweet joke. Jumping back to the present, in a playful early learning institute, it seems more like confusion appearing on these children’s face. Is this a new educational method that gives the answer to the high hopes of parents?

★CNEX 監製影片 CNEX Production
這是一個有關尋找的故事，尋找迷茫的源點，同時也在尋找消除迷茫的轉機。
在Sam25歲的這年，他前所未有地覺得自己的人生不如意：工作不順利，家庭不溫暖，就連女友也背叛他。於是，飽受傷痛的Sam借著理想的名義，選擇去了北京，希望實現電影夢。然而，北京的遭遇讓他第一次感覺到社會對孤立個體的壓榨和排擠，也第一次清醒地看到了理想和現實之間的真實距離。
生活就像海綿，你越用力擊它，它也越反擊你，你越想改變它，你反而越會被它吞噬，直到你筋疲力盡，直到你妥協。這就是Sam的命運，也可以說是我們的命運。你站得越高，只能說明你妥協得越多。
Sam is 25 and has been living with his parents in Shenzhen for 20 years now. Sam has worked in the film industry for 3 years now. He wants to become the next ZHANG Yi-mou but his parents just want Sam to find a good job and to stay close to home. At home, Sam is close to his mom but distant from his dad. Right now, Sam feels that his life is not going well. His career is unsuccessful, his family life is not a source of comfort, and even his girlfriend betrays him. Full of hurt, and in the name of better opportunities, Sam, like many before him who migrated north, leaves for Beijing. Sam believes that Beijing has stories to tell and better lives to lead. What Sam does not anticipate is the hardship that comes with a big city. Instantly, and without his parents’ shielding, Sam’s shyness and weakness are magnified. Lacking the ability to maneuver complicated social circles, he is marginalized by his peers in the film industry. For the first time, Sam experiences profound loneliness and immense pressures from city life. For the first time, Sam sees the widening gap between dream and reality. Even in relationships Sam cannot escape the tragedy of getting dumped. With all the “could”, “would” and “should”, Sam cannot figure out what he truly desires. He is getting more and more confused and yet still not realize how fragile his dream is. Like a bird with its wings clipped off, Sam couldn’t even fly to a safe hiding place. A heart full of defeat Sam vacations at a place called Luku Lake. Sam feels a sense of freedom that hasn’t been felt for some time. The blue sky, the turquoise lake, the lush valley, people’s smiles, warm air, a child’s innocence…this is what Sam wants. At Luku Lake Sam is able to reflect and think about everything he has and everyone around him, including his parents. But no matter how blue the sky, it can never replace the darkness that hovers over Sam’s life, because the realities of Sam’s everyday life beckons him. When everyone around him basks in happiness, he walks alone, unable engage. The hotel owner Jesse tells Sam, to be a man means to dream big and act big. Sam is incapable of that. A vacation is a respite from the daily grind but ultimately, Sam returns to what he knows and to his family. He starts to speak to the father whom he hasn’t spoken to in 20 years, and he goes back to work and to singing karaoke.

兩個普通的農村家庭，為了下一代的命運背井離鄉來到城市，開始了尋找夢想的漂泊生活。然而接下來的發展，並未朝著他們所預料的方向進行：高昂的學費把張知麗的兒子擋在城市學校門外，她每天只能在舊貨市場自己教孩子識字。兩個留在農村的女兒由於長期缺少父母管制，生活也難以自理，大女兒已經產生了輟學的念頭，經常曠課逃學；而另外，丈夫車禍去世後的楊繡青為了不讓孩子再象自己那樣受苦，更為了能堂堂正正的做個城市人，她選擇了讓大一點的女兒退學去酒吧打工，和自己一起賺錢供兒子讀書。楊繡青現在最擔心的不是兒子的學費，而是以後的學費會越來越貴，到了升高中時，還要再交幾千元的擇校費，還有以後的大學。現實和夢想之間的巨大差距，讓兩個家庭在貧困中緊緊相擁。前方的路，究竟何去何從。是該重新回到農村，還是與命運做最後一次抗爭留在城市？每一個選擇似乎都是那麽難……
Two ordinary families from the countryside, for the fate of the next generation, have left their hometowns for the city, where they begin to seek their dream of a wandering life/begin their wandering life in pursuit of their dreams. However, things do not develop as expected. Exorbitant school fees kept Zhang Zhi Li’s child locked outside of the city’s school gates, leaving her with no option other than to teach her son how to read while she works at the flea market every day. Her two daughters, left at their countryside homestead out from under the watch of their parents, find it difficult to take care of themselves. The oldest daughter has already considered stopping her studies, often skipping school and cutting classes. In order to help them forget about their own hardships after her husband passed away in a car accident, and more so to become dignified citizens of the city, Yang Xiu Qing decides to lets her slightly older daughter leave school to work in a bar, like herself, to help earn money to support her son’s studies. Yang Xiu Qing’s biggest concern is not her son’s present tuition, but that his school fees will become increasingly expensive. Yang Xiu Qing will have to hand over more than a few thousand yuan in fees to send him to a good high school, and then there is always college to worry about. The tremendous gap between reality and dreams has left the two families tightly embraced by poverty. Exactly which road should they follow? Should they return to the countryside to start over, or should they take one last stand against fate and stay in the city? Neither choice seems to be very easy……

女演員蘇菲亞來到位於巴西聖保羅一座全南美最大的監獄，義務提供受刑人戲劇指導。她的到來為受刑人德斯特和阿非X帶來生命的一線光亮。極具音樂天分的兩人以牢房代碼509-E為名，組成了一個饒舌樂團，並在蘇菲亞的協助下大放異彩，不僅發行專輯，更進行多場巡演。然而，509-E富批判性的歌詞和發言讓政府當局不滿，更成為警方的眼中釘。當監獄發生挾持人質的暴動事件，正好成為監管單位禁止他們繼續演出的理由。他們的共同夢想，此時面臨了挑戰……本片拍攝期間長達七年，透過509-E飽含社會觀察的歌詞和他們的生命歷程，引發我們對於人權、刑罰與罪犯的思考。長期關注這些社會議題的女導演Luciana BURLAMAQUI 不僅呈現了大量貧富差距、人權不公與種族歧視等問題，更成立了製片公司，致力於人道主義議題的影片製作。
On The Edge of Light and Shadow looks into violence and human nature with the stories of an actress who has devoted her life to humanizing the penal system, the rap duo 509-E with Dexter and Afro-X inside the extinct Carandiru, at that time the largest prison in Latin America, and a judge who believes in a more dignified way to rehabilitate inmates. The documentary follows the life of these characters during seven years, beginning in the year 2000.

天降Falling From the Sky
中國 China / 2009 / 124min / 張贊波 ZHANG Zan-bo
鮮為人知的湖南綏寧縣是一個普通卻充滿魔幻的地方。作為西昌衛星發射中心發射出的火箭殘骸的理論落點，它從1990年始至今近20年的時間裡，先後數十次地迎接了從天而降的火箭殘骸。這種神秘而危險的“天外來客”打破了落點轄區內16萬當地人貧窮而平靜的生活。2008年是中國的“奧運年”和“航太年”。綏寧人民在跟全國人民一樣期待奧運關注奧運，並為包括航太實力在內的綜合國力的日益強大而由衷驕傲的同時，也不得不再次承受從天而降的宿命。
The untouched Suining county of Hunan province is an ordinary but magical place. As the theoretical falling area of the rocket debris launched from the Xichang Rocket Center, it has received rocket debris dozens of times over a 20-year period since 1990. This mysterious and dangerous “extraterritorial guest” has disturbed the poor but peaceful life of the 160,000 local residents. The year of 2008 is the “Olympic year” and the “astronomic year” in China. Suining residents were anticipating the Olympics like the rest of the country. While they are proud of the increasing national power including the astronomic capabilities, they have to face the destiny that falls from the sky.

用兩種極端的經濟個體的消費經歷，帶領觀眾一同探尋台灣現有的信用卡現象：台灣第一位申請破產成功的「卡奴」鄭三和，由一開始的莫名其妙負債，到驚覺自己已欠下百萬債務，銀行的催繳與財務公司以威脅恐嚇的方法討債，令鄭三和從此墜入「以卡養卡」的無間地獄；台灣第一位成功以紅利積點從銀行獲利的「卡神」楊蕙如，以銀行紅利的漏洞，成功地串連親友集中刷卡購買機票或購物台商品，再以網拍賺取其中差額，倒賺銀行上百萬，後被銀行停止信用卡使用。同樣有過切身之痛的楊蕙如勸卡奴們要面對現實：「趕快把卡剪掉吧！因為這個利息太重了，也不要想再借什麼現金卡來還卡債，那只會讓自己愈陷愈深而已。」
The film traces the consumption experiences of two extreme individuals, and takes the audience on a tour to explore the credit card phenomena in Taiwan: ZHENG San-he, the first Taiwanese “card slave” to successfully apply for bankruptcy. Not realizing what he had gotten into at first, ZHENG was startled to find himself owing millions of Taiwan Dollars (TWD). Pressure from banks and threats from asset management companies forced ZHENG into the vicious circle of sustaining one card with another; YANG Hui-ru, the first Taiwanese “card legend”who made a killing from a loophole in the credit card point program. YANG, with help from relatives and friends, took advantage of the loophole and accumulated huge amount of points through pooling together airline and consumer goods purchases. She then sold the points through online auctions. She earned over one million TWD before her card was canceled by the bank. Speaking from her own experiences, YANG Hui-ru advised card slaves to face reality: “Cut up the cards as soon as possible. The interest rate is too heavy. And don’t you think of paying back debt with more cards. It will only make yourself fall even deeper”.

近二十年來，或者是中國大陸的「黑貓白貓論」，或者是亞洲四小龍的「愛拼才會贏」，構成了以英美為首的全球化架構底下，華人透過出口與代工貿易進行財富增長的主要心理動力。造成今天華人經濟發展的，是來自一個比較不被仔細討論的脈絡。千年以來，福建與廣州海商早就跟全球市場接軌，他們發揮創意精神，以靈活多變的姿態跟世界不同文明背景的商人往來，以仲介者的角色，成為古代世界全球化貿易的要角。他們擁有虔誠的海神信仰：凡是在媽祖廟所在的地方，就會是歷史上的通商口岸、殖民地首府、租界，乃至當代的加工出口區、特區。這樣的歷史現實，造就了今天華人資本積累的基礎。但同時，是否也造成什麼樣的困境？對於資源的、對於品牌的、對於農村的、對於生態的？
For the past 20 years or so, with the “white cat or black cat” theory from the Mainland China or the philosophy of struggling to win or taking the second place from the Four Asian Tigers, the Chinese people have made their fortune through exports and processing trade under the globalized framework in which Britain and America takes the lead. As a matter of fact, what has led to the current economic development among Chinese societies is something that has rarely been under discussion. For the last 1000 years or so, businessmen from Fujian and Guangzhou have been integrated into the global market. With great creativity, they have played the role of middleman in dealing with businessmen from various cultural backgrounds, thus becoming a major player in the global trade. They devoutly believe in the Goddess of the Sea: wherever there is a Matsu temple, it is either a trading port, capital of the colony, a concession area in history or a current Export Processing Zone and a Special Economic Zone. Such kind of a historical reality have formed the foundation of the current wealth of the Chinese people, but at the same time did they also bring some problems related to natural resources, brands, rural area, or the ecology in the process of following the western industrial civilization and becoming prosperous?

2001年，美國政府以反恐為名，向阿富汗進軍，掃蕩當地的塔利班政權。2009年，奧巴馬上任後旋即向阿富汗增兵兩萬一千人，片中主人翁內森所屬的海軍陸戰隊便在其中。內森在當地執行搜索、接近並掃蕩敵人的任務，右腿卻不幸被射傷，自此不良於行；返國後雖然有妻子的細心照料，卻仍無法調適，無法回到正常生活的軌道之中。內森確實回到美國北卡羅萊納州的家中了，但他的右腳和心靈中的某部分卻沒有回來。或者，背負著太多心理包袱，活在身心都難以適應的美國，其實是重新回到另一個地獄呢？
From his embed with US Marines Echo Company in Afghanistan, photojournalist and filmmaker Danfung DENNIS reveals the devastating impact a Taliban machine-gun bullet has on the life of 25-year old Sergeant Nathan HARRIS. The film seamlessly transitions from stunning war reportage to an intimate, visceral portrait of one man’s personal struggle at home in North Carolina, where Harris confronts the physical and emotional difficulties of re-adjusting to civilian life with the love and support of his wife. Masterfully contrasting the intensity of the frontline with the unsettling normalcy of home, this documentary lays bare the true cost of war.

二○○九年八月八日，莫拉克風災打亂台灣的秩序，毀了小林人遮風避雨的家。到底是天災，還是人禍？眾人直指曾文水庫越域引水工程，卻未見兩黨互指不是、互揭瘡疤。小林人大聲吶喊：「小林人的生命不可白白喪失」，但政客們極有默契地對此選擇閉口。嬰兒來不及長大，小孩來不及唸國中，兒女來不及孝順父母；有人剛嫁進小林，有人僥倖逃過一劫，有人目睹崩山的一剎那……一場風災奪走小林四百一十人的生命，從此永遠沉睡在故土，超級明星災區卻變成有心人士的重建大餅，分歧的聲音使得永久屋分隔三地。然而永久屋是在地上，還是在天堂？
On August 8, 2009, Typhoon Morakot created havoc across Taiwan. It also obliterated the village of Hsiaolin, killing many who were sheltering from the storm. Was this tragedy the result of a natural disaster? Or was human negligence involved? The transbasin construction on the Tsengwen Reservoir was regarded by many as the chief culprit. The two main political parties did not engage in their usual finger pointing and opening of old wounds. To the call that “the residents of Hsiaolin Village should not die in vein,” politicians across party lines remained silent. Infants who will never grow up; children who will never go to school; sons and daughters who will never pray for their parents. One victim had just married into the village; others escaped by the skin of their teeth; yet others witnessed the moment the mountain moved. The typhoon took 410 lives in Hsiaolin Village alone, people who will forever remain buried under the earth. The storm made the village famous, and it became a target for people grubbing after a piece of the reconstruction budget. Disagreement caused survivors to be relocated to three different sites. But is their permanent home to be on Earth, or will it in Heaven?

影片的拍攝從2001年開始，歷時十年，記錄了中國南部珠三角地區的小谷圍島練溪村龍船的故事。離廣州城距離只有十幾公里的練溪村，在2001年仍保持著相當傳統的生活方式和習俗，村民主要由農民和漁民組成，他們熱衷划龍船，傳統的端午節龍舟競渡是村莊一年一度的盛事。2003年隨著廣州大學城的建設，練溪村村民不得不搬遷和重新安置。今天，小谷圍島和練溪村的名字已經從地圖上消失，縱橫交錯的高速公路和地鐵連接著小島與城市，擁有十多所高校的廣州大學城，其規模相當於可容納35到40萬人的中型城市。也許是命運的捉弄，練溪村舊址被改造成民俗旅遊區“嶺南印象園”， 失去了土地和遠離河岸的練溪村村民每逢端午節仍返回原村划龍船，龍船是否成了聯繫村民和故土家園的紐帶？傳統習俗將如何生存？在城市化迅速發展的中國，練溪村的故事，也是二十一世紀中國鄉土社會消逝的縮影。
The annual dragon boat race was a major event for the villagers of Lianxi, on an island in southern China. With the construction of University Town in 2003, the villagers were forced to resettle. Today, the island has been turned into a mini city, and the former site of Lianxi Village has been transformed into a folk culture resort. Resettled villagers return to the site every year to continue their tradition of dragon boat racing. Will the dragon boat remain the link between the villagers and their former homeland? Lianxi village’s fate profoundly reflects the many ongoing encounters between native cultures and modernization in China today.

網路發展到智慧型手機的演進，通訊與科技將現代人的一切生活與文化活動，跨越時空地連結在一起。 科學一詞在希臘字源中所指即是切割，人類不斷尋找不可切割的粒子或終極答案，卻忽略了人與人、 人與自然、與世界的連結。本片充滿符號與隱喻的活潑動畫，穿插大量歷史影像、多媒體素材，呈現歷史重大事件以及當前危機。導演為文明發展提出一個省思性的回顧，同時其自身家庭成員的互動觀察及父女的溫情自白，更增添此紀錄片的感人元素。
With wonderful heart and an impressive sense of scale, Connected explores the visible and invisible connections linking major issues of our time – the environment, consumption, population growth, technology, human rights, the global economy – while searching for her place in the world during a transformative time in her life. With humor, curiosity and irony, the SHLAIN family life merges with philosophy to create both a personal portrait and a proposal for ways we can move forward as a civilization. The film proposes that after centuries of declaring independence, it may be time for us to declare our interdependence instead.

城市與農村究竟有多遠？
對於張知莉與楊繡清這樣的家庭來說，它不僅僅是一張車票、一段路途。他們作為城市移民，卻無法蛻去腳上來自農村的泥土，也無法穿上城市光鮮的外衣。在城市的邊緣、在往返於城鄉的途中，他們時刻憧憬著都市生活，嚮往著主流社會的認可與接納，而現實的處境卻無比尷尬。
在「換城」的漫長旅途中，他們還有多少路要走？
Two ordinary families from the countryside, for the fate of the next generation, have left their hometowns for the city, where they begin to seek their dream of a wandering life/begin their wandering life in pursuit of their dreams. However, things do not develop as expected. Exorbitant school fees kept Zhang Zhi Li’s child locked outside of the city’s school gates, leaving her with no option other than to teach her son how to read while she works at the flea market every day. Her two daughters, left at their countryside homestead out from under the watch of their parents, find it difficult to take care of themselves. The oldest daughter has already considered stopping her studies, often skipping school and cutting classes. In order to help them forget about their own hardships after her husband passed away in a car accident, and more so to become dignified citizens of the city, Yang Xiu Qing decides to lets her slightly older daughter leave school to work in a bar, like herself, to help earn money to support her son’s studies. Yang Xiu Qing’s biggest concern is not her son’s present tuition, but that his school fees will become increasingly expensive. Yang Xiu Qing will have to hand over more than a few thousand yuan in fees to send him to a good high school, and then there is always college to worry about. The tremendous gap between reality and dreams has left the two families tightly embraced by poverty. Exactly which road should they follow? Should they return to the countryside to start over, or should they take one last stand against fate and stay in the city? Neither choice seems to be very easy…

做為曾經稱霸歐亞非的古羅馬帝國的政商重心，意大利有大量的古老遺跡，是觀光業興盛的一大原因。其中，意大利最大的行政區──西西里島，也曾是古希臘的殖民區，有著豐富的山城、皇宮、神殿、墓穴等遺址。本片的拍攝地點正是位於西西里島，用寬闊的視角，拍攝了大量當地的遺跡廢墟，擁有意、法雙重國籍的青年導演Benoit FELICI，選擇以流動、唯美的攝影風格，記錄意大利明媚風光背後的廢墟奇景。然而，這些廢墟是自二戰後到現在，因為腐敗的政治、未經審慎思考就開出的空頭支票，導致大量興建未成便廢止的建物：沒有觀眾的體育館；從沒有病人進住的醫院；完工後五十年來從未有過演出的劇院；兀自聳立的巨大橋墩……本片不僅呈現了當地人民的生活樣貌，更藉著這些「現代遺跡」功能的轉換與再利用，突顯了當地人無限的創造力與生命力。
“Unfinished buildings have the beauty of this which could have been. Of this which is not yet there. Of this which might be one day.” (Inspired by “Le temps en ruines” by Marc AUGÉ) Italy, home of ruins: A foray into the unfinished, Italy’s most prominent architectural style between the end of WW2 and the present day. Buildings in a limbo between perfection and nothingness, given up on halfway through their construction, fallen into ruin before they were ever used, are an integral part of the Italian architectural landscape: Stadiums without audiences, hospitals without patients, theaters that after 50 years have not yet seen their premiere. This is a study of the potential value of unfinished buildings in Italy and of man’s ability to adapt them to his everyday needs. These ruins, whose future has already passed and whose present carries the taste of an eternal wait, act as an invitation to meditate about time.

垃圾圍城Beijing Besieged by Waste
中國 China / 2010 / 83min / 王久良 WANG Jiu-liang
伴隨著城市的瘋狂擴張，會聚於城市的人口的急劇膨脹，垃圾作為人類消費過後的產物其產量也在日甚一日地增長。它們直接地傷害著我們賴以生存的環境，我們呼吸的空氣、我們飲用的水源以及我們所吃的任何食物，這些都無不隱含著垃圾的陰影。面對垃圾的威脅，我們誰也別想逃脫！從2008年10月開始，自由攝影師王久良，懷揣捉襟見肘的費用走訪了北京周邊的大型垃圾場，拍攝了10000多張照片。這些垃圾場往往有上萬平方米的規模，分佈在北京的五環和六環附近，當他在Google Earth上用黃色圖示把垃圾場所在的位置和座標標示出來時，畫面驚人地呈現出北京城被密密麻麻的垃圾場包圍的圖景。於是王久良給這個項目命名為“垃圾圍城”。
While China’s rise, and its immense challenges, commands world attention, less light has been shed upon the colossal problem of waste generated by a burgeoning population, expanding industry, and rapacious urban growth. Photographer Wang Jiuliang turns his lens upon the grim spectacle of garbage, excrement, refuse, and wreckage heaped upon the landscape that surrounds China’s mega-metropolis, Beijing. Eking out a hazardous living within are the scavengers, mostly rural migrants, who struggle to maintain familial and cultural structures amid the bleakest of occupations. Wang shows the desecration of once-vital farmlands and rivers in the shadow of China’s gleaming cities and planes and super-trains; the unholy cycle of construction’s consumption and waste, and poignant images of the daily lives of scavengers who toil at their own peril.

天還未亮，縣城高中的學生們已經在苦讀，偌大的操場上滿是奮發努力的年輕人。這是中國西部的貧困縣城，無數的學生和家長把希望投向教育，為的是改變自己的人生。所有的努力都是為了面對最終的高考，這就像是一道大門。通過考試，一些人能邁進新的人生，走進城市的大學。北京，陰冷的初冬時節。一位來自農村的大學畢業生面臨一次重大的抉擇。是留下還是離開？公車站前滿是擁擠的年輕人，地鐵裡一張張疲倦的面容，訴說著真實的差距。年輕人和遊客一起在天還未亮的時刻湧進天安門廣場觀看升旗。這裡是這個國家強壯有力的心臟，卻給不出任何答案。上海，繁華的夜景如夢似幻，一位音樂學院的畢業生談起初入社會的阻力。她回憶起苦練鋼琴的歲月，父母的期待和付出彷彿還在眼前；家庭錄影帶裡，坐在鋼琴前的童年就像是一個有苦有樂的玩笑；高級早教機構裡，孩子稚嫩的臉上充滿了疑惑……新式教育將向孩子們提出嶄新的期盼，而黃浦江上夜航的船隻，已悄悄遁入幽深的黑暗。
China Gate tells the story of young Chinese fight to change their fate through studying. Right before dawn, students in Huining have already started their self-studying session; hard working youngsters have filled up the space of school ground. This is one of the most poverty-stricken counties in Western China; here people’s only hope is in education, as the way to change their social status. Therefore all their effort point towards the College Entrance Examination, the process is like going through a gate, those who pass can study at urban universities, and have the chance to build a better life. During the same winter season in Beijing, a graduate student faces a big decision. Should he keep trying to survive in the big city or get back to his countryside home? The exhausted faces at the Beijing underground seem to be revealing the truth about their distance in between. The student comes to see the flag ceremony at Tiananmen Square, where the pulsing symbol of the nation lies. However it is not giving any answer to his anxiety. Shanghai’s nightfall sparkles with its prosperity, but one graduate from Shanghai music conservatory tells her struggle of finding a place in society. The memories of handwork from early age and the high hope of parents seem like yesterday, the home video footage of her sitting in front of the piano at young age looked like a bittersweet joke. Jumping back to the present, in a playful early learning institute, it seems more like confusion appearing on these children’s face. Is this a new educational method that gives the answer to the high hopes of parents?

未完成的空間 Unfinished Spaces
美國 USA / 2011 / 86min / Alysa Nahmias, Benjamin Murray
1961年，三個有遠見的年輕建築師接受了卡斯楚和哲古華拉的任務–在位於古巴哈瓦那的高爾夫球場上建設一所古巴國家藝術學校。這些最初的設想很快付諸於實踐，學校的第一節課也隨即開堂。從全國各地到來的舞蹈家、音樂家和藝術家陶醉在優美的校園中。但是當這些富有變革性的夢想馬上要變成現實的時候，建設被迫中止，建築師和他們的設計方案被視作有傷政治風化。四十年之後學校仍在使用，但那些建築仍未完成並一直受損……
In 1961, three young, visionary architects were commissioned by Fidel Castro and Che Guevara to create Cuba’s National Art Schools on the grounds of a former golf course in Havana, Cuba. Construction of their radical designs began immediately and the school’s first classes soon followed. Dancers, musicians and artists from all over the country reveled in the beauty of the schools, but as the dream of the Revolution quickly became a reality, construction was abruptly halted and the architects and their designs were deemed irrelevant in the prevailing political climate. Forty years later the schools are in use, but remain unfinished and decaying.

「節拍攻擊」是一隊成立了十年的街舞組合，曾踏上國際街舞比賽的舞台。成員們個性強硬，對商界、娛樂界以至其他舞者都勇於批評，而旁人的推崇或不屑，他們都不放在眼內，只一心沉醉在其舞蹈中。
“Rhythm Attack” is a street dance group formed 10 years ago. They are powerful dancers and outspoken critics of businessmen, the entertainment industry and even fellow dancers. Neither do they care about praise nor disdain. They just chill and try to make a killing, B-boy style.

愛的進化論 Connected : An Autoblogography about Love, Death and Technology
美國 USA / 2011 / 82min / Tiffany SHLAIN
◎2011 Maui影展觀眾票選最佳紀錄片 Best Documentary, Maui Film Festival Audience Award
網路發展到智慧型手機的演進，通訊與科技將現代人的一切生活與文化活動，跨越時空地連結在一起。 科學一詞在希臘字源中所指即是切割，人類不斷尋找不可切割的粒子或終極答案，卻忽略了人與人、 人與自然、與世界的連結。本片充滿符號與隱喻的活潑動畫，穿插大量歷史影像、多媒體素材，呈現歷史重大事件以及當前危機。導演為文明發展提出一個省思性的回顧，同時其自身家庭成員的互動觀察及父女的溫情自白，更增添此紀錄片的感人元素。
With wonderful heart and an impressive sense of scale, Connected explores the visible and invisible connections linking major issues of our time – the environment, consumption, population growth, technology, human rights, the global economy – while searching for her place in the world during a transformative time in her life. With humor, curiosity and irony, the SHLAIN family life merges with philosophy to create both a personal portrait and a proposal for ways we can move forward as a civilization. The film proposes that after centuries of declaring independence, it may be time for us to declare our interdependence instead.

垃圾圍城Beijing Besieged by Waste
中國 China / 2010 / 83min / 王久良 WANG Jiu-liang
伴隨著城市的瘋狂擴張，會聚於城市的人口的急劇膨脹，垃圾作為人類消費過後的產物其產量也在日甚一日地增長。它們直接地傷害著我們賴以生存的環境，我們呼吸的空氣、我們飲用的水源以及我們所吃的任何食物，這些都無不隱含著垃圾的陰影。面對垃圾的威脅，我們誰也別想逃脫！從2008年10月開始，自由攝影師王久良，懷揣捉襟見肘的費用走訪了北京周邊的大型垃圾場，拍攝了10000多張照片。這些垃圾場往往有上萬平方米的規模，分佈在北京的五環和六環附近，當他在Google Earth上用黃色圖示把垃圾場所在的位置和座標標示出來時，畫面驚人地呈現出北京城被密密麻麻的垃圾場包圍的圖景。於是王久良給這個項目命名為“垃圾圍城”。
While China’s rise, and its immense challenges, commands world attention, less light has been shed upon the colossal problem of waste generated by a burgeoning population, expanding industry, and rapacious urban growth. Photographer Wang Jiuliang turns his lens upon the grim spectacle of garbage, excrement, refuse, and wreckage heaped upon the landscape that surrounds China’s mega-metropolis, Beijing. Eking out a hazardous living within are the scavengers, mostly rural migrants, who struggle to maintain familial and cultural structures amid the bleakest of occupations. Wang shows the desecration of once-vital farmlands and rivers in the shadow of China’s gleaming cities and planes and super-trains; the unholy cycle of construction’s consumption and waste, and poignant images of the daily lives of scavengers who toil at their own peril.

擁有七百萬居民的秘魯首都利馬，是某位西班牙詩人口中充滿「金屬與憂鬱的國度」。本片記錄九○年代初期，來自不同社會階級和工作領域的人們，開著自用轎車，貼上路邊小攤所叫賣的一美金「TAXI」（計程車）廉價貼紙，或兼職或全時投入計程車工作。一切全因政局混亂、官員貪瀆、恐怖主義橫行，再加上經濟衰退、通貨膨脹嚴重，小老百姓只能憑著一己的努力，在污濁的大城市中掙扎求存。全片由無數個小人物的真實故事所組成，每段故事從坐上計程車為起點，伴隨著城市沿途風光，娓娓道出人生最動人的片段。其中有警察、醫生、演員，甚至是剛畢業的中學生，或是時常被酒醉老父毆打的未婚媽媽，他們有著不同的人生選擇，不同的痛苦與掙扎，卻在簡短的片段中閃耀出人生智慧和生命韌性。
You live in Lima, a Latin-American metropolis with 7 million inhabitants, in Peru, where in the nineteen eighties and nineties the economic situation has grown increasingly hopeless. You still manage to have a job, with the salary of which you can pay for gas and electricity, but not the rent; or you have even lost your job. The only thing that hasn’t been stolen is your old car that you bought when you could still afford it. So, for a dollar you buy a sign saying “taxi”, stick it on your windscreen, and throw yourself into the Lima traffic. The competition is murderous, but the earnings, however small, are still quite worthwhile in a country where the members of the middle-classes – teachers, army officers, doctors, civil servants – earn salaries of a few hundred dollars a month. As a taxi-driving economist explains in the film: in Peru there is hardly any middles-class left. This film takes the viewer on a taxi-trip through Lima. The portraits of the drivers grow into a panorama of human fighting spirit, the many ingenious ways of survival we humans employ, of passion, pain, hope, and zest for life.

用兩種極端的經濟個體的消費經歷，帶領觀眾一同探尋台灣現有的信用卡現象：台灣第一位申請破產成功的「卡奴」鄭三和，由一開始的莫名其妙負債，到驚覺自己已欠下百萬債務，銀行的催繳與財務公司以威脅恐嚇的方法討債，令鄭三和從此墜入「以卡養卡」的無間地獄；台灣第一位成功以紅利積點從銀行獲利的「卡神」楊蕙如，以銀行紅利的漏洞，成功地串連親友集中刷卡購買機票或購物台商品，再以網拍賺取其中差額，倒賺銀行上百萬，後被銀行停止信用卡使用。同樣有過切身之痛的楊蕙如勸卡奴們要面對現實：「趕快把卡剪掉吧！因為這個利息太重了，也不要想再借什麼現金卡來還卡債，那只會讓自己愈陷愈深而已。」
The film traces the consumption experiences of two extreme individuals, and takes the audience on a tour to explore the credit card phenomena in Taiwan: ZHENG San-he, the first Taiwanese “card slave” to successfully apply for bankruptcy. Not realizing what he had gotten into at first, ZHENG was startled to find himself owing millions of Taiwan Dollars (TWD). Pressure from banks and threats from asset management companies forced ZHENG into the vicious circle of sustaining one card with another; YANG Hui-ru, the first Taiwanese “card legend”who made a killing from a loophole in the credit card point program. YANG, with help from relatives and friends, took advantage of the loophole and accumulated huge amount of points through pooling together airline and consumer goods purchases. She then sold the points through online auctions. She earned over one million TWD before her card was canceled by the bank. Speaking from her own experiences, YANG Hui-ru advised card slaves to face reality: “Cut up the cards as soon as possible. The interest rate is too heavy. And don’t you think of paying back debt with more cards. It will only make yourself fall even deeper”.

“想要了解一個城市，先去了解它的出租車司機。”這是一個很常見卻又十分具有代表性的職業。他們可能接觸的人群最多，對城市的民生最熟悉。在大中華地區具有代表性的五個大城市——北京、廣州、香港、臺北、新加坡，以及極具特點的兩個中小城市——成都、鐵嶺，近距離接觸，講述出租車司機眼中的金錢和生活。這些城市地處在中國的東西南北中，它們分別和我們傳統意義上的中國有著各種不盡相同的聯系，成為有華人城市的某種縮影。而在這些城市裏，人們如何生活，如何認識自己的生活，特別是與日常生活息息相關的金錢，不同城市之間很可能形成一種相當有趣的對照。通過相似與差異，勾勒出一個華人2007的金錢觀與生存觀。
“To learn about a city, you learn about its taxi drivers first.” This is a very common but quite representative vocation. They come to contact with the largest number of people and are most familiar with urban life. This film describes money and life in the eyes of taxi drivers in five representative metropolises in the Greater China Region—Beijing, Guangzhou, Hong Kong, Taibei and Singapore, and in two characteristic small and medium-sized cities—Chengdu and Dieling. Located in different parts in and outside of China, these cities represent different cultural traditions of China, and become a microcosm of the Chinese city. How people live in these places, what do they think of their lives and money in particular? We find a very interesting contrast among the different cities. Through similarity and discrepancy, we outline Chinese people’s views on money and life in 2007.

資本主義的陷阱 The Flaw
英國 UK / 2011 / 78min / David SINGTON
◎2011 日舞影展 Sundance Film Festival
「主導世界運作的經濟模型是有瑕疵(flaw)的 !」 此番話出自於前美國聯準會的主席格林斯潘。導演登門拜訪耶魯、哈佛等一流大學的經濟學教授、諾貝爾獎得主、基金公司創辦經理、房地產投資人等， 縱向追溯美國資本主義的發展歷程，橫向調查了金融環境的現況。當我們都畏懼著金融風暴，深知可能造成的重大危害，卻又一片迷惘的同時，本片抽絲剝繭，一步步探尋導致經濟危機的瑕疵究竟藏在何處。
Made by international award-winning documentary maker David Sington, THE FLAW tells the story of the credit bubble that caused the financial crash. Through interviews with some of the world’s leading economists, including housing expert Robert Shiller, Nobel laureate Joseph Stiglitz, and economic historian Louis Hyman, as well as Wall Street insiders and victims of the crash including Ed Andrews – a former economics correspondent for The New York Times who found himself facing foreclosure – and Andrew Luan, once a bond trader at Deutsche Bank now running his own Wall Street tour guide business, the film presents an original and compelling account of the toxic combination of forces that nearly destroyed the world economy.
The film shows how excessive income inequality in society leads to economic instability. At a time when economic theory and public policy is being re-examined this film reminds us that without addressing the root causes of the crisis the system may collapse again and next time it may not be possible for governments to rescue it.

為了經濟的騰飛卻要把原本優質的牧場變成一個又一個的露天煤礦，以畜牧為生的牧民在煤礦的夾縫中尋找著自己生存的空間。
在蒙古高原上，格日圖家抗擊著飛雪為駱駝剪駝毛、接生牛犢，餵養初生犢駝糕和羊羔，還要解決著由於煤田的開採所帶來的不便。初夏，格日圖一家賣掉了大部分的羊羔和牛，這就是他家一年的收益。弟弟寶音在為礦區出讓了草原之後從牧區來到了城鎮生活，他把馬帶到城裡的旅遊點經營旅遊生意，甚至要在房地產方面進行投資。一年一度的草原文化節開始了，哥哥家參加了賽馬，寶音和夥伴們為觀眾表演了馬術。
無論是内蒙古还是西藏，這裏是處在經濟快速發展空間的邊緣區域。在這裏，經濟發展相對滯後但同時原生態文化保留得相對完整。但是在現代化進程的強勢推動下，這些原生態文化的空間越來越小，最终将被現代文明所取代。
In the name of economic advancement, good pastureland will be turned into coalmines. The herdsmen, who rely on herding as their livelihood, must now find a different means of survival within these coalmines. In the highlands of Mongolia, against the harsh snow, the Gerituan family still tend to their camels, birth the calves, feed the livestock, and now, overcome the challenges presented by new coalmines. Each summer, the Gerituan family sells most of their livestock and makes that year’s earnings. After forking over his land for the coalmines, brother Bao-ying moves to the city with his horse and earns a living as a tour guide. He’s even considering investing in real estate. The annual Prairie Festival is about to start and the older brother enters into a horse race. Bao-ying and friends will entertain the crowd with horsemanship.

未完成的空間 Unfinished Spaces
美國 USA / 2011 / 86min / Alysa Nahmias, Benjamin Murray
1961年，三個有遠見的年輕建築師接受了卡斯楚和哲古華拉的任務–在位於古巴哈瓦那的高爾夫球場上建設一所古巴國家藝術學校。這些最初的設想很快付諸於實踐，學校的第一節課也隨即開堂。從全國各地到來的舞蹈家、音樂家和藝術家陶醉在優美的校園中。但是當這些富有變革性的夢想馬上要變成現實的時候，建設被迫中止，建築師和他們的設計方案被視作有傷政治風化。四十年之後學校仍在使用，但那些建築仍未完成並一直受損……
In 1961, three young, visionary architects were commissioned by Fidel Castro and Che Guevara to create Cuba’s National Art Schools on the grounds of a former golf course in Havana, Cuba. Construction of their radical designs began immediately and the school’s first classes soon followed. Dancers, musicians and artists from all over the country reveled in the beauty of the schools, but as the dream of the Revolution quickly became a reality, construction was abruptly halted and the architects and their designs were deemed irrelevant in the prevailing political climate. Forty years later the schools are in use, but remain unfinished and decaying.

藍綠對話實驗室 Dialogue between Blue & Green
台灣 Taiwan / 2012 / 75 min / 傅榆 FU Yue
★CNEX 監製影片
台灣的民主自由在華人世界普遍受到羨慕，與此同時，台灣的藍綠之爭卻也常讓其他華人對民主的印象蒙上一層陰影。當上一代為了藍綠意識形態吵得不可開交，新一代的台灣年輕人是如何看待藍綠？他們還會為了「藍綠問題」而水火不容嗎？透過長期對話實驗，觀察這群2012總統大選的首投族，又會產生什麼樣的化學變化？
Taiwan’s democracy is the envy of Chinese people all over the world, but when this two-party system—“blue” and “green”—get at each other’s throats, it seems to cast a dark cloud over this beacon of advancing democratization. How does the young generation feel about the political environment they’ve inherited? We gathered a group of young people from across the blue and green spectrum, a year and a half before Taiwan’s presidential election, to participate in a political dialogue.

垃圾圍城Beijing Besieged by Waste
中國 China / 2010 / 83min / 王久良 WANG Jiu-liang
伴隨著城市的瘋狂擴張，會聚於城市的人口的急劇膨脹，垃圾作為人類消費過後的產物其產量也在日甚一日地增長。它們直接地傷害著我們賴以生存的環境，我們呼吸的空氣、我們飲用的水源以及我們所吃的任何食物，這些都無不隱含著垃圾的陰影。面對垃圾的威脅，我們誰也別想逃脫！從2008年10月開始，自由攝影師王久良，懷揣捉襟見肘的費用走訪了北京周邊的大型垃圾場，拍攝了10000多張照片。這些垃圾場往往有上萬平方米的規模，分佈在北京的五環和六環附近，當他在Google Earth上用黃色圖示把垃圾場所在的位置和座標標示出來時，畫面驚人地呈現出北京城被密密麻麻的垃圾場包圍的圖景。於是王久良給這個項目命名為“垃圾圍城”。
While China’s rise, and its immense challenges, commands world attention, less light has been shed upon the colossal problem of waste generated by a burgeoning population, expanding industry, and rapacious urban growth. Photographer Wang Jiuliang turns his lens upon the grim spectacle of garbage, excrement, refuse, and wreckage heaped upon the landscape that surrounds China’s mega-metropolis, Beijing. Eking out a hazardous living within are the scavengers, mostly rural migrants, who struggle to maintain familial and cultural structures amid the bleakest of occupations. Wang shows the desecration of once-vital farmlands and rivers in the shadow of China’s gleaming cities and planes and super-trains; the unholy cycle of construction’s consumption and waste, and poignant images of the daily lives of scavengers who toil at their own peril.

天還未亮，縣城高中的學生們已經在苦讀，偌大的操場上滿是奮發努力的年輕人。這是中國西部的貧困縣城，無數的學生和家長把希望投向教育，為的是改變自己的人生。所有的努力都是為了面對最終的高考，這就像是一道大門。通過考試，一些人能邁進新的人生，走進城市的大學。
北京，陰冷的初冬時節。一位來自農村的大學畢業生面臨一次重大的抉擇。
是留下還是離開？公車站前滿是擁擠的年輕人，地鐵裡一張張疲倦的面容，訴說著真實的差距。年輕人和遊客一起在天還未亮的時刻湧進天安門廣場觀看升旗。這裡是這個國家強壯有力的心臟，卻給不出任何答案。
上海，繁華的夜景如夢似幻，一位音樂學院的畢業生談起初入社會的阻力。
她回憶起苦練鋼琴的歲月，父母的期待和付出彷彿還在眼前；家庭錄影帶裡，坐在鋼琴前的童年就像是一個有苦有樂的玩笑；高級早教機構裡，孩子稚嫩的臉上充滿了疑惑……新式教育將向孩子們提出嶄新的期盼，而黃浦江上夜航的船隻，已悄悄遁入幽深的黑暗。
China Gate tells the story of young Chinese fight to change their fate through studying. Right before dawn, students in Huining have already started their self-studying session; hard working youngsters have filled up the space of school ground. This is one of the most poverty-stricken counties in Western China; here people’s only hope is in education, as the way to change their social status. Therefore all their effort point towards the College Entrance Examination, the process is like going through a gate, those who pass can study at urban universities, and have the chance to build a better life. During the same winter season in Beijing, a graduate student faces a big decision. Should he keep trying to survive in the big city or get back to his countryside home? The exhausted faces at the Beijing underground seem to be revealing the truth about their distance in between. The student comes to see the flag ceremony at Tiananmen Square, where the pulsing symbol of the nation lies. However it is not giving any answer to his anxiety. Shanghai’s nightfall sparkles with its prosperity, but one graduate from Shanghai music conservatory tells her struggle of finding a place in society. The memories of handwork from early age and the high hope of parents seem like yesterday, the home video footage of her sitting in front of the piano at young age looked like a bittersweet joke. Jumping back to the present, in a playful early learning institute, it seems more like confusion appearing on these children’s face. Is this a new educational method that gives the answer to the high hopes of parents?

資本主義的陷阱 The Flaw
英國 UK / 2011 / 78min / David SINGTON
◎2011 日舞影展 Sundance Film Festival
「主導世界運作的經濟模型是有瑕疵(flaw)的 !」 此番話出自於前美國聯準會的主席格林斯潘。導演登門拜訪耶魯、哈佛等一流大學的經濟學教授、諾貝爾獎得主、基金公司創辦經理、房地產投資人等， 縱向追溯美國資本主義的發展歷程，橫向調查了金融環境的現況。當我們都畏懼著金融風暴，深知可能造成的重大危害，卻又一片迷惘的同時，本片抽絲剝繭，一步步探尋導致經濟危機的瑕疵究竟藏在何處。
Today, a question haunts America: what exactly caused the world’s greatest economy to crash and burn? And why is it so slow to recover? In The Flaw Sundance award-winning documentary filmmaker David SINGTON sets out to find the answer.

藍綠對話實驗室 Dialogue between Blue & Green
台灣 Taiwan / 2012 / 75 min / 傅榆 FU Yue
★CNEX 監製影片
★香港首映 HK Premiere
台灣的民主自由在華人世界普遍受到羨慕，與此同時，台灣的藍綠之爭卻也常讓其他華人對民主的印象蒙上一層陰影。當上一代為了藍綠意識形態吵得不可開交，新一代的台灣年輕人是如何看待藍綠？他們還會為了「藍綠問題」而水火不容嗎？透過長期對話實驗，觀察這群2012總統大選的首投族，又會產生什麼樣的化學變化？
Taiwan’s democracy is the envy of Chinese people all over the world, but when this two-party system—“blue” and “green”—get at each other’s throats, it seems to cast a dark cloud over this beacon of advancing democratization. How does the young generation feel about the political environment they’ve inherited? We gathered a group of young people from across the blue and green spectrum, a year and a half before Taiwan’s presidential election, to participate in a political dialogue.
