发现自我之旅

 

故事梗概:
来自近60个同志原创作品的精选集,有深沉珍贵的分手纪念, 细腻浪漫的爱情色彩,朴实安静的单身独白,潇洒摇滚风的酷儿宣言……各种同志视角,都是一个人赤裸裸的心声,一段无法忘却的经历,勇敢的在大屏幕上宣告幸福,原谅过去,挑战你的共鸣。
“只要站在阳光下,你就会有影子。”
“当年我们说,我们不是同性恋……我们会开玩笑,想象彼此未来的爱情,却不敢承认,我们拥有的就是爱情。”
“实在走不动了,就进拉拉老人院,仰望着天空,回想着过往,发呆。”
“女马的特征是在白色制服里绑上白色或肉色的鞍具……只差一条鞭子就可以尽情驾驭她们,她们既然受骗,傻乎乎的穿上”

 

Synopsis:
Selected shorts from a collection of 60 original videos made by LGBT people. Stories range from soulful reflections on broken hearts, to youthful proclamations of queer identity, from the quiet affirmation of single life, to moving memories of first love… They showcase the diversity of queer perspectives, as each filmmaker opens up her life and bravely shares an unforgettable experience on the big screen. Through their unfeigned voices, the past is forgiven, the future is celebrated, and your honesty is absolutely demanded.

 

“As long as you stand in the sunlight, you will have a shadow.”

 

“Back then, we said we weren’t gay… we’d laugh and imagine who we’d fall in love with when we got older, but we didn’t dare to admit that what we already had then was love.”

 

“And when I can’t keep going anymore, I’ll go to a lesbian nursing home. There I will spend my days watching the sky, reminiscing about the past.”

 

“These female horses are characterized by the white or pale saddles tied inside white uniforms… only a whip is needed to ride any of them. Somehow they are fooled into wearing them.”

导演简历
创始人黄阿娜毕业于哈佛大学性别研究系,在2010年初发起了发现自我之旅,旨在填补国内同志社区的一个空缺,为拉拉提供一个发现自我的空间,通过新媒体创作提高自我认同与社会可见度。她也是华人拉拉联盟的组委会委员。

Bio-filmography of Director:
Ana Huang graduated from Harvard College with a major in Women’s Studies. She established the Lala Digital Storytelling Workshops in 2010, hoping to create a space for the Chinese lala community to tell their stories and find empowerment through the innovative use of new media. She also serves on the executive committee of the Chinese Lala Alliance.

导演阐述:
“发现自我之旅视频工作坊”是一个以社群为基础的非营利组织,努力通过培训媒体技术,倡导同志人群自由表达。通过深入为期三天的工作坊,每位参加者用录音、音乐和照片等形式,创作一个讲述个人经历的视频短片。工作坊提供支持,以及良好的团队环境,使得参与者可以更投入地进行创造性的个人表达。讲故事和制作视频的过程本身就是一个心灵治疗的有益经验,而视频作品则更给大众呈现出对性少数人群的真实写照。截至2011年5月已完成六十多个作品,也成为了中国同志人群丰富的口述史。

Director’s Statement:
Lala Digital Storytelling Workshops is a community-based, non-profit organization that seeks to empower LGBT people in China through media skills and personal expression. Through intensive 3-day workshops, each participant creates a short video of their personal experiences using voiceover, music, and photos. The workshops provide technical instruction and an encouraging group environment where participants can express their stories creatively. The storytelling and production process serve as a therapeutic and rewarding experience for participants, while the videos produced bring authentic portrayals of marginalized lives to the public. Almost 60 videos have been created to date, forming a rich collection of Chinese LGBT oral history.
