故事梗概 Synopsis

“亲爱的三郎,这是我们决定分手后的第一天。我以为这一天会和以往一样没有什么不同,但又感觉真的有了很大的不同。”—— 坤

这是一个只有两个人完成的片子。

这也是一个执念,一种仪式感,执着于这个片子只属于两个人。

“Dear Ming, It’s the first day since we broke up. I thought this day would be no different than before, but then again it really feels so different.”— Kun

This is a film that was done by only two people.

It’s also an obsession of mine, an obsession that this film belongs to only two people. It’s like a ritual to complete the film, from the beginning to the end.

导演介绍 Director Biography

李林坤,一个自由的北漂,从事影视和戏剧行业,一直在做影视和戏剧互为跨界结合的探索者。从前期的演员、摄影,到幕后的导演、配音、剪辑,再到剧场里的影像设计,尚未停止折腾。

Linkun Li. A free-lance, living in Beijing, working in the post-production and theatre industry. He is exploring the crossover between film and theatre, from acting and cinematography in the early stages, to directing, dubbing and editing behind the scenes, to being an image designer in the theatre. He has yet to stop tossing and turning.

导演阐述 Director Statement

关于《第一天》这个片子:

其实分手或者没分手,每一天都还是每一天。它和昨天没什么不同,只是我们觉得它不同。人的孤独,也是日复一日的重复罢了。片子最初的构想并不是关于分手,只是想拍一个我和演员我们两个人的故事。片子从演员到拍摄都只有两个人,可以说是一种奇怪的执念,即便有困难,也很庆幸是两个人一同克服的。通过跟拍和记录演员他的生活日常来积累最早的素材,并在这个过程中才逐渐有了故事的雏形,然后在不同的情感试验中完善了故事并跟进拍摄去完成影片。这其实是一个会注入很多当下主观感受的过程。最后我发现,一个人,是孤独的;两个人在一起,那便是两个人的孤独。

Something about “Take Yourself Home”:

The truth is that every day is still every day, whether we break up or not. It is no different from yesterday, only that we think it is different. The loneliness of human beings is just a repetition of day after day. The original idea of the film was not about a break-up, it’s just that I wanted to make a story about me and the actor, the two of us. The film was shot with just two people, from the cast to the shoot, which can be described as a strange obsession, and when the difficulties came up, I’m glad it was two people who overcame them together. By following the daily life of the actor, I accumulate material at first. And in the process, I gradually develop a script, which we then refine in different emotional experiments and follow up with filming to complete the film. This is a process that infuses a lot of current feelings. In the end, I realized that one person is alone; two persons together is two person’s loneliness.
