艺术家武老白，乘坐三辆带着抗议扭转治疗标语的红色卡车，在不同城市的街头巡游，在此过程中也拜访不同的扭转治疗机构。本影片纪录了三辆红色卡车在城市行驶过程中所遭遇到的问题，并如实记录了部分精神医师对扭转治疗的看法。影片同时也向我们展示了艺术家在面对公共议题时的工作方法，当联结成为一种可能，会带来更多的改变吗？

Artist Wu Laobai, in three red trucks with slogans protesting against conversion therapy, toured on the streets of different cities, visiting various conversion therapy organizations in the process. The film documents the problems encountered by the three red trucks as they traveled through the city, as well as the views of some psychiatrists on conversion therapy. The film also shows us the way artists work when confronted with a public issue: when connection becomes a possibility, will it bring about more change?

武老白，艺术家。1990年出生于中国北方。武老白关注社会边缘群体的权益及遭遇，其艺术实践多通过社会参与式艺术、交叉学科协作关系介入公共议题。实践方法不囿于田野走访、纪录片拍摄、戏剧展演、工作坊等形式，最终朝向超越美术馆性质的场域，进入更为广泛的公共空间。他游走于艺术家和行动者之间，现生活于中国南方。他近几年参与并发起多个社会性艺术实践项目，包括但不限于：2015-2016年，创作了描述西安公园人群生态的独立摄影出版物《兴庆宫》，并入围第七届侯登科纪实摄影奖；2016-2017年，在广州发起关注无人认领死亡的项目《死亡身份证》，通过多方面的协作，探讨了三起死亡事件，并入围第二届圈子艺术青年奖；2018-2019年，面对中国大陆同性恋扭转治疗现象，联合同志警察、多个同志平权机构发起《恋人》项目，调研整理了96家仍在做扭转治疗的机构，并以三辆印制着“同志权益问题”的红色卡车游走了大陆的6座城市。《恋人》项目得到许多国内外媒体的关注，使扭转治疗问题再次在大陆引起讨论；2020年，新冠疫情初期，联合不同友人协作《新冠肺炎互助手册》，得到大量传播；同年四月，为纪念因新冠去世的人，联合艺术家李佳宝共同发起并建立《未完成的告别》网站。

Wu Laobai (Wu Qiong), works as an artist. Born in 1990 in Northern China, he was concerned about marginal groups’ rights and what they have been through. Through socially engaged art and transdisciplinary collaboration, his art practices could evolve into a public topic. Methods such as field research, documentary filming, theatrical performances, workshops, etc are used through his practices which is expected to go beyond the artistic space (such as museum) and towards a broader public space. He twists the roles of artist and activist, currently living in Southern China. Recently, he has participated in and initiated several social art practice projects, such as: 2015 – 2016, he self-published Xingqing Palace, an independent photographic publication documenting the human ecology in Xi’an Park, which was also shortlisted for the 7th Hou Dengke Documentary Photography Award; 2016 – 2017, he initiated Death ID, a project focusing on unclaimed deaths in Guangzhou, through transdisciplinary collaboration to raise the awareness of public by three cases. The project also was shortlisted for the 2nd Circle Art Youth Award; 2018 – 2019, facing the phenomenon of gay “conversion therapy” in mainland China, he collaborated with the gay police and several gay affirmative organizations to launch the Lovers Project, researched on 96 conversion therapy organizations, Then he traveled with three red trucks printed with gay rights relevant words through 6 cities in mainland. The Lovers Project was supported by many domestic and international organizations, medias, raising the awareness and the discussion of gender right; In 2020, at the beginning of the COVID-19, Wu jointly edited the  COVID-19 Aid Manual, which was then wide-spreaded; April 2022, to commemorate those who died of COVID-19, the Unfinished Farewell website was co-sponsored and established with artist Li Jia Bao

《恋人》是一个针对中国同性扭转“治疗”的项目，由艺术家武老白和同志警察林壑共同发起。他们采用由电影《三块广告牌》启发而来的创造性传播方式，让被遮蔽掉的声音进一步被听见。他们与中国多个平权组织、心理咨询师及相关从业者共同协作，根据《中国精神疾病诊断与分类系统第三版》（CCMD-3）及世界卫生组织的声明，提炼出三句话，并分别印制在三辆红色货车上，从上海出发,沿途拜访已被证实在做扭转“治疗”的机构。

因缺乏项目资金，我们以20元一公里的形式向网友众筹，在213天的时间里，共有810人参与“彩虹路径”，最终筹得42269.6元，组成了一条长约2113.45公里的抗议路径。在此期间，三辆货车共前往了六座城市，拜访了9家医疗机构。

Lovers is an art project to reveal the situation of homosexual “treatment” in China, which was initiated by artist Wu Laobai and a gay policeman named Lin He. Inspired by the American movie Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri ，it applies a creative way to speak up for the voiceless.

By working with several LGBT rights organization, counselors and people in the community, as well as comparing CCMD-3 with the W.H.O.’s declaration on LGBTI people, Wu and Lin extracted three sentences, that are “Treating an ‘illness’ that does not exist”, “’Sexual orientation disorder’ still exists in CCMD-3”, “19 years has past, why is that?”, and printed the three sentences respectively on three red vans. Started from Shanghai, they began their journey of ground visits to the medical institutions that claimed themselves could “cure” homosexuality.

Due to the lack of funding for the project, we are crowdfunding from netizens in the form of 20 yuan per kilometer, during the 213 days, 810 people donated 42269.6 yuan, and the three vans traveled 6 cities and Wu Laobai visited 9 medical institutions in person.
