简介
【YP1967】
Directed by Can TO │Written by Jenny LEE
*获London International Filmmaker Festival 2018年度最佳电影提名*
1967年4月位于新蒲岗的香港人造花厂发生劳资纠纷,工人不满厂方的新规定和厂方谈判,谈判破裂,群情汹湧,防暴警察介入,最终爆发了长达八个月的六七暴动,导致最少51人丧生,近2, 000人被定罪。
事件从罢工、示威,发展至后期涉及左派使用暴力,在市区里放置炸弹,造成无辜市民的伤亡,对整个社会做成极大创伤,但由于背景错综复杂,牵连甚广,中英双方事后刻意淡化和低调处理,所以纵使事隔五十年,历史的伤痕仍然深深烙在不少人的身上。
当年有一群未成年的年轻工人和学生,在纷陈扰攘的时代响应左派领导层的号召「反英抗暴」,派发传单、挂标语、参与集会,最后锒铛入狱,为履行心中信念而承受沉重代价,刑事案底如鬼魅般伴随终老,人生的轨迹彻底被改变。
五十年倏忽一过,六七记忆徘徊在难忘和遗忘之间。电车、学校、工会、监狱、墓地,景物犹在,有人坚持平理,有人难以启齿,有人仍困惑,或已不在乎。他们的视觉交叉汇集起来,见证了香港历史的高低跌宕。
