《YP1967》放映會及映後談

【YP1967】
Directed by Can TO │Written by Jenny LEE

＊獲London International Filmmaker Festival 2018年度最佳電影提名＊

1967年4月位於新蒲崗的香港人造花廠發生勞資糾紛，工人不滿廠方的新規定和廠方談判，談判破裂，群情洶湧，防暴警察介入，最終爆發了長達八個月的六七暴動，導致最少51人喪生，近2, 000人被定罪。

事件從罷工、示威，發展至後期涉及左派使用暴力，在市區裡放置炸彈，造成無辜市民的傷亡，對整個社會做成極大創傷，但由於背景錯綜複雜，牽連甚廣，中英雙方事後刻意淡化和低調處理，所以縱使事隔五十年，歷史的傷痕仍然深深烙在不少人的身上。

當年有一群未成年的年輕工人和學生，在紛陳擾攘的時代響應左派領導層的號召「反英抗暴」，派發傳單、掛標語、參與集會，最後鋃鐺入獄，為履行心中信念而承受沉重代價，刑事案底如鬼魅般伴隨終老，人生的軌跡徹底被改變。

五十年倏忽一過，六七記憶徘徊在難忘和遺忘之間。電車、學校、工會、監獄、墓地，景物猶在，有人堅持平理，有人難以啟齒，有人仍困惑，或已不在乎。他們的視覺交叉匯集起來，見證了香港歷史的高低跌宕。
