剧情介绍
冬天，蒂妲絲雲頓拜訪落腳於法國小山村四十餘年的好友約翰伯格，兩人漫步於靄靄白雪的村莊、或深或淺地，在小屋中聊起童年記憶與歷史承接。春天，透過凝視動物，經歷一場人類與動物關係的思辨。夏天，於山村中和三兩藝術家漫談當代政治，佐以舊時影片、音樂，探索藝術如何述說政治。秋天，蒂妲再度帶著孩子拜訪約翰以及約翰之子，在視野遼闊的山村生活中，發現傳承的意念存在於所觀看的每一片風景。四部短片象徵四季的更迭，而山村的風景、動物、生活則是年復一年的循環，體現約翰口中「無窮延伸的此時此刻」。他的思想及人生觀與古老的農舍、青翠的綠地、放牧的牛群相呼相應，說著這個世界周遭人物景物的故事，阿爾卑斯山裡的小村莊，則是最迷人的舞台。（以上來自2016台北金馬影展）TheSeasonsinQuincyisafeature-lengthdocumentaryfilminfourpartsbytheDerekJarmanLabatBirkbeck,incollaborationwithTildaSwinton,ChristopherRothandColinMacCabe.Together,thepartsconstituteafilmportraitofJohnBerger,theBritishwriterandthinker.In1973BergerabandonedthemetropolistoliveinthetinyAlpinevillageofQuincy.Herealizedthatsubsistencepeasantfarming,whichhadsustainedhumanityformillennia,wasdrawingtoanhistoricalclose.Hedeterminedtospendtherestofhislifebearingwitnesstothisvanishingexistence,notleastbyparticipatinginit.Berger’strilogyIntotheirLabourschroniclesthepeasantlifeofthisAlpinevillageanditssurroundingcountryside.OurportraitplacesBergerintherhythmoftheseasonsinQuincy.ThefourpartsofthefilmeachaddressdifferentstrandsofBerger'slifeandwork.Thefirst,WaysofListening,directedbyColinMacCabe,dealswithfathersandfriendship.Spring,directedbyChristopherRoth,considersBerger'swritingonourrelationshipwithanimalsinjuxtapositionwiththeanimalsthatsurroundhimintheHauteSavoie.ASongforPolitics,directedbyColinMacCabeandBartekDziadosz,reflectsonpoliticsthroughaconversationbetweenBerger,ColinMacCabe,BenLerner,AkshiSinghandChristopherRoth.Thelastpart,Harvest,directedbyTildaSwinton,revisitsQuincytomeditateonbelongingandcontinuitywithJohnandhissonYves.來自http://www.jarmanlab.org/the-seasons-in-quincy-four-portraits-of-john-berger.html 展开全部
