木牆被刻畫嘎然作響,縱使是模糊、死寂的樣貌。而這一橫一豎,一時一日地累積是恐懼也是良心犯允諾活下去的希望。
EP.33一窺學生製作的拍攝現場〡專訪《母親的呼喚》導演林治文
南方影展藝術總監.黃柏喬、影展人員.楊珂溦〡25min〡28 OCT 2020
《母親的呼喚》是林治文導演就讀北藝大電影系期間的作品,題材源自一次在綠島拍攝政治犯紀錄片的經驗,帶給他衝擊和愧疚。製作前大量考據白色恐怖史料,與團隊的密切溝通,使他對導演身分感觸良多。即將去當兵的他,也很珍惜學生擁有的資源與創作自由度。
「當我看到越多史料,發現自己越難為劇本下任何的設定與判斷,口述歷史經常各說各話...我認為歷史題材的故事,很難用快速的時間寫出來,也許這份史料判定某個人犯了罪,在下一份史料中又被推翻,這是前期寫劇本時遇到最多的問題。」- 林治文
