鸡年大奸情

　　无数次的灾难与战争，让人类的数量锐减，似乎也因此使得宇宙变得更加宁静。而今人工智能机器人已在宇宙间占有绝对的统治地位，人类却只有两成左右。虽然科学极大进步，可惜人类无法突破寿命的百年限定，他们匆匆而来，默默而终，不知不觉走向灭亡。　　带有浓重昭和气息的宇宙飞船中，生活着编号为722的人形机器人铃木洋子（神乐坂惠 饰）。她与AI机器人相伴，永远奔波在漫长的宇宙旅途中。她的日常百无聊赖，洗衣服、缝扣子、剪指甲、打扫卫生，孤独与静寂永无止境。洋子是一名宇宙快递员，她所投递的货物却都是些看似无关紧要的小物件。每次投递需要花费数年时间，纵使瞬间旅行已成可能，不过她却似乎有什么理由消磨这漫长的时光。一颗孤独的星球上，仿佛被全宇宙所遗忘的人类，在破败的街道上等待着远方的造访……

　　获得第24届圣丹斯电影节剧情片类评委会大奖的《雷管》，讲述的是四位合作者出于兴趣发明了一台查错仪器，却意外地发现这台仪器拥有强大的商业价值，最终四人相互争斗的局面。《雷管》是导演什恩-卡鲁斯(ShaneCaruth)首次执导的剧情长片，该片由他自己投资，并身兼编剧、导演、主演数职，体现出独立电影的“DIY”精神。另外，令人津津乐道的是该片不足7000美元的超低制作成本，只相当于一辆富康车的价钱……

　　未来巴黎，阶层鸿沟割裂都市。超脑Alma执掌秩序，其创造者暴毙后，警探萨利亚联手泽姆揭开颠覆割裂世界的惊天谜团。

Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
