晨夢 The Dawn Dreams

萬仁 WAN Jen｜臺灣 Taiwan｜1979｜DCP｜Colour｜4min

★1979 金穗獎最佳16mm短片

異國窗明几淨的公寓裡，一名東方女子在清晨做夢。夢中，她與西洋臉孔的男子在公園碰面。女子醒來後，發現男子正在公寓收拾行李。女子突然起心動念，拿起刀刺殺男子。鬧鐘滴答作響，時間卻未曾前進。

結合驚悚懸疑聲響、西洋歌曲，《晨夢》以潛意識與現實交錯情節詮釋人類晨間夢境，是萬仁在八○年代走向新電影寫實風格前，早期創作取向截然不同的短篇力作。

★1979 Best 16mm Short, Golden Harvest Awards

In an exotic bright and clean apartment, an oriental woman is dreaming at dawn. In the dream, she meets a western-looking man in a park. She wakes up to find him packing up in the apartment. On the spur of the moment, she stabs him with a knife. The clock tick-tocks, but time stands still.

Combining thriller and suspense music with western songs, The Dawn Dream presents humans’ morning dreams with a plot interweaving subconscious and reality. This film is a powerful early work that demonstrates a different side of WAN before he adopted New Wave Realism in the 80s.

迷惘 Bewilder

萬仁 WAN Jen｜臺灣 Taiwan｜1981｜DCP｜Colour｜21min

★1981 金穗獎優等16mm長片

電話鈴聲響起，劃破無人接聽的情慾空間。在夢裡，男子與慾望不停交戰，直到自瀆後，自我終於一分為二，慾望也得以流動。

《迷惘》以實驗手法表現出挑釁的性政治，透過慾望的隱與顯，轉喻了壓抑的本我主體。影像直揭個人的私密情慾與真實內心，成為臺灣新電影前的一次勇敢嘗試。

★1981 Excellent 16mm Feature Film, Golden Harvest Awards

The phone rings, breaking the silence of the arena of desire where no one picks up. While dreaming, a man battles his lust until he masturbates. His ego divides into two and his desire is finally given free flow.

Bewilder expresses overt sexual politics with an experimental approach. Through the emergence and submergence of desire, the film serves as a metonymy for the repressed subjectivity of the id. The images directly reveal a person’s secret lust and inner truth. It is undoubtedly a bold attempt preceding the Taiwan New Wave.

迷林 Labyrinthine Forest

柯一正 KO I-cheng｜臺灣 Taiwan｜1981｜DCP ｜Colour｜22min

★1981 金穗獎16mm長片佳作

登山男子失足跌入神秘森林，恍惚間有一白衣女性來到眼前，他既受吸引，又欲逃離，如此循環反覆，晝夜交替，找不到出口的他逐漸憔悴老去，迷失在山林與歲月裡。

有評論認為本片乃婚姻譬喻，或說女子更似行蹤難料的繆思，創作者只能在生命林間原地打轉，周而復始追尋靈光。全片無對白，以充滿象徵的情節及音畫實驗呈現受困心境。一段以疊印、負像與運鏡表現的迷幻夢境，已可窺見日後作者的實驗型態。

★1981 Special Mention 16mm Feature Film, Golden Harvest Awards

On a mountain climbing trip, a man falls into a mysterious forest. In a trance, he beholds a woman in white approaching. Tempted to stay but yearns to escape, he repeats this cycle day and night. Failing to locate the exit, he gradually wanes and ages, finding himself lost both in the forest and in time.

Some critics view the film as a metaphor for marriage; while some see the female protagonist as an inscrutable muse. The filmmaker can only go around in circles in the forest of life, searching for moments of inspiration. Without dialogue, the film conveys the sense of entrapment with a story full of symbolism and audiovisual experiments. A mesmerizing dream composed of superimposed, negative images, and camera movements foretells the filmmaker's later experimental style.

水之絕 The End of Flow

柯一正 KO I-cheng｜臺灣 Taiwan｜ 1981｜ DCP｜Colour｜8min

★1981 金穗獎16mm短片佳作

少婦在陰暗房間遊走，情慾與暴力交織成幻想的羅網。在情人、丈夫與孩子之間，受虐的痛苦記憶不停湧現，她拿起剃刀割腕，最終在彌留時刻，逃逸的陰性力量又被男性霸權召回。

同年創作的《迷惘》（萬仁導演執導）與《水之絕》分別描繪了男性／女性潛意識能量，電話鈴聲成為外在現實及私密個人結界的通道，連接或隔絕的慾望場域亦形成有趣的對照。

★1981 Special Mention 16mm Short Film, Golden Harvest Awards

A young wife paces around a dark room. Lust and violence interweave into a fantastical web. Loitering between her lover, husband, and child, her painful memories of abuse continue to emerge. She cuts her wrist with a razor. In her final moments, the wayward feminine powers are recalled once again by patriarchy.

Made in the same year, WAN Jen’s Bewilder and The End of Flow respectively captured the male and female subconscious energy. Ringtones become the tunnel to connect the exterior reality and the intimate personal experience. The connected or separated arenas of desire are curiously juxtaposed.

生命線 Cy

曾壯祥 TSENG Chuang-hsiang｜臺灣 Taiwan｜1982｜DCP ｜B&W｜13min

★1983 金穗獎優等16mm劇情片

男孩在同學笑語間聽聞手相的秘密，他凝視過短的生命線，青春滲入死亡憂懼。黑白影像壓抑且憂鬱，交錯著對生命盡頭的焦慮和逝世至親的回憶。時間如駛經小鎮的火車急速前行，對生之欲求迫使男孩向前奔去、擺脫命運。本片為導演在美求學的畢業製作，劇本雛型來自王文興短篇小說〈命運的迹線〉。

★1983 Excellent 16mm Narrative, Golden Harvest Awards

Chattering school boys first learn of the secret of palm reading. They stare at the overly short lifeline, all of a sudden, the fear of death seeps into their youth. The black and white images exude repression and melancholia, mixed with the angst for mortality and the memory of deceased loved ones. Time flies by like the train speeding past town. With the desire to live, the boys run forward, attempting to break free from destiny.

This is TSENG’s graduation film for his US degree. The story is based on WANG Wen-hsing’s novella Line of Fate.

妄念 Mind

石昌杰 C. Jay SHIH｜臺灣 Taiwan ｜ 1982｜ DCP｜Colour｜3min

★1983 金穗獎最佳8mm動畫片

小人偶的靈光乍現，動手做卻怎麼都不滿意，不停修改直到最後反被創作物操控、制服。創造性的開始卻出現意想不到的結局，原有主體性的人反變成了物。本片是導演學生時期首部作品，不僅展現出創作者面對自我內在困境的掙扎，及慾望不斷擴大而改變原初的純粹，也傳達日後作品中以小我對抗外在困境及挑戰的母題。「這是兩個年輕人對創作的反省。所謂的靈感，究竟是靈感還是妄念？超乎想像的靈感很可能失控，演變成反噬人類的災難。」——石昌杰

★1983 Best 8mm Animated Film, Golden Harvest Awards

Creatively inspired, but the puppet can’t seem to execute his ideas. After repeatedly revising, he finds himself dominated by his creation instead. A creative beginning results in an unexpected ending. The subjective “human” becomes the object.

This is the director’s first film as a student. It not only expresses the artist’s inner conflict when facing oneself but also illustrates how an ever-growing hunger would alter the initial intention. Moreover, it foretells the recurring theme in SHIH’s later works – facing external adversity and challenges by one’s self. “This is a reflection on the creative work by two young men. Is the so-called ‘inspiration’ in fact a delusion? Inspiration beyond the bounds of imagination could prove to be uncontrollable, and beget a disaster that consumes humans.” - SHIH
