一大早醒來看到這個消息瞬間清醒,《十年》、《幻愛》香港導演周冠威的反送中紀錄片《#時代革命》Revolution of Our Times 入選本屆坎城影展特別放映單元,主辦方高度保密至最後一刻才宣布,此舉為必要保護措施,除了為該片的世界首映之外,也安排於三部中國影片公開放映完畢後對外公開,幾乎可以說是坎城近年來最大膽的舉動,且後續影響難以預估。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
「Well, once there was only dark. If you ask me, the light's winning.」
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
坎城今年放映片單所關注的議題是遍地開花,包括南非面臨的危機、氣候變遷、多元與平等,卻都不如香港現狀般敏感。外媒的砲火攻勢猛烈,The Hollywood Reporter 形容他們投下了一顆震撼彈,Variety 則認為是一場外交豪賭。據說周三時,大會 email 告知國際媒體將臨時加入一部記錄片驚喜場(surprise documentary),稍早也有一小群約莫十位的電影記者受邀參與一場秘密放映,但並未事先行透露其他資訊,也是直到此刻,多數人才知道有這部《時代革命》紀錄片的存在。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
立場新聞整理,《時代革命》這部長達兩個半小時的紀錄片以 1986 年中英就香港問題達成共識為開端,及後詳述 2019 年的反修例運動。電影捕捉七組人物反抗中國政權的故事,這七組人既有前線亦有「和理非」(和平、理性、非暴力的簡稱,香港民主派的常用術語,後來成為泛民主派的核心價值)。抗爭過程自 2019 年六月中開始,提及諸多重要事件,如佔領立法會、7・21、一所大學的警民衝突,在這所大學,周冠威睡了三天兩夜,最後以去年的香港國安法實施作結。據說這七組人包括一名 73 歲的「守護孩子行動」務農成員、一名以直播著名的女性網路記者,一組提供抗爭一手情報及協調「家長車」的網民,一名高中義務急救員,一組大學生,一名年輕「勇武派」抗爭者,以及一名帶領二十人小隊的前線抗爭者,後者最後逃到台灣。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
「過去五十年來,香港人持續為自由民主奮鬥,尚未成功,在 2019 年,中國的引渡條例開啟了潘朵拉的盒子,將香港變為對抗中國極權統治的戰場。」
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
導演強調,《時代革命》是為了講出這場抗爭行動的真實故事而生,從宏觀的歷史背景以及前線的個體經驗切入。香港 01 寫道,周冠威兩年來一直秘密製作紀錄片,理大事件的三天兩夜期間受水炮車的藍色水劑擊中,至少被一枚橡膠子彈擊中頭盔;之後剪輯期間曾數次痛哭至無法工作,數度夢見被警方追捕。今年春天向坎城寄出紀錄片初版,得知有特別放映的機會,六月底才將最終修訂版寄至坎城,期間將未剪輯的片段,送到其他地區存放。為保護出現在片中的人們與相關人士,絕大多數都採用化名,製片是「Dear Bros」,片尾的製作名單則為「By Hongkongers」,周冠威更進一步表達自己的感謝:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
「我想要對坎城至上最深的感激之情,能夠在這裡,在坎城,迎來《時代革命》的世界首映 —— 一部關於香港人奮鬥歷程的電影,並受到不小的關注,是我們莫大的榮耀。香港這一走路來失去的一切超乎任何人想像,這個好消息會是所有活在恐懼之中的香港人的安慰。同時也顯示,世界各處所有為正義與自由奮鬥的人都與香港同在,而且香港人會繼續堅持下去。」
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
The Hollywood Reporter 指出,其實坎城影展這一路來面對不少各國的政治糾紛,伊朗導演 Jafar Panahi、俄國導演 Kirill Serebrennikov,都在其電影放映時身陷囹圄,無法到場參與。然而,香港卻在過去兩年來贏得不少盟友,因為北京政府運用自身影響力,壓迫所有支持香港民主抗爭的企業或名人,導致許多人不滿。2019 年,NBA 在中國禁播,只因火箭隊的總經理 Daryl Morey 發了一則、七個字的 Twitter 支持香港,「Fight for Freedom. Stand with Hong Kong」。再者,同年八月,迪士尼真人電影《花木蘭》的女主角劉亦菲引發全球性抵制,因為她公開聲援香港警察鎮壓抗議人士的暴力行為。但是,重點在迪士尼的態度,他們在美國支持所有社會運動,包括 Black Lives Matter 等等,卻對香港的民主議題保持緘默,許多分析解釋,這個娛樂帝國不會任由自己的上海迪士尼樂園這隻金雞母遭受任何危機。諸如此類的大事件,外媒順時一一點明,鉅細靡遺列出了金馬獎風波,發生沒多久的香港蘋果日報,以及香港電影審查條例。
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
當然,坎城影展主辦單位還未發布相關解釋,但 Variety 猜測,會做出這麼大膽的行為,極有可能肇因於高層 Thierry Fremaux 與 Christian Jeune 曾在抗爭期間前往香港,親自走過了遍地磚瓦的街道,他們也是這場關乎電影的戰爭的痛苦見證者。
同時也有12部Youtube影片,追蹤數超過36萬的網紅升旗易得道,也在其Youtube影片中提到,《612兩週年倫敦大遊行》參與者高呼口號Fight for freedom, Stand with Hong Kong...

OPINION REVIEW & OUTLOOK
Honoring Jimmy Lai
In Hong Kong, a valiant attempt to keep publishing the truth.
By The Editorial Board
June 21, 2021 12:02 am ET
The Committee to Protect Journalists was founded 40 years ago to fight for journalists who are “attacked, imprisoned or killed.” In this spirit, the CPJ on Monday announced it is honoring Hong Kong’s Jimmy Lai with its 2021 Gwen Ifill Press Freedom Award. Mr. Lai, the founder, owner and contributor to the Apple Daily newspaper, won’t be able to accept the award in person because he sits in prison in Hong Kong.
The CPJ honor comes after another police raid on the newsroom last week. Five Apple Daily execs were arrested, and two—editor-in-chief Ryan Law and chief executive officer Cheung Kim-hung —were charged under the new national security law and thus denied bail. The CPJ notes that Mr. Lai “fights for the right of his Apple News organization to publish freely, even as China and its backers in Hong Kong use every tool to quash them.”
The grim news is that those who want Apple silenced may be succeeding. We have learned that Apple may be only days away from stopping its presses. This itself is a lesson in freedom. Instead of directly censoring the publication, Hong Kong authorities, backed by China, have targeted the lifeblood of any news organization, its business operations.
The lesson of Apple is that freedom of the press doesn’t exist in the abstract. It depends on property rights. By freezing Apple’s corporate accounts, by stopping Mr. Lai from voting his shares (he holds 72% of the company), and by scaring people from advertising in Apple or doing business with it, Hong Kong has been trying to deny the paper the wherewithal to continue. Lenin understood this more than a century ago, recommending that Communists control newsprint and advertising to bring the press to heel.
There’s a warning here for other Hong Kong business enterprises that may not think they have a stake in what happens to Mr. Lai or Apple. Hong Kong authorities are stealing Mr. Lai’s company because they don’t like his political views—and they have done it by police orders, without due process or judicial review. If they can do it to his company, does anyone really believe they won’t do it to a bank or tech company that offends China?
The men and women at Apple have been making a valiant stand to keep publishing despite the risk of arrest and imprisonment. They are an example of real journalistic courage that should educate an American media that likes to play up its bravery in challenging the government while living under the protection of the First Amendment and a free society. Mr. Lai and his journalists have put their freedom at risk to challenge a real tyranny.
The CPJ award is richly deserved, and it should put a global spotlight on what is happening to Mr. Lai and Apple. As China’s Communist Party seeks to expand its political control over critics world-wide, often with the acquiescence of Hollywood and U.S. tech companies, Jimmy Lai speaks for everyone fighting for the cause of liberty.//

fight for freedom stand with hong kong 在 MPWeekly明周 Youtube 的最佳解答
對現在十八歲的傷者Simon來說,2019年8月31日是人生中永不磨減的日期。三百六十五天前,列車停在太子站,他的後腦被打了三棍,血染紅了白色的熊貓襯衫,人頓時天旋地轉……
「當時有衝突發生,我聽到車站響起警報聲,感到很驚慌。我走了去對面荃灣線往中環方向的列車,進去後,我將背囊放到椅子上,我站在背向車門的位置,檢查隨身物品。」他覆述那夜細節,仍是語速緊張,眉頭緊皺。
「當時,我沒有留意到原來警察就在我身後,直到第一棍,打中了我的頭部。第二棍打下來,我就失平衡,整個人撞了去列車道門旁邊的凹位,跌了在地上。然後捱了第三棍,我回頭終於看得清,那是一班蒙面黑色制服的警員。」這個過程,他明明說了很多次,但是每一次重提舊事,還是猶有餘悸。
他的頭部血流如注,血紅色很快沾滿他那件充滿稚氣的熊貓T-shirt,人有點模糊,乖乖地蹲在地上等待包紮,還傻氣地用手摸一摸後腦那股溫熱……
「我不痛,但那一刻覺得很恐懼。」Simon當天是一位乘客,沒有手持武器,沒有豬嘴在身,甚至連黑衣也沒有穿,「為甚麼他要用這麼強烈的武力去對我呢?」這是他思考了整整一年也想不通的問題。
最後他隨列車被送到油麻地站,並到廣華醫院受治理。九月二日是中六的開學日,Simon缺席了開學禮,他躲在醫院病床上,頭殼縫了十四針,他記得,護士每縫一針,他都緊緊捏着拳頭抵受着痛楚,「我那時只有十七歲,這些痛楚是不是應該由我承受?」
一年間,那三棍如夢靨纏擾他多時,他卻發現無人受到追究。所以他決定提出民事訴訟,入稟區院向警務處處長民事索償,並希望向港鐵索取閉路電視片段,還8.31一個真相。
律師估計程序冗長,需時甚久,大約需要六年,但Simon覺得「既然開始了就要做下去」:「這個訴訟不只是代表我自己,而是代表整個香港希望尋求公義的人。8.31打死人的所謂傳言存在太久,希望我們可以找到真相。」
過去一年,Simon受傷,卻從未放棄學業。他咬緊牙關溫習,竭力考好DSE。最後,他如願考入中文大學。記者兩次聯招放榜均陪伴在側,完全感受到他即將成為大學生的興奮心情,若不是那一夜坐上那班恐怖列車,眼前小伙子應該只會會在乎中六Last Day用甚麼顏色筆簽名、和同學去哪兒Grad trip,而不是在法庭奔波、接受媒體訪問……
他的鎮定讓人忘了,他只有十八歲。那是個青春懵懂的年紀,讀書考試是世界的全部,去玩會穿熊貓襯衫。而今天,他又和我們來到太子站,在月台上來來回回走了幾趟,血漬不在了,尖叫聲不在了,棍子不在了,但他幽幽地說,「無論過了多久,有些事是怎樣也抹不走,抹不走的。」

《#younglivesmatter》是香港反修例風波一周年紀念推出的歌曲。於一年間,無數香港年青人被捕、監禁、暴力對待,甚至失去自己的自由和生命。歌曲創作時是被外國黑人維權運動#blacklivesmatter 所啟發。
#younglivesmatter is an original song written for the 1st anniversary of the Hong Kong anti-extradition law movement. Throughout this 12 months, countless youngsters are arrested, detained or abused by the police brutality. Some of them lost their freedom and even lives. This song is inspired by the civic moment #blacklivesmatter in US.

Lyrics:
Young lives, Young lives matter
Even though the world is getting sicker
Young lives, Young lives matter
In the night, the sky is turning darker
Young lives, Young lives matter
All the fight in rain will make us stronger....
Alls Ooo.... ooo....
Young lives, young lives matters
We deliver the songs it’s like a prayer
Faith are haunted by greed and it’s on fire
Life's a true story, and we’re the author
Yeah... who can tell me what it means
What it means to see police arrest the teens
Streets covered in smoke like a movie scene
We struggle, we suffer, yeah we’re perfect team
What makes you put us in custody?
Since when it’s crime to fight the reality
Stay true, rebellious, we’re Young and Free
The game is on... now... we’re ready daily
Stop killing, Stop killing with your guns,
Stop shooting, stop shooting under the sun
You’re an armed coward being widely funded
By an authoritarian ******* government
Hey... what kind of society this is
Hate... kids who are politically active
Cops ... are extremely aggressive
Force... is used unlawfully excessive
Do you really care about your/ son and daughter?
Or You are blinded by propaganda so don’t even bother
How can they back home if you decided to Shut the door?
Instead of lives, you care about so called Public Order
Freedom and democracy are what we strike for
In this dark age we stay on street until we fall
Unity in diversity is what we live for
O god... it sounds like this is the final call
It doesn’t mean we all don’t wanna live our lives
You gonna tell us what’s the point to stay alive
Deep down I can’t help to question who am I
I hope there’s a chance for us to say goodbye
To all the struggle
To all the pain
(Ian: Together we stand
Ben:Stay every weekend
Jason: For the city we Defend
All: Our dreams will never end)
