Synopsis 故事大綱
Margarita, a pregnant woman, recently got married and accompanied her husband to the city. After settling in the town for two months, they were caught in the midst of an invasion of their country. In the chaotic first days of the war, Margarita suffered a miscarriage.
The persistent blaring of sirens and ringing in Margarita’s ears began to take a toll on her emotions. Suddenly, she heard a child’s voice whispering in her ear, claiming to be up in the clouds and looking down upon her. The child spoke of her being the best mother in the world, and how he decided to come to her.
Explosions occurred near the couple’s home, forcing them to seek refuge underground. In Margarita’s vision, she saw her child appear before her, accompanied by a younger sister. The sister proclaimed that she would join her family in the future. Margarita was hopeful, as she yearned for another child.
Margarita was weak and the couple knew that they couldn’t outrun the horrors of war, so they remained in their home. One tragic night, the invading forces arrived in their town and raped the women, with Margarita being one of the thousands. She got pregnant.
Margarita戀上一個城市的男人,不久她懷孕並隨丈夫到城市生活。剛來到城市兩個月便爆發大規模戰爭,戰亂使她意外流產。戰爭的警報及流產後的耳嗚使她突然卻聽到一把小孩的聲音,小孩說是從雲彩上看到她,認定她是世間中最優秀的女性,於是決定飛進她的肚裡去。
某夜他們的屋子不遠處遭到敵軍的轟炸,二人極恐,走到房子地牢躲避,孩子帶同另一個孩子來找Margarita,說是他的妹妹,妹妹看到二人在哭,所以她將會來世上陪伴他們,Margarita相信並期待自己會再度懷孕。虛弱的Margarita無力逃離戰火的家園,敵軍佔領該區域,某夜找出婦女們強暴,而Margarita亦在其中,原來妹妹的話是真的,她懷孕了。
Director’s Statement 導演闡述
On February 24, 2022, Russia full-scale invaded Ukraine. During the year, countless lives of Ukrainians were changed—some died; some survived but were left an irreversible sorrow. In this turbulent era, creations based merely on personal emotions no longer satisfy me. What I am concerned about is not only myself as an individual, but the people and what the aftermath of the war will be like.
The inspiration for this plan comes from the liberated Bucha, where the media exposed the war crimes committed by the Russian army during the 33-day occupation in Bucha. And what we can know is only one in millions. In this film, I would like to use the war as the background. The protagonist is also representing the mental state of the people who survived the war. I hope that the film will bring the audience to see not just a drama, but the relationship with the world it will be.
2022年2月24日,俄羅斯全面入侵烏克蘭,這一年間改變了無數烏克蘭人的生命—有人過世了;有人活下來卻永遠留下了巨大的陰霾。在這加速運轉的時代,現在的我已經不能滿足於情感探索的創作,我關心的已不單單是作為個體的自己,而是後戰爭將會是一個怎樣的景象。
本計劃的靈感來源於解放後的布查,媒體揭發俄軍在佔領布查33天中的戰爭罪行。而我們所 知的也只是千萬分之一。我希望在戲劇中以戰爭作為背景,探討主角作為戰爭中倖存者的精神狀態;我希望電影讓觀眾看到的不只是戲劇,而是自己和世界的關係。
