你有過孤獨的時候嗎?
如果有一天,你變成了好幾百斤的胖子,疾病纏身,你該怎麼辦?電影《行走距離》講的正是這樣一個故事,而攝影成了溫暖的拯救。
Did you ever feel lonely?
What would you do if one day you were hunted by illness, if it became difficult to walk with being overweighted? The movie Walking Distance tells us such a story, where photography becomes the savier.
如果可以給這部片子一個分類的話,也許我們可以叫它「廢柴」片。因為身體肥胖而行動困難的費德在母親去世後每天只能宅在家裡過著單調乏味的生活。影片一開始,清晨的費德從床上坐起他400斤的身體來,開始周而復始的一天。
If I can classify this film, I'd like to call it "loser film". Walking Distance is a urban fairy-tale about Fede, a man who weighs 200kg, which is causing him difficulties to move around his house. The beginning is a long close-up where Fede sits up in his bed, beginning his repetitive day.
每天串珠子做手工,收入微薄。
龐大臃腫的軀體讓他的行為變得遲緩笨拙,每天的生活不外乎看電視、聽廣播、吃甜點、做手工、睡覺。這樣的生活讓費德與外面的世界日益疏遠。
Fede does handcraft work at home to hardly make a living. His giant body makes it difficult to move. Everyday life is the same, watching TV, listening to radio, eating sweets, making handcraft, sleeping. This life isolates Fede from the outside world.
費德唯一德社會聯繫是妹妹羅紹拉和妹夫拉蒙,他們每周來看望費德。
The only social connection Fede has is his sister Ramon and brother in law Paulo, who visit Fede every week.
有一天拉蒙給費德看了他們外出旅遊時拍的照片,這激發起費德對攝影的濃厚興趣。他找到了一卷舊膠捲,決定出門把膠捲衝洗出來。在相片衝洗店裡,費德遇到了店主的兒子,一個酷愛漫畫書的孤獨少年保羅。洗出來的老照片讓費德喜出望外,照片裡有滿堂親朋為他慶生的畫面,也有他暗戀過的女孩。渴望重新記錄生活的費德從店員保羅的手裡買下了一臺二手卡片機。
One day Paulo showed Fede photos he took while travelling with his wife. Fede was very interested . He found an old photographic film and decided to have it developed and thus to go out of his house. In the photographic lab Fede met Paulo, a solitary comics lover. Fede was impressed with the photos he has developed. The photos record moments when he had a happy birthday party with friends and families and the face of girl he once loved. Fede decided to buy a used camera from Paulo.
費德開始在家裡拍照,他慢慢地發現攝影對他來講已經不只是一個愛好,而是成了他生命的寄託。
Fede started to take photos at home. He discovers that photography is more than just a hobby.
因為相機出現故障,保羅來到費德家裡維修相機,善良的孤獨少年被費德的處境和友善所打動,兩人成為了朋友。費德的生活也開始出現了變化。
Because of camera problem, Paulo came to Fede's house to repair. He was touched by Fede's situation and kindness. They became friends and Fede's life started to change.
費德開始走出家門拍照。攝影轉變了費德對生活的態度,他開始嚮往外面的世界,他想去韋拉克魯斯的海灣。
Fede started to go out to take photos. Photography has changed Fede's perspective about life. He decided to go to Veracruz bay.
但是旅行社以各種理由,拒絕費德入團,不甘心的費德,在一次獨自外出後心臟病發作。出院回家的他日漸消沉,再也不提去海邊拍照的事。這時的費德比任何時候都要絕望,對自己殘破不堪的生活,對不知道何時會來到的死亡感到萬念俱灰。
But the travel agency refused Fede with different excuses. Fede tried to go out alone take photos but had heart attack by accident. He was desperated, lying on his bed everyday and didn't want to move anymore. Fede lost his hope for life.
直到有一天,保羅帶著費德照片找上門來。原來那天費德獨自外出是出門拍照去了,照片裡充滿了生命的活力。費德翻著這些照片,心重新溫暖了起來。
Until one day, Paulo came with some photos. They were lively photos Fede took when he went out alone. Fede watched these photos and his heart began to warm up again.
費德決定和保羅以及妹夫拉蒙來了一場說走就走的旅行。拉蒙在皮卡車上裝上了大號座椅,保羅為費德帶來了專業的相機和鏡頭。費德坐在橙紅色的小汽車的後鬥,微風拂面,宛若重生。他們在韋拉克魯斯的海灣等待日出的萬丈光芒重新溫暖這個世界。
Fede decided to go to Veracruz bay alone with Paulo and Ramon. Ramon fit Fede in the back of his truck and Paulo brought profesional camera and lense. The free cool wind touches Fede's face, as fresh as if he was reborn. In Veracruz bay, the sunrise will warm them all.
我聽一個喜歡攝影的朋友說過,「我最在乎的不是拍出來的照片有沒有人喜歡,我只在乎拍照的過程給我帶來的無窮樂趣」。也許攝影的魅力除了按下快門時的期待,拍出好照片時的欣喜,更在於它所帶給我們的聯繫,它把孤獨的我們和這個世界聯繫在一起,和我們周圍的人聯繫在一起,於是生命不再孤獨。
A friend of mine once told me, "I don't care if people like my photos, I only care the happiness photography itself brings." Maybe the fanscination of photography is not only the moment when we press he shutter or the excitment when we get good photos. Photography is a connection. It connects us with the world, with people around us, thus life is no longer a lonely journey.
