重返解放广场

A year after the euphoria on Tahrir Square, the demonstrators' goals have not even come close to being reached. The country is ruled with an iron fist and there is still no democracy. The 'eye of the world' has moved elsewhere. How things have been in Egypt since 25 January 2011 is explained using five portraits of people from various walks of life. What have the sacrifices on Tahrir Square at the start of 2011 yielded? Unfortunately, not a great deal; this much is apparent from the stories of five Egyptians involved, about six months after the historic revolution. A young horse herdsman tells how he drove to the square to ask for the pyramids to be opened again; he only just managed to survive that day. A taxi driver talks about his six years in prison, the torture, and how the police now behave worse than ever. A young woman talks about intimidation and unjust arrests, which according to human rights lawyers are happening continuously

HKIFF 2012，#11，《重返塔希爾廣場》，和平革命後，軍政權比穆巴拉克更獨裁，人民生活更困苦，民主之路仍然遙遠，只要勇氣還在，自由花始終會開。影片新鮮熱辣奪得香港電影節最佳紀錄片。

其實要講到中東的問題，基本上是大同小異。早前在獨立電影節時看過伊朗的革命後，其實埃及也有過之而無不及。所以焦點應放回在導演如何拍攝與提供資料的準確性。

2012.3.30,Kowloon The Grand,Asian Premiere;導演親臨現場。從我所提問他的問題得知，他下個星期繼續拍續集。他透露是5個女藝術家為紀錄片主角。
