曾荣获第88届美国国家评论协会奖,并入围奥斯卡纪录片短名单、美国独立精神奖、哥谭独立电影奖等专业奖项足够说明这部《持摄像机的人》的超高口碑。基尔斯滕·约翰逊是著名摄影师,曾经参与迈克尔·摩尔的《华氏911》、劳拉·珀特阿斯的《第四公民》等名作。你会在片中看到布鲁克林拳击手的挣扎、阿尔及利亚接生护士在恶劣条件下工作、波斯尼亚阿拉伯农民返乡等等。影片中对于那些遭受过大屠杀、大灾难的地点进行再审视的画面,更是直逼内心。A boxing match in Brooklyn; life in postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina; the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife; an intimate family moment at home: these scenes and others are woven into Cameraperson, a tapestry of footage collected over the twenty-five-year career of documentary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson. Through a series of episodic juxtapositions, Johnson explores the relationships between image makers and their subjects, the tension between the objectivity and intervention of the camera, and the complex interaction of unfiltered reality and crafted narrative. A hybrid work that combines documentary, autobiography, and ethical inquiry, Cameraperson is both a moving glimpse into one filmmaker's personal journey and a thoughtful examination of what it means to train a camera on the world.
