Hello everyone, our third event is here!
The theme of this event is called "Conflict between Traditional and Modern Taiwanese Culture", and we will be playing two movies by Taiwanese
director Wang Yu-Lin, namely "Seven Days in Heaven" and ⋯⋯"Flying Dragon, Dancing Phoenix"!
Seven Days in Heaven's original author is Essay Liu, and this literary piece is the winning prose of the “Lin Rung San Literary Award”, which is
currently the literary award with the highest cash prize in Taiwan. Essay Liu then directed the film with Director Wang Yu-Lin, and the film tells the
story of a woman returning to a farming village in Changhua, central Taiwan within seven days of her father’s death. Upon her return, she has to face
the complicated Taiwanese funeral ritual traditions, and the film depicts this in a way of "black humour".
Famous Taiwanese traditional opera actress Kuo Chun-Mei takes the lead in "Flying Dragon, Dancing Phoenix". After receiving a Lifetime
Achievement Award, the old patriarch of the opera troupe passes away, and then his daughter, the successor and star of the show, injures her leg. The
survival of the troupe now falls onto the son-in-law, who recruited a man to be the female star playing the male lead. This hilarious and heart-warming
story brims with laughs and tears, and offers a unique look at the onstage and offstage lives of Taiwanese folk opera performances, including a
delightful twist on the traditional practice of switching gender roles.
We have also invited Director Wang and Ms Kuo Chun-Mei to NTU to give us a talk, and the theme of the talk is "Looking at Taiwanese Opera and the
Local Folk Culture through Film". Do support the event by coming for the talk, and you would get to know more about Taiwanese traditional opera,
film experiences and the how does traditional and popular culture blend into each other.
We hope to see you soon!
大家好，正當阿媛還在忙著宣傳我們的第二個活動“春節窗花剪紙教學”之餘，“台灣文化光點計畫”的第三場活動來了喔！
第三場活動主題，我們將從台灣導演王育麟所指導的兩部電影，《父後七日》，與《龍飛鳳舞》，探討“傳統與現代衝突下的台灣文化
”。
《父後七日》的原著作者是劉梓潔，書籍也在2006年獲得“林榮三文學獎”的散文組首獎。後來，劉梓潔與王育麟聯合指導了這部電影
，講述一名女子從彰化家鄉北上工作的青年，在父親過世後回家奔喪的七日的故事，以黑色幽默手法展現出道教與台灣喪葬習俗。
《龍飛鳳舞》耗資3500萬拍攝，由台灣著名歌仔戲演員郭春美擔任主角。劇情描述一個面臨解散危機的歌仔戲班，由於台柱“春梅”腿
傷無法上台演出，眾人異想天開找來一名與她容貌神似的男子頂替，竟意外矇混過關，並展開一連串熱鬧喜趣、曲折離奇的精采故事。
為展現國片另番風情，備感失落的春梅為治療腿疾於是出走印度，壯麗的異國風光與印度大師的哲理開示，讓春梅遍訪名醫無效的腿傷
，竟意外不藥而癒，並更因此獲得身、心、靈的全方位提升，她決定返台重振旗鼓……
另外，我們也和榮幸邀請到王育麟導演和郭春美女士到南大進行座談會，主題名為“從電影談台灣歌仔戲及當地民俗文化”，想要了解
更多台灣傳統歌仔戲表演，以及更多的拍片心得和台灣新舊文化如何交融，記得一定要來現場支持喔！
到時候見！
