作為最后的一批“海上游牧民族”，以胡可為代表的勇士們鼓足了勇氣，決定毅然踏上拯救這份獨特文化遺產的道路。 　　胡克從小就在海洋的陪伴下長大，對他來說，大海就是生活的全部。他來自于一個不斷消亡的“海上游牧民族”。影片跟隨胡克，以生活在現代社會底層人民的視角，記錄了胡可和他的莫肯族人在緬甸海灘上的生活。想要拯救這正在消失的文明并非想象中那么簡單，這批勇士們還面臨嚴峻的挑戰(zhàn)：社會認同、情感、得與失，甚至還有族人內心的歸屬感。 　　導演小傳 　　Runar Jarle Wiik出生于1967年。1988年從倫敦國際電影學校畢業(yè)。此后參與了上百部電影電視的制作，前后嘗試過作家、導演、制片、編輯和攝像等職位。1994年，他與比基尼季節(jié)公司制作了他的第一部故事片。 　　從1994年起，他主要在全球各個地區(qū)擔任紀錄片的攝影指導。他有著自己獨特的行事模式，要么就只跟導演共同完成紀錄片的拍攝，要么就自己一個人完成所有的工作。在最近幾年，他的作品基本上反映的是少數民族的生存困境。 　　導演闡述 　　在世界飛速發(fā)展的今天，莫肯族是為數不多的仍然保持著傳統(tǒng)的民族。他們對傳統(tǒng)文化的堅守也給我們以警示，現代化進程似乎讓我們背棄了太多。時至今日，他們是唯一一個依然選擇在富有民族特色的船上（Kabang）度過一生的民族。他們仿佛在向我們發(fā)問，在快節(jié)奏的生活中，我們是不是丟掉了太多？但是在種種困難下，他們獨特的生活方式也即將終結。原本就不再具有鮮明多樣性的世界民族文化“花園”，又將失去一朵曾經艷麗的“鮮花”。我想把莫肯族的故事講給世界聽，讓更多的人明白他們堅守的是什么。希望有識之士能從中悟出人類發(fā)展的正途。在這部紀錄片中，我深入到緬甸的丹老群島，以及散布在泰國和緬甸邊界安達曼海上的蘇林群島，去真實記錄與世隔絕的“海上游牧民族”——莫肯族。五年來，我用真心去觀察他們的生活，并用影像記錄下了點點滴滴。在我的內心里，我不僅僅把他們當做這部紀錄片的記錄對象，卻更像是一個個朋友。這種情感也讓這部紀錄片更完美，更真實。 　　在過去的十年，由于過度的人口流動，莫肯族的人口從一萬多銳減至現在的不到兩千。保護該民族文化的警鐘已經敲響。這部紀錄片的主角胡克，現在已經成為了我的好朋友。莫肯族人坦承地跟我講，他們往往不怎么待見外族人，但是他們百分之百地支持我紀錄片的拍攝和構思，特別是對莫肯族文化保護的思考。 　　2014：Eurodok – 歐洲紀錄片電影節(jié)：觀眾獎 　　2014：Nordic/Docs：最佳電影攝影獎 　　2014：挪威短片電影節(jié)：Gullstolen - 金椅獎 　　As one of the last indigenous sea nomads, Hook must make a courageous voyage to salvage the re-mains of his unique culture. 　　Hook grew up with the ocean as his universe; he is a sea nomad from a vanishing world. The film fol-lows Hook from the bottom of the modern social ladder on a voyage into the heart of Moken territory off the coast of Myanmar. More than a quest to salvage the remains of his culture, he faces the universal questions of identity, love, loss and belonging. 　　Director Bio 　　Runar Jarle Wiik (b. 1967) graduated from London International Film School in 1988, and has since been involved in over a hundred film and television productions as either writer, director, producer, editor, cinematographer or camera operator. In 1994 he made his feature film debut with The Bikini Season. 　　Since then, he has mainly been accepting assignments as D.O.P. on documentaries around the world. His travels have mainly been with either just the Director, as the Filmmaker in an expedition, or alone. In recent years his interests and focus lie predominantly on documentaries that address the plight of indigenous peoples. 　　Director’s statement: 　　The Moken are one of the few human cultures left on the planet that point us to what we may have lost on the way to modernity. Today they are the last sea-nomads still spending their entire life at sea aboard their ocean-crossing dug-out boats (Kabang). What is it that they might still offer us in our fast paced lives that we’ve forgotten about? Now under threat, their ways may soon fade and slip away, and the cultural fabric of the world impoverished by their loss. I want to tell the Moken’s story to the world, so we may know them and what they represent, and very possibly learn a thing or two about human development. I will be filming inside the world of one of the most isolated small scale traditional societies left on the planet, the marine nomadic Moken people, who live at sea in the Mergui Archipelago off the coast of Burma, and on Mu Koh Surin; an island group far out in the Andaman Sea on the border between Burma and Thailand. I have been developing this film with them for more than five years and I know them intimately. I count them as friends as much as subjects and that connection will allow me to construct this film. 　　In the past ten years the population of free-roaming Moken have gone from over 10000 to well under 2000. Time is running out. Our main character, Hook, has become a close personal friend of mine. His people have expressed that although they are usually unwilling to relate to strangers (outsiders), they are now unreservedly positive towards my film initiative and the works of Project Moken. 　　 　　Awards 　　2014:Eurodok - European Documentary Film Festival: Audience Award 　　2014:Nordic/Docs: Best Cinematography 　　2014:The Norwegian Short Film Festival: Gullstolen - The Golden Chair Award
