孟加拉国导演穆斯塔法·萨瓦尔·法罗齐曾凭借《蚁族与明星》入围2014年上海国际电影节金爵奖主竞赛单元,十年后,这位老朋友携新片《类自传》与上海影迷重聚。在这部新片中,法罗齐本色出演,与他现实生活中的妻子努斯拉特·伊姆罗斯·蒂莎扮演一对明星夫妇。影片展现了导演法尔罕和演员蒂蒂在面临着生育的社会压力时所经历的错综复杂的关系变化,英文片名“Something Like an Autobiography”取自日本电影天皇黑泽明自传《蛤蟆的油》的英文书名,为本就“元叙事”的结构增添了一层迷影意味。

導演找來柏林影展最佳攝影作品《青春殘酷課》攝影師一鏡到底,根據真人真事改編2016年一宗導致20多人死傷的恐怖襲擊。但孟加拉導演的焦點,並非血腥屠殺,而是恐怖主義的根源。槍手佔據餐廳,挾持的人質包括本地人和外國人。他們企圖用子彈分化人心,扭曲宗教理念,旨在合理化自己的冷血暴行。無辜的伊斯蘭教徒,在「割席」與「不割席」之間抉擇,也不能逃過泯滅人性的衝擊。本片巧妙地使用長鏡頭,營造張力,緊湊得令人喘不過氣。在極端的氛圍之下,探討社會及政治議題,想必能激發觀眾的深思。
