Memories Frozen in Time (2025)
冰封的記憶 IMDb TMDB
other title: 冰封的記憶
Eighty years after World War II, memory clings like frost to glass-blurred, fractured, yet never fully fading. Filmmaker Ming Chun retraces the forgotten journey of Taiwanese soldiers conscripted by Japan, captured by the Soviets, and exiled to Siberia. From departure and defeat to captivity and return, he follows a path of war and displacement-toward a home that no longer felt like home. Across Taiwan, Japan, and Russia, he searches for traces of their lives-abandoned camps, fading photographs, fragments of memory-while opening a dialogue across three generations: elders whose recollections falter, children burdened with unanswered questions, grandchildren confronting fractured identities. When history falls silent, what do we hear? And where do restless souls finally belong?

《阿罩雾风云》由李岗监製、许明淳执导,历时8年制作。上集讲到1895年台湾被割让给日本,下集故事则以林家三位男人:林献堂、林祖密以及林正亨为主轴,以围棋术语“落子”破题,“落子”意为著棋下子,接续上集“抉择”,讲述台湾自割让日本至回归国民政府二二八事件发生为止,政权的移转对台湾人民命运的影响。 一切就从马关条约生效后,开始讲起。 顶昔林献堂、下昔林祖密和儿子林正亨,虽同为“台湾五大家族”── 雾峰林家的一家人,三人对于家国却有著不同的想像:“台湾议会之父”林献堂投身民主化运动,设法在日本殖民时期,推动台湾自治;尚武且善贾的林祖密暗中资助、扶持中华民国政府;林正亨则是对国民党失望后,加入共产党革命行动。 《阿罩雾风云》系列透过一个家族的兴衰震荡,结合细致的考据,风格化的表现方式,并结合3D动画等多样方法揉合其间;采用台湾纪录片中较少见的“戏剧重现”手法呈现台湾历史原貌,感性勾勒台湾近代历史风云迭起的关键时刻。
