The workers of a self-managed tea factory decide to go against the grain and play by their own rules. The problem is, how can you plan, work and survive in a world driven by ruthless competition? One day at a time, for instance. In a world ruled by profit and dominated by the exploitation of the weaker ones, the film literally offers an alternative set of ways about how to think our future and the means and tools to work for it. It is not an easy job but, as Taste of Hope carefully and precisely shows, there is still a lot that can be done if we change our relationship to production and labor. Instead of making grand gestures or political statements, the filmmaker works with the camera and with a thoughtful editing in order to understand how to weave together new possibilities of communal existence. The result is a superbly crafted observational exercise. A little manual of self-defense and resistance in the face of a neoliberalism that wishes for workers to keep their heads down. A taste of hope indeed.
这是一个微缩版的虫虫世界。每个故事的主角都是小昆虫,在5分钟的时间里,通篇没有一句语言和对白,以纪录片的风格描述虫虫们的生态环境,同时又演绎出了生动幽默的故事来。爱欺负人的瓢虫、遵守交通规则的蜜蜂、喊口令成群出动的蚂蚁们、坚持不懈滚着方形便便球的屎壳郎、幻想能快速飞驰的蜗牛、破茧成蝶的可爱毛毛虫等等,这些小昆虫的形象不仅让人眼前一亮,而且个性鲜明,也让观众看起来津津乐道……Minuscule系列一共只出版了三张DVD,也是两个年轻法国艺术家Thomas Szabo和Hélène Giraud的优秀动画作品集。其中,场景和声音效果都是采用现实中真实的东西,而小昆虫和小动物则是用三维动画技术设计出来的,不光小孩子们非常喜欢,也俘获了大人们的喜爱。该系列作品曾获得2007年所有年龄组最佳电视系列片(Best TV series for all ages)的Pulcinella奖。
