《入戲》這部紀錄片，緣起於導演董雪瑩想拍攝一部關於演員生存狀態的紀錄片《微笑》，然而在補拍素材時，意外被引進葉京導演籌備《記得少年那首歌》的劇組中。葉京為了訓練年輕演員呈現電影中文革時期的精神氣質，將13名演員集中在四川一間⋯⋯
《入戲》裡的「江思遠事件」與「史丹佛監獄實驗」在某種程度上十分相似：只要人類社會自我封閉起來，不論規模大小（從十億人的中國到數十人的劇組或者十數人的監獄），總會有人以集體之名要求其他所有人自我犧牲，抹除個體差異，團結一致，而形成極權統治的社會。這也是為何奧地利裔英國哲學家卡爾・波普（Karl Popper）針對⋯⋯

Finding Stillness in Uncertain Times: 10 Curated Films from Our Resident Artists During the pandemic, we’ve found more quiet moments to truly appreciate the beauty of everyday life. Resident artists from the National Theater & Concert Hall have each handpicked a film that resonates deeply with them—inviting you to slow down and reflect during this period of working from home. ▍Huang Yu-Ching: “With limited movement, we are asked to listen more closely to the inner voice of our bodies. Want to watch two snails slowly form a connection? There’s no better time for something this soothing.” ▍Wang Chao-Chien: “The pandemic has made us all more aware of distance—the distance of time, the distance between becoming and performing a role, and the strange moments that define legendary bands. These films help us sit with those feelings and reflect.” ▍Chien Chieh: “They are storytellers, writers, dancers, filmmakers. Documentaries capture an era or linger on a single figure, guiding us closer to ourselves.”
A mountain-village family bound by pneumoconiosis, a promise left unkept in the snowy mountains, a city whose memories are reenacted again and again — before they became films, these were stories their makers could not let go of. The Chinese Doc Forum (CCDF) has accompanied filmmakers as they carried these unfinished stories onto the pitching stage, and then back into the field to keep filming and waiting. This collection brings together completed works that were once pitched at CCDF. We invite you to sit down and walk the final stretch of the journey with these stories.

Through the in-depth observations and immersive storytelling of various filmmakers, we are invited to quietly witness the struggles, challenges, and acts of resistance that individuals have faced, are facing, and will continue to face amid these sweeping changes— a testament to the human condition and resilience.
Shouting my heart out in the square, only to lose my voice like some bad joke. About to wave the flag—almost take the wrong one. Guess I’m hitting that early-senior haze; can’t be bothered to raise it anymore. Forgot it, just headed home and went to bed early. Before sleeping, I watched some films on Giloo—ended up in tears. Turns out awakening just makes things blurrier. Can't help pressing the play button for the next video.
I want to understand the why, the when, and the how behind these people and these stories. The more we know, the clearer we become about what we want—or don’t want—and where we’re headed. For me, knowing is a form of pleasure.
