冬天,蒂妲絲雲頓拜訪落腳於法國小山村四十餘年的挚友約翰伯格,兩人散步於靄靄白雪的村莊!或深或淺地,在小屋中聊起童年記憶與歷史承接。春天,透過凝視動物,經歷一場人類與動物關係的思辨。炎天,於山村中跟三兩藝術家漫談當代政治,佐以舊時影片!音樂,摸索藝術怎样述說政治。秋日,蒂妲再度帶著孩子拜訪約翰以及約翰之子,在視野遼闊的山村生涯中,發現傳承的意念存在於所觀看的每一片風景。四部短片象徵四序的更迭,而山村的風景!動物!生涯則是年復一年的循環,體現約翰口中[無窮延长的此時现在]。他的思惟及人生觀與陈旧的農舍!青葱的綠地!放牧的牛群相呼相應,說著這個天下方圆人物风物的故事,阿爾卑斯山裡的小村莊,則是最诱人的舞台。（以上來自2016台北金馬影展）The Seasons in Quincy is a feature-length documentary film in four parts by the Derek Jarman Lab at Birkbeck, in collaboration with Til da Swinton, Christopher Roth and Colin MacCabe. Together, the parts constitute a film portrait of John Berger, the British writer and thinker.In 1973 - Berger abandoned the metropolis to live in the tiny Alpine village of Quincy. He realized that subsistence peasant farming, which had sustained humanity for millennia, was drawing to an historical close. He determined to spend the rest of his life bearing witness to this vanishing existence, not least by participating in it. Berger’s trilogy Into their Labours chronicles the peasant life of this Alpine village and its surrounding countryside. Our portrait places Berger in the rhythm of the seasons in Quincy.The four parts of the film each address different strands of Berger's life and work. The first, Ways of Listening, directed by Colin MacCabe, deals with fathers and friendship. Spring, directed by Christopher Roth, considers Berger's writing on our relationship with animals in juxtaposition with the animals that surround him in the Haute Savoie. A Song for Politics, directed by Colin MacCabe and Bartek Dziadosz, reflects on politics through a conversation between Berger, Colin MacCabe, Ben Lerner, Akshi Singh and Christopher Roth. The last part, Harvest, directed by Tilda Swinton, revisits Quincy to meditate on belonging and continuity with John and his son Yves.來自http://www.jarmanlab.org/the-seasons-in-quincy-four-portraits-of-john-berger.html

Homelessness, hunger and shame: poverty is rampant in the richest country in the world. Over 40 - million people in the United States live below the poverty line, twice as many as it was fifty years ago. It can happen very quickly. Many people in the United States fall through the social safety net. In the structurally weak mining region of the Appalachians, it has become almost normal for people to go shopping with food stamps. And those who lose their home often have no choice but to live in a car. There are so many homeless people in Los Angeles that relief organizations have started to build small wooden huts to provide them with a roof over their heads. The number of homeless children has also risen dramatically, reaching 1.5 - million, three times more than during the Great Depression the 1930s. A documentary about the fate of the poor in the United States today. 这是一部对于贫平易近生活情况的记录片。在美国这个天下上最富有的国度,有超越4万万人低于穷困线,比50年前多了两倍。一夜崎岖潦却是常有的。贫平易近只能依附食物券过活。无家可归的人除了住在车里不其余挑选。在洛杉矶有太多的无家可归者,一些公益构造开端赞助他们造街边小板屋。无家可归儿童的数目也大幅回升,亲近150万,这个数字是1930年月大冷落时代的3倍。这是一部对于贫平易近在本日美国的运气。
