Katabui, au coeur d'Okinawa

Katabui，沖繩方言，指在極小的局部地域，從極度晴朗瞬間刮起狂風暴雨的突發性天氣現象。本片以此作為沖繩乘載美軍基地的隱喻。儘管沖繩必須容納外來者的存在，承受著萬物的變幻無常，卻保持其韌性與生命力。 導演Daniel López在沖繩定居數十年，從旅人的視野轉向在地，本片是他首部紀錄長片，以散文般的流暢敘事與哲思，側寫沖繩在地人物，從生到死的歲時祭儀，從美軍基地抗爭到民謠即興現場，政治、記憶與文化融為一爐，生動呈現沖繩的今日樣貌與歷史流轉。 Despite the conflicts posed by the U.S. military presence in Okinawa, the inhabitants of the island fight and strive for the survival of their indigenous identity. In this very personal documentary film, Swiss director Daniel López delivers an analysis of a difficult political situation and presents Okinawa's fascinating culture in many of its aspects.
