一树梨花压海棠

　　在近未来的反乌托邦社会，电视真人秀《过关斩将》（The Running Man）以血腥的生存竞赛霸占收视榜首。参赛者被称为“跑者”（Runners），必须在职业杀手的追猎下存活30天，一举一动皆被实时直播给嗜血的公众观众；每多活一天，便能累积更高额奖金。　　工人阶级的本·理查兹（格伦·鲍威尔 饰）为拯救重病女儿孤注一掷，被节目魅力十足却冷酷无情的制作人丹·基利安（乔什·布洛林 饰）说服，以“最后希望”的身份踏入这场死亡游戏。　　然而，本的叛逆、求生本能与坚韧意志，竟让他意外成为全民追捧的偶像——同时也成了整个体制的致命威胁。 随着收视率飙升至巅峰，危险指数同步暴涨。本不仅要智胜步步紧逼的猎人，更需对抗整个国度对他“惨败”的疯狂期待。　　影片改编自史蒂芬·金的同名小说。

Ayşe, Ali, Mehmet and Zeynep are middle-class millennials struggling to make ends meet in Istanbul. Either still living with their parents or hardly getting by without help from their families, they are all beset by similar woes: money crunch, joblessness, social isolation. In view of the world’s horrors that Zeynep enumerates in her diary entries, these are minor problems, ‘slight disasters’, but they are all-consuming, at least to the extent of making them cry in the still of the night. 　　However, Umut Subasi’s first feature, Almost Entirely a Slight Disaster, is not a melodrama. With an appealingly light touch, it diagnoses the malaise of a generation that has run up against a dead end, one whose future prospects are indistinguishable from a game of chance. This is a world where astrology, the lottery and online personality tests compete with visa and job applications as life-shaping elements. 　　Fittingly, the film is structured around chance and coincidence, with its handful of characters encountering each other in every permutation, as though there were no world outside this small social bubble. With self-aware, frontal framing that pins characters to their surroundings and a counterintuitive musical score that turns pathos into humour, Subasi offers a social-media movie without social media, one whose characters are united in their double lives and frustrated desires. 　　源自：https://iffr.com/en/iffr/2023/films/almost-entirely-a-slight-disaster
