在 Gay Bar「Corner's」(角落)即將關閉前兩個月,老闆阿龍向一對女同志友人提議拍下酒吧的最後身影。影片嘗試以詩意感捕捉愛情的樣貌、對生命的思索,也以陌生語言發言,掩飾自我敘述時的羞赧與困窘。而語言製造出的疏離感,則暗喻著同志身分難以被外人理解的生命課題,期望藉由這艱困的訴說,讓更多人感到不寂寞。

 

《私角落》呈現同志洋溢著瑰麗而熱情的愛,卻僅能存在於私密空間,隱抑在傳統社會的角落。導演們亦曾提到:「雖然和環境之間經常格格不入,但對這些 Gay 和 Lesbian 來說,『同志』其實是一種令我們邁向幸福的生命形態,因為它貼近我們內在的真正趨向。」

 

Two months before the closure of the gay bar "Corner's," owner A-Long suggested to his lesbian friend that they film the bar's final moments. The film attempts to poetically capture the essence of love and reflections on life, using a foreign language to mask the embarrassment and awkwardness of self-narration. The sense of alienation created by the language metaphorically reflects the challenges of being LGBTQ+. Through this storytelling, they hope that more people will feel less alone.
