Professor Mary Beard, renowned classicist and TV historian, is to explore what life was like in one of the world’s most extraordinary and iconic archaeological sites, in Pompeii: Life Before Death, a new landmark programme for BBC One. Mary Beard – a world Pompeii expert and author of Pompeii: Life Of A Roman Town – will be joining an international team as they bring the very latest technology to bear on this most extraordinary of archaeological sites. Mary Beard says: “This is a really exciting chance to find out more about the ordinary people who lived in ancient Pompeii. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity. I'm hoping we're going to unlock some if the secrets about who the people were.” For the first time, a team is CT scanning and fully investigating the world-famous casts of the bodies to analyse the skeletons trapped within, to ascertain all they can about who they were, where they came from and how they lived. A team is also conducting DNA analysis of the bodies for the first time. Elsewhere, the documentary will follow the work of recovering damaged frescoes and mosaics, the excavation and rebuilding of certain key buildings and the organisation and cataloguing of the thousands of astonishing artefacts in the storerooms – from loaves of bread to pet monkeys, paint pots to purses. It will shine a light on the work of archaeologists who are exploring the third of the town that has never been excavated, and will present a unique first look at the complete Pompeii in stunning CGI. Using the evidence gleaned from all this research, the BBC One film will piece together a full picture of daily life in Pompeii before the town was destroyed by the eruption of Vesuvius in AD79.
等待一甲子,传说般的神话之鸟现身 顶着黑色羽冠、前端像沾到黑色墨水的橘色嘴喙、一身浅灰白色羽毛,这种在1861年被人类命名以来,就鲜少见到其踪影的燕鸥,究竟只是个神话,还是真实存在世界上? 2000年,一次底片调光机的故障,让生态摄影师梁皆得,在马祖意外发现60几年前被认为绝种的黑嘴端凤头燕鸥。自此,对这传说中「神话之鸟」怀有梦想的人们,穿梭在亚洲各国沿海,以及无数个无人小岛之间,有时遭遇大雨风浪,有时冒着跌入大海的危险,只为了能发现它们的踪迹。 寻找神话之鸟二十年,它们的数量从八只,到现在约一百只,仰赖迁徙路径上,各国的保育行动。然而,每年夏天台风对繁殖地的侵袭,捡鸟蛋、海洋垃圾、鱼类资源减少等自然与人为破坏,仍然对黑嘴端凤头燕鸥的生存造成庞大威胁。梁皆得跟随各国学者专家,纪录着黑嘴端凤头燕鸥、当地热爱这些鸟类的人们,以及自然环境三者所相互交织的故事。

What could the fate of the Villa Empain, Baron Empain’s crazy project in Brussels, which has gone through a long and eventful journey since its completion in 1934, possibly inspire? Katharina Kastner’s challenge was to draw the portrait of the place, keeping in mind the work of time, like in a human existence. Shot in 16mm, her film appeals to the senses, it captures the stirring of leaves undulating in the garden light, the movement of iridescent pearls, or the colourful games of a piece by Daniel Buren. Without a word, but with a caressing camera, she pays close attention to the hidden patterns on the gorgeous marbles, or to the veins in the most precious types of wood used to decorate the rooms. In slight touches, regardless of the monumental aspect of the 27.000 square-feet villa and the pool that so impressed its first visitors, Katharina Kastner o ers an organic vision of the place, which has been marked by the trials and tribulations of life, and used successively as a museum, an embassy and a squat, until its final renovation. The clever editing makes furtive connections, underlines colour associations, mixes up times and tactile sensations, while the spaces we explore keep rustling. The film takes us on a reminiscing journey, with slices of Empain’s life, from the family archive here on a holiday, there playing on the beach, images from a distant past that keep haunting the premises. The film reveals to us this living space that was designed like a piece of art, but it does so in a wandering way. This dream vision guides us through the villa like an echo of foregone fantasies, a mental space, but also a welcoming backdrop for the work of time. A bit like the fingerprint work we see in the film, or the slight touch of a pencil on a blank sheet.
法国当代艺术家克莱门特·科吉托,将法国音乐家让-菲利普·拉莫创作的欧洲启蒙时代芭蕾歌剧巅峰代表作《华丽的印第安人》再度搬上舞台,将古典华丽的巴洛克风格变为简洁夸张的巴黎市郊移民族群风貌。本片详实记录了这部震撼巴黎的歌舞剧的排练过程,30名地下舞者表演了嘻哈舞、折手舞、霹雳舞、狂派舞等,他们不同的民族和家庭背景,从导演构思到编舞排练,直到巴黎歌剧院公演。演出的最后铿锵有力,余音绕梁。这不仅是舞蹈与音乐的盛宴,也是新思潮的诞生。法国音乐剧爱好者的必看之作。
