Who are we beneath the roles we play? And what happens when someone else starts to feel like a mirror of the parts of ourselves we’d rather keep hidden? Join Anji, a Cannes-nominated director, for a Watch & Talk of Ingmar Bergman’s Persona (1966), a landmark of psychological cinema. An actress falls silent. A nurse is sent to care for her. As one speaks and the other listens, the line between them grows harder to see. Through selected scenes, we’ll explore the archetypes within us: the Mask we show the world, the Shadow we’d rather hide and the Double who makes us wonder where one person ends and another begins.

Drawing on Carl Jung’s idea of the collective unconscious, the possibility that we share deep patterns of imagination, we’ll compare what we see in Bergman’s images and what they bring up for each of us. When does a role protect us, and when does it start to define us? Why can it be easier to recognise something in another person than to admit it’s part of ourselves? No knowledge of Jung or Bergman is needed, and you don’t have to have seen the film. Anji will guide us through the scenes and leave room for different readings. Sometimes the most surprising journey a film can take us on is the one that leads us deeper into ourselves.

Let's sit back with good friends in comfy chairs and watch scenes from a film admired and passionatley discussed by film students, professors and critics to this day. And, of course, let's have a deep conversation about our mutual journey.

在我们扮演的角色底下，我们到底是谁？当另一个人开始像一面镜子，照出我们宁愿藏起来的那些部分，又会发生什么？跟着 Anji 来一场观影聊片吧。他是戛纳提名导演。这次看英格玛·伯格曼1966年的《假面》，一部心理电影里的里程碑作品。一个女演员突然不说话了。一个护士被派去照顾她。一个人说，另一个人听，她们之间的那条线越来越看不清。通过精选片段，我们会探索我们内心的原型：我们给世界看的“面具”、我们宁愿藏起来的“阴影”，还有那个让我们忍不住想“一个人到哪儿结束、另一个人从哪儿开始”的“双重”。

我们会借卡尔·荣格“集体无意识”的想法——也就是我们可能共享着一些很深的想象模式——来比较我们在伯格曼的画面里看到了什么，以及它们各自在我们心里带出了什么。一个角色什么时候保护我们，又是什么时候开始定义我们？为什么在别人身上认出某个东西，比承认它也是我们自己的一部分要容易？不需要了解荣格或伯格曼，你也不用看过这部电影。Anji 会带着我们过这些片段，也会留出空间给不同的解读。有时候，一部电影能带我们走的最意外的旅程，是那个让我们更深入自己的旅程。

大家一起窝在舒服的椅子里，跟好朋友一起看一部到现在还被电影学生、教授和影评人欣赏和热烈讨论的电影里的片段。当然，也少不了围绕我们共同经历的那些事儿，来一场深入的聊天。
