How does human memory work, and how is that directly connected to films? What do films remember for us, and what do they rewrite? Why do certain scenes feel like memories, even when we know they never happened to us? In this Watch & Talk session, Cannes-nominated director Anji invites you to explore cinema as a space of memory, where time bends, fragments repeat, and meaning is shaped as much by feeling as by fact. Together, we’ll watch selected scenes and ask how film gets so close to the way the human mind actually remembers.

 

Through guided discussion, we’ll unpack how editing, sound, framing, and narrative structure create both false and true memories for the viewer, and how films reconstruct the past from pieces rather than timelines. From there, the conversation opens outward: how does memory really work, how do we frame our own experiences, and why does memory feel less like an archive and more like a story we keep retelling? Thoughtful, playful, and deeply human, this session is about seeing films, and your own memories, with fresh eyes.

 

人的记忆到底是怎么运作的？它又和电影之间有着怎样直接的联系？电影替我们记住了什么，又悄悄改写了什么？为什么有些画面明明没发生在我们身上，却会让人产生“这好像是我记忆里的一部分”的感觉？在这场 Watch & Talk 中，戛纳提名导演 Anji 会邀请大家一起，把电影当作一个关于记忆的空间来重新看待——在这里，时间会弯曲，片段会重复，意义的形成往往更多来自感受，而不只是事实本身。大家将一起观看精选片段，聊聊电影是如何如此贴近人类真实的记忆方式的。

 

在引导式讨论中，我们会拆解剪辑、声音、构图和叙事结构是如何为观众制造“真实”与“虚构”的记忆的，也会聊到电影如何不是按时间线，而是用碎片来重建过去。话题也会自然延展开来：人的记忆究竟是怎么回事？我们如何给自己的经历加上“框架”？为什么记忆更像一个不断被重讲的故事，而不是一个整齐存放的档案？这是一场既认真又好玩的对谈，核心是用新的角度去看电影，也重新看看你自己的记忆。
