The Six Graduates 六個畢業生 (2015)
Synopsis
The Six Graduates was selected as one of the project under the New Malaysian Works Grant for the script writing which co-organised by National Department For Culture And Arts with Kakiseni. The script focused on six graduates upon their graduation. Under a glimpse of dimmed light, looking and searching for the hidden fluctuation within them. The six graduates lived an ordinary life, as if no one was hurt. Their lives were boring and cold, the future is in extremely anxiety. They hide the wound, with tacitly silence. They desired to reveal the hidden mask but could only scratch the surface of the truth. Theatre director Loh Kok Man had carried out full time rehearsal with a group of emerging artists and together they dive deep inside the script and explore the core of the characters, creating one of the sincerest productions of the year.
在尋常的良善底層,有沒有未被誘發的惡?當體制的刀襲來,誰先放棄抵抗?誰會頑抗到底?選擇行動或選擇不行動,會否改變無力的現實?奮勇抵抗的結果,會否只是英雄崇拜的
這是六個即將畢業的大學生之間的故事。二十出頭,生命閱歷尚淺,年輕生命的虛無、精力過剩,內心底層對現實的恐懼,讓他們的生活基調親密又虛空。他們之間的關係糾纏不清,互相愛戀卻又互相背叛。他們是超級考試機器,但生活空無一物,無聊、虛無、蒼白,像無病呻吟的詩篇。他們既善良又懦弱,羨慕革命的熱烈和叛逆的熱情,但習慣待在安全區域的他們,只是思想的巨人、行動的侏儒。他們心中匿藏一個暗影,也是光亮的背影,這個光亮卻黝暗的影子,如影隨形,深深的影響了這六個畢業生,也讓他們的青春暗面逐漸浮現。這六個成績中上,社會期許的未來精英,為何從未畢業?畢業前夕,究竟發生了什麼事?還是什麼都未發生?
