麵包情人 Money and Honey

李靖惠 Jasmine Ching-Hui LEE 2012 台灣 彩色 95分鐘 DCP
《麵包情人》是導演六部「家國系列紀錄片」最終曲,歷經 13 年製作完成,描述一群遠赴台北安養院,照顧衰老的身軀的「菲媽」,彩衣娛親為台灣子女盡孝道。她們大多擁有大學學歷,面對「麵包與情感」的兩難,卻只能把家人留在故鄉,在失去自由的勞動空間,和被遺留在照護中心的老人一起想家。影片鋪陳菲律賓千萬移工出國工作的流浪之歌,運用移工書寫的詩集,傳達他們面對漫長歸鄉之路,內心的想望。導演運則用攝影機作為移工與家人的溝通媒介,彷如家庭信差,穿透國界凝視生命風景。

Money and Honey intimately depicts the lives of Filipino migrant workers and the elders at a nursing home in Taipei. On this unfamiliar island, the female caretakers look after the aging people through the flow of life, and the joyful and sorrowful stories repeat in their lives. What is the price they pay for love and bread? Will their dreams ever come true? The film also records the development of a unique female friendship between the director, the migrant workers, and their families.
