2018加拿大纪录片《1999》由Samara Grace Chadwick导演,影片讲述的是:
When death haunts a high school in a small town in the late 1990s everyone is forever transformed In this gentle prismatic film Samara returns to the town she fled as a teen to reimmerse herself in the memories still lurking there in its spaces and within the dusty boxes of diaries photos and VHS tapes 1999 is not a ghost story but the ghosts are palpable at every turn The snowcovered streets the schools hallways and lockers are preserved as in a dream The absences left by the relentless teenage suicides still shimmer with questions trauma and regret Samara encounters people who are as breathtaking as they are heartbroken and finally 16 years later the community strengthens itself by sharing the longsilenced memories Ultimately the film weaves together multiple voices in a collective essay on how grief is internalizedand how as children we so painfully learn to articulate our desire to stay alive
