Director 導演:Simon Brook

In an open and intimate conversation with his son, Peter Brook speaks about his life, career, friends, love for travel and his insatiable curiosity with regard to all peoples, countries and cultures.

The theatre emerges as the natural central thread of the film and the director's life. First of all literally, we can discover shots of rehearsals where we see him for the first time working with and directing his actors (Maurice Bénichou, Yoshi Oida, Bruce Meyers and others) and clips of some of his productions. Then in words as he looks back over the highlights and watershed moments of his career: joining the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1962, the travelling theatre laboratory and his experience on tour in Africa in 1971, creating the International Centre of Theatre Research and setting up at the Bouffes du Nord in 1974.

在一次與兒子公開和親密的對話中,彼得.布魯克談論他的人生、工作、朋友、對旅遊的熱愛以及他對世人、不同國家和文化那永不能滿足的好奇心。 戲劇很自然地成為了這部影片及這位導演生命中的主線。影片開始的時候是具體的,我們可以看到排演的鏡頭,當中首次讓我們看到他如何指導演員演戲,以及一些他的製作的宣傳短片。跟著他用語言來回溯其職業生涯中的高潮與重要時刻:一九六二年加入皇家莎士比亞劇團,一九七一年隨實驗劇場到非洲作巡迴表演,一九七四年創辦國際戲劇研究中心,並在 Bouffes du Nord 任職。
