Paris, I Love You

In Paris, love is everywhere.
In its bars and cafes. Under the Eiffel Tower. Even in the Metro that runs under its streets. In Paris, I Love You , prepare to see the city in a way you've never before imagined.

For Paris, I Love You , a host of international directors was asked to write and direct a five-minute film illustrating the timeless theme of romance, as it might be experienced, in one of the 20 neighborhoods of the city.

Paris has a rich cinematographic history but, rather than looking back, the aim of everyone involved was to show the city as it is today, to get away from the ‘picture postcard' idea of Paris and reveal aspects of the capital as never seen on the big screen. It portrays a diverse mix of social classes, generations, cultures and atmospheres.

The majority of the directors involved in the project are not natives of Paris and their films consequently capture both the reality of contemporary Paris and something of the enchantment one feels as a foreigner visiting the city. Their curiosity led them to corners of the city that their French-born counterparts might not have thought to explore. Their take on Paris will surprise even those who know the city well, whilst reaffirming its status as the city de l'amour.

 

在巴黎,愛情處處可見。
在咖啡茶座或酒館之中。在鐵塔之下。甚至在地底下行走的地鐵之中。《我愛巴黎》讓你以從未想象過的角度觀看這座城市。
多位國際導演應邀為《我愛巴黎》各自以巴黎的二十個行政區作背景來編寫和導演一部片長五分鐘的短片,藉此歌頌浪漫這永遠受歡迎的主題。

巴黎的電影藝術有著精采悠久的歷史,但參與這次製作的所有人都是旨在展現這城市 “ 今日 ” 的面貌,而不是緬懷過去,並希望擺脫巴黎固有的 “ 明信片 ” 形象,將這座首都中一些從未在大銀幕上出現的面貌揭露人前。《我愛巴黎》介紹各種社會階層,不同年代、文化和生活環境的人。

大部份參與這計劃的導演都並非巴黎土生土長,因此,他們的短片除捕捉了現今巴黎的實況外,也表達出一種外國人旅遊這城市時所感受到的迷惑。在好奇心帶領下他們探索這城市各個的不同角落,而些角落可能是其他身為法國人的導演們從未想過探索的地方。他們拍攝到的巴黎甚至會令熟悉這座城市的人震驚,但同時更鞏固了巴黎是 “ 愛 ” 的城市之美譽。
