本特映單元為雅加達Arkipel 國際紀錄片與實驗影展中的其中一個參與策展計畫。《邊陲事件》試圖透過建立真實與虛構的敘事向度來回應圍繞在台灣當代社會中各種結構性邊緣的心理狀態、人物、人文風貌殘景，同時透過觀察台灣新一代的獨立影像創作者的生產語言和實踐來觀察其所屬的邊陲意義在政治生活上的衍伸意涵。其中且值得關注的現象是這些影像工作者並不傾向生產強烈視覺景觀性的作品，而是選擇長期關注如何轉化他們自身的生活經驗與方式來創作視覺語言，透過他們作品的創作過程與社會產生對話與新的關係——結合不同的能動性來攪動、生產更具穿透性的反省力來理解各種各種畸零、異質、建構性的空間，他們的邊緣實踐自身往往就是一種對於既存生活條件的有力批判以及對日常生活的衝撞，事實上也是重新想像生命以驗證自主性存在的路徑。作品啟發觀看社會中破碎的網絡與條件狀態，尋找促成改變的新感性元素。《邊陲事件》同時透過藝術家的眼睛、身體與美學表述來展開對於當代社會張力的再凝視。

Marginal Matters is a screening program featured in the 2016 Arkipel International Documentary and Experimental Film Festival. It addresses the psyche, character and landscape of the structural margins in contemporary Taiwanese society by building new narratives, both real and fictional, that transcend the enclosures of reality. The works appropriate personal relations in the broken networks and conditions of society to seek new sensibilities that will propel change. It is worth noting that a new generation of contemporary independent filmmakers and artists in Taiwan are less concerned with producing visual spectacles. Instead they are turning to visual languages that correspond to their lived experience and ways of life. In this way their works gather new agency to mobilize different possibilities in the society that they address. Searching for a new and penetrating perspective on ‘progress’, their practices bear powerful critiques on the inherent conditions of life through often physical confrontations with the everyday. It is an exercise in affirming autonomy by imagining life once again. In this way Marginal Matters attempts to capture social tensions through artists’ eyes, bodies and aesthetics.
