简介:對許多人而言,家是避風港,也是心靈的歸宿。然而,對流浪動物來說,擁有一個安樂窩卻是遙不可及的夢想。《說笑之人》導演區焯文一直關注動物保護,在 2019 至 2023 年間,追蹤香港民間團體「毛守救援」 如何本著「救一隻、活一隻」的精神拯救動物,從醫治、暫托到領養,記錄小生命從無家變「毛家」的一點一滴。本片在四年間追蹤拍攝逾40隻流浪狗,當中不乏經歷過被虐待及嚴重傷害,最終成功覓得家園的不幸只有四隻,可見家真的來之不易,而這正是當今流浪動物所面臨的殘酷現實。For many, home is a refuge and a sanctuary; for stray animals, however, a loving home remains a distant dream. From 2019 to 2023, director Au Cheuk-man followed the non-profit organisation Paws Guardian on their harrowing missions to rescue and rehome stray animals – many of whom were abandoned, abused, or tortured. The result is a heartrending collection of stories on survival and resilience, highlighting the brutal realities faced by stray animals: of the 40 stray dogs featured in this documentary, only four ultimately found new homes.
