The theme

The boundary between this and the array

東シナ海の南西部にある島嶼群「尖閣諸島」。日本と台湾・中国側との間ではこの諸島の領有権をめぐって不法操業や不法越境などの国際問題がしばしば発生している。ほかにもブータンと中国、カザフスタンとウズベキスタン、トルコとアルメニアなど、2国が隣接するエリアについてお互いが領土権を主張する領土争いは、現在も世界中で見られる問題。その背景には、石油などの天然資源や、国境付近にある川、農地、重要建造物などがあり、その所有の有無が国益を左右する場合も多い。 一方でソーシャル・ネットワークが世界各地に普及し、地球の裏側に住む友人の生活にも瞬時にアクセスできる現在。庶民のリアリティ感覚では、国同士の境界線はどんどん希薄になっているようにも感じる。それでも国同士は争うものなのか。国籍は必要なのか。自分がどこかの国民である、ということにどんな意味があるのだろうか。 今回は、2つの対象をめぐる「境界線」に着目して、渋谷で上映中の映画作品をピックアップ。異なる国同士のカップルのもとに生まれた「ハーフ」という存在にフォーカスしたドキュメンタリー、血の繋がった家族だと思っていた子どもが他人だったことを通じて、家族という共同体の意味を見つめなおす劇映画、食料廃棄の現状を通じて「食べもの」と「食べられないもの」の判断基準に疑問を呈するドキュメンタリー。それぞれ対象は異なるけれど、テーマになるのは、どこに境界線を引くのか、その境界線を引くことにどんな意味があるのか、という問題。異なる分野でのそれぞれのアプローチを通して、改めて自分の身近な境界線、自分とは関係無いものとしてきた境界線について、思いを馳せてみては。
