经过上百年的发展，头儿胶片技术从蛮荒走到成熟，头儿电影人采用化学摄影法创造了一个又一个经典和视觉奇迹。而当时间逐渐走向21世纪时，化学摄影法趋近临界点，几无上升空间，且越来越无法应对电影工业对新技术和全新拍摄手法、理念的诉求。与此同时，数字摄影方兴未艾，正以前所未有的势头进入传统技术固若金汤的电影领域。从Dogma 95对手提DV的使用，到乔治•卢卡斯大胆的HD摄影之应用，伴随着“顽固派”和“革新派”的政治和讨论，数字摄影蚕食着传统胶片的领土，逐渐成为当今电影工业的主流。在这一过程中，配光、摄影、剪辑等工作也相继受到冲击和影响。这是一场全新的革命，是对充满各种可能性的未来满怀信心的展望……

回复 :At the time of the Polish social regime, a security officer is promoted to work at a prison yard. Introducing concurrently with the narrator; he speaks of himself, his thoughts, his point of view. He tells that he is not afraid of bandits or gangs; on the contrary he gets a kick out armed conflicts. To get a start in his new duty, he shops for a watchdog; and he buys an untrained attack dog as his companion. Then he speaks of the adjudications that the death sentence for fugitives is lacking influence. From his point of view, the judicatory tribunal must execute the fugitives in public. In the morning the next day he wears his uniform and start working with pride.Whilst he is on his duty, a very harmonic music score begins to be played on the piano. The watchman spectates the peaceful life on the street. At that time we catch on that socialism is not a governmental regime; yet it's an uneducated behavior.As a final scene the watchman witnesses of a cadet school's pupils being taught of the democracy. He leaves us with a confused smile.A soft and likable thesis from the Polish director Kieslowski. You can find this short documentary as a special feature in his DVD of A Short Film About Killing. It could help you to compass his film language.
