多數(shù)人都住在城市，但沒多久之前，我們都來農(nóng)村。可惜的是，現(xiàn)代市與鄉(xiāng)村已成為大相逕的兩個世界。有多少人解現(xiàn)在的農(nóng)村？又有多人關(guān)心現(xiàn)代農(nóng)村的艱難境？農(nóng)村不應該是都市發(fā)的預備用地，更不是納各種都市鄰避設(shè)施的圾桶。農(nóng)村區(qū)域有其自性、神聖性，是一個健國家永續(xù)發(fā)展不可或缺一部份。現(xiàn)代農(nóng)村並非都市或現(xiàn)代生活完全隔，在現(xiàn)代的科技與產(chǎn)業(yè)態(tài)下，農(nóng)村如何維持其史、產(chǎn)業(yè)、空間、文化生態(tài)、景觀等特色，卻與時俱進，已成為全世政府極嚴肅的課題。公電視《農(nóng)村的遠見 / The Eternal Farm Villages》系列紀錄片，將帶領(lǐng)觀眾走入世界各地農(nóng)村典範。製作團隊造了德國、荷蘭、美國、本、印尼與臺灣數(shù)個國。藉由這些國家的農(nóng)村典典範，啟發(fā)觀眾對自農(nóng)村更多的想像，並從些心懷遠見的農(nóng)民、居與經(jīng)營者打拼的故事中看見農(nóng)村永續(xù)發(fā)展的無可能。擁有30年紀錄片製作經(jīng)驗的寶花團隊，時四年，透過第一手的料、優(yōu)美細膩的4K影像、溫馨的人物與劣勢突的故事，帶領(lǐng)觀眾重回們心靈的故鄉(xiāng)。Most of us now live in cities; however, not too long ago, most humans lived in villages. Unfortunately, modern cities and farming villages have become vastly different worlds. How well do we really know our villages now? Do we even pay attention to them? Villages should not be regarded as still-to-be developed cities, or waste disposal sites for urban areas. A self-regulated farming village with its own sense of value is indispensable for national sustainability. The separation of farming villages from urban or modern life is not necessary or inevitable. Facing the challenges of modern technology and industry, it is critical for villages to develop without losing their essential nature.This PTS production of ‘The Eternal Farm Villages’ takes the viewer to some of the world’s most exemplary villages. The production team visited Germany, the Netherlands, the Unites States, Japan, Indonesia and Taiwan.The inspiring villages they discovered will expand our horizons, and the stories of visionary farmers, residents and business owners give us a chance to see how sustainability can be achieved.With 30 years of film-making experience, Bowwow Productions spent four years making this documentary series. Combining firsthand materials, 4K resolution footage, charming characters, and inspirational stories, the viewer is transported back to the hometowns we all have somewhere in the back of our minds.
