ABSTRACT

Since 2005, a growing number of French documentary filmmakers have taken their cameras inside institutions of care: hospitals, psychiatric wards, private doctors’ offices, nursing homes and even prisons. This article focuses on two films – Prendre soin/Caring (Bertrand Hagenmüller, 2018) and Être là/Being There (Régis Sauder, 2012) – that bring the viewer inside nursing homes and a psychiatric care unit located at the heart of a violent penitentiary – to contend that filmmakers have redefined (health)care as a political and ethical field so as to interrogate our collective (in)ability to care for all members of our society with compassion and attention. It proposes that Prendre soin and Être là actively engage with care as a set of practices, attitudes and interactions that continually need to be reaffirmed against misconceptions, managerial demands and institutional violence. As they do so, they position documentary cinema as a space where the value of care can be grasped more intimately. Furthermore, both films dislodge the viewer from the safe position documentary spectators expect to maintain by leading them to face alterity (social, psychological, physical) as a shared human condition.

在那里,在你面前:关心无人关心的人

摘要

自 2005 年以来,越来越多的法国纪录片制片人将相机带入医疗机构:医院、精神病房、私人医生办公室、疗养院甚至监狱。本文重点关注两部电影——Prendre soin/Caring(Bertrand Hagenmüller,2018 年)和Être là/Being There(Régis Sauder,2012 年)——将观众带入疗养院和位于暴力监狱中心的精神病院– 认为电影制作人将(医疗)保健重新定义为一个政治和道德领域,以质疑我们集体(不)以同情和关注照顾社会所有成员的能力。它建议Prendre soinÊtre là积极参与关怀作为一系列实践、态度和互动,这些实践、态度和互动需要不断得到重申,以防止误解、管理要求和机构暴力。当他们这样做时,他们将纪录片电影定位为一个可以更深入地掌握护理价值的空间。此外,这两部电影都将观众从纪录片观众期望维持的安全位置上移开,引导他们面对作为共同人类状况的异质性(社会、心理、身体)。
