摘要

《等待飛魚》是第一部以原住民達悟族為主軸，並在達悟族家鄉蘭嶼實地拍攝的影片，它是曾經獲獎的女性導演曾文珍第一次拍攝的劇情長片。本片於2005年在台北舉行的第12屆女性影展中初次公演獲得好評，也成為台灣電影業中被關注的劇情片。本文透過《等待飛魚》這部片對於緩慢成長的台灣電影業的貢獻，探討如何讓台灣的電影業長期以來被好萊塢壟斷市場下繼續存在與成長，並分析如何藉由以原住民族議題為主軸的劇情片在原始主義的觀念下，成為非原住民與原住民間的思想、輿論、消息等溝通的橋樑。作者認為台灣目前除了需要真誠的以實際行動履行諾言來支持包括原住民族在內的多元聲音與相關需求外，就台灣電影業來說，應該積極協助訓練並提供經費來培育原住民的相關人才，讓他們用更多元的面貌與方式一起來參與發展台灣電影業。

Marking a notable achievement in Taiwanese cinema, ”Fishing Luck” (”Deng dai fei yu”), the first feature narrative film set on Taiwan's Orchid Island, home to the Tao People, premiered in 2005 at the 12th Women Make Waves film festival in Taipei. It was also the first feature film directed by award-winning Taiwanese woman director, Tseng Wen-Chen. While contributing to the slowly growing canon of Taiwanese cinema, an industry historically dwarfed by the Hollywood machine, this essay examines how the film perpetuates notions of primitivism in cinema in its effort to build bridges of communication between Taiwan's non-Indiigines and Indigines. What is needed instead is a sincere commitment to supporting the expression of a multiplicity of evolving voices and experiences, which must include Taiwan's indigenous peoples. This essay calls for a sustainable training and funding infrastructure to nurture Indigenous talent in Taiwan's film industry, however vulnerable the industry may be.
