This is very strange for me, because I’m not used to doing this:
0
0
3000
这对于我来说怪怪的，因为我不习惯做这样的演讲
00:15
I usually stand on the other side of the light,
1
3000
3000
通常我都是站在镁光灯的另一边
00:18
and now I'm feeling the pressure I put other people into. And it's hard ...
2
6000
7000
现在我感觉到我曾经带给其他人的压力了，这可不太好受
00:25
The previous speaker has, I think,
3
13000
3000
我认为前一位演讲人已经
00:28
really painted a very good background as to
4
16000
6000
描绘出一副很棒的背景图—
00:34
the impulse behind my work and what drives me, and my sense of loss,
5
22000
6000
这幅背景图是关于我工作背后的动力，我的动力，我对失去的感触
00:40
and trying to find the answer to the big questions.
6
28000
6000
以及努力寻找那些较难的问题的答案
00:46
But this, for me, I mean, coming here to do this,
7
34000
5000
但这个对我来说，我指的是我来这里做演讲，感觉就像是
00:51
feels like -- there’s this sculptor that I like very much, Giacometti,
8
39000
8000
——有一个我很喜欢的雕塑家，贾克梅蒂
00:59
who after many years of living in France -- and learning, you know,
9
47000
5000
在法国居住、学习几年以后
01:04
studying and working -- he returned home and he was asked, what did you produce?
10
52000
7000
他回国了，人们问他，你创作了什么？
01:11
What have you done with so many years of being away?
11
59000
4000
你离开这么多年，取得了什么成就？
01:15
And he sort of, he showed a handful of figurines.
12
63000
3000
他就拿出几个雕像给他们看
01:18
And obviously they were, "Is this what you spent years doing?
13
66000
5000
显然他人并不满意：“你花了几年的时间就做了这个？”
01:23
And we expected huge masterpieces!"
14
71000
5000
我们期待的是看到‘巨作’，你懂吗”
01:28
But what struck me is the understanding that in those little pieces
15
76000
6000
但是让我感触良深的是，明白到那几件小物品
01:34
was the culmination of a man’s life, search, thought, everything --
16
82000
6000
是一个人一生的探索、思想以及一切
01:40
just in a reduced, small version.
17
88000
2000
只不过是浓缩了的一个小版本而已
01:42
In a way, I feel like that.
18
90000
2000
在某种程度上，我感觉到
01:44
I feel like I’m coming home to talk about
19
92000
3000
我觉得我要回家谈谈
01:47
what I’ve been away doing for 20 years.
20
95000
4000
我在外20多年到底做了什么
01:51
And I will start with a brief taster of what I’ve been about:
21
99000
6000
我会以我某个作品的片段作为开头
01:57
a handful of films -- nothing much,
22
105000
2000
我的作品包括数部电影
01:59
two feature films and a handful of short films.
23
107000
3000
两部剧情片和一些短片
02:02
So, we’ll go with the first piece.
24
110000
4000
我们先看看第一个片段
02:06
(Video) Woman: "I destroy lives," mum said.
25
114000
9000
视频：我毁了生活，妈妈说
02:15
I love her, you know.
26
123000
2000
我爱她，你知道的
02:19
She’s not even my real mum.
27
127000
2000
她甚至都不是我的亲生妈妈
02:21
My real mum and dad dumped me
28
129000
4000
我的亲生父母抛弃了我，
02:25
and fucked off back to Nigeria.
29
133000
2000
然后就滚回尼日利亚了
02:32
The devil is in me, Court.
30
140000
4000
恶魔在我身上，法院
02:36
Court: Sleep.
31
144000
2000
睡吧
02:40
Woman: Have you ever been?
32
148000
2000
你去过吗
02:42
Court: Where?
33
150000
2000
哪里？
02:44
Woman: Nigeria.
34
152000
2000
尼日利亚
02:48
Court: Never.
35
156000
2000
从未去过
02:50
My mum wanted to,
36
158000
3000
我妈妈想去
02:53
couldn’t afford it.
37
161000
2000
但是付不起路费
02:56
Woman: Wish I could.
38
164000
2000
希望我能去
02:58
I have this feeling I’d be happy there.
39
166000
3000
我预感到我在那里会很快乐的
03:08
Why does everyone get rid of me?
40
176000
2000
为什么人人都想离开我？
03:12
Court: I don't want to get rid of you.
41
180000
2000
我不想离开你
03:14
Woman: You don't need me.
42
182000
4000
你不需要我
03:18
You’re just too blind to see it now.
43
186000
3000
只不过你现在意识不到而已
03:23
Boy: What do you do all day?
44
191000
3000
你今天都做了什么啊？
03:27
Marcus: Read.
45
195000
2000
阅读
03:29
Boy: Don't you get bored?
46
197000
2000
你不闷吗？
03:31
And how come you ain't got a job anyway?
47
199000
3000
为什么你连份工作都找不到？
03:34
Marcus: I am retired.
48
202000
2000
我退休了
03:36
Boy: So?
49
204000
2000
那又怎样？
03:38
Marcus: So I've done my bit for Queen and country, now I work for myself.
50
206000
3000
我已经尽到了对女王、对国家的职责，现在我要为自己而活
03:41
Boy: No, now you sit around like a bum all day.
51
209000
2000
不，现在你就跟个流浪汉似的呆坐一整天
03:43
Marcus: Because I do what I like?
52
211000
3000
我就喜欢这样
03:46
Boy: Look man, reading don't feed no one.
53
214000
2000
兄弟啊，阅读喂不饱你的
03:48
And it particularly don't feed your spliff habit.
54
216000
2000
也不会给你带来大麻卷烟
03:50
Marcus: It feeds my mind and my soul.
55
218000
4000
阅读喂饱了我的思想和灵魂
03:54
Boy: Arguing with you is a waste of time, Marcus.
56
222000
7000
马库斯，跟你争执纯粹是浪费我的时间
04:01
Marcus: You’re a rapper, am I right?
57
229000
2000
你是说唱歌手？我说的对吗？
04:03
Boy: Yeah.
58
231000
1000
对
04:04
Marcus: A modern day poet.
59
232000
1000
现代诗人
04:05
Boy: Yeah, you could say that.
60
233000
1000
嗯，这样说也行
04:06
Marcus: So what do you talk about?
61
234000
2000
那你说的内容是什么？
04:08
Boy: What's that supposed to mean?
62
236000
2000
那是什么意思？
04:10
Marcus: Simple. What do you rap about?
63
238000
2000
很简单。你说唱的内容是什么？
04:12
Boy: Reality, man.
64
240000
2000
现实啊，兄弟
04:14
Marcus: Whose reality?
65
242000
1000
谁的现实
04:15
Boy: My fuckin' reality.
66
243000
2000
我的破烂现实
04:17
Marcus: Tell me about your reality.
67
245000
2000
跟我说说你的现实
04:19
Boy: Racism, oppression, people like me not getting a break in life.
68
247000
4000
种族歧视，消沉压抑，像我这样的人被生活压的喘不过气
04:23
Marcus: So what solutions do you offer? I mean, the job of a poet is not just --
69
251000
3000
那你有什么好办法？我是说，把作诗当成工作不只只...
04:26
Boy: Man, fight the power! Simple: blow the motherfuckers out of the sky.
70
254000
3000
兄弟，和权贵作斗争吧。很简单。把那些混账东西统统赶走
04:29
Marcus: With an AK-47?
71
257000
1000
用AK-47（武器）吗？
04:30
Boy: Man, if I had one, too fuckin' right.
72
258000
2000
如果我有的话，你就他妈的说对了，我一定会用的
04:32
Marcus: And how many soldiers have you recruited to fight this war with you?
73
260000
3000
你招来了多少兵来和你并肩作战呢？
04:35
Boy: Oh, Marcus, you know what I mean.
74
263000
3000
马库斯，你知道我的意思的
04:38
Marcus: When a man resorts to profanities,
75
266000
2000
当人满口粗言烂语的时候
04:40
it’s a sure sign of his inability to express himself.
76
268000
4000
就表示他没有能力清楚的表达自己
04:44
Boy: See man, you’re just taking the piss out of me now.
77
272000
3000
你看你，现在都把我惹毛了
04:47
Marcus: The Panthers.
78
275000
2000
美洲黑豹队
04:49
Boy: Panthers?
79
277000
1000
美洲黑豹队？
04:50
Ass kickin' guys who were fed up with all that white supremacist, powers-that-be bullshit,
80
278000
4000
那些操蛋的人，满脑子白人至上、权贵至上
04:54
and just went in there and kicked everybody's arse.
81
282000
3000
横冲直撞，无人不恨
04:57
Fuckin’ wicked, man. I saw the movie. Bad! What?
82
285000
4000
简直就是变态。我看过电影，太糟糕了！干嘛啊？
05:01
Director 1: I saw his last film.
83
289000
4000
我看了他最后的那部电影
05:05
Épuise, right?
84
293000
2000
才思枯竭了，对吧？
05:07
Woman 1: Yes.
85
295000
1000
对
05:08
D1: Not to make a bad joke, but it was really épuisé.
86
296000
7000
倒不是说他做的不好，就是有种枯竭的感觉
05:15
Epuisé -- tired, exhausted, fed up.
87
303000
7000
枯竭——疲惫，精疲力竭，厌烦了
05:22
Director 2: Can you not shut up?
88
310000
2000
你能不能闭上嘴啊？
05:24
Now, you talk straight to me, what’s wrong with my films?
89
312000
2000
现在，你直接跟我说吧，我的电影怎么了？
05:26
Let’s go.
90
314000
2000
来啊
05:28
W1: They suck.
91
316000
1000
糟透了
05:29
Woman 2: They suck? What about yours?
92
317000
2000
糟透了？那你的呢？
05:32
What, what, what, what about, what?
93
320000
3000
什么，什么，干嘛啊？
05:35
What do you think about your movie?
94
323000
2000
你觉得你的电影怎么样？
05:37
D1: My movies, they are OK, fine.
95
325000
2000
我的电影，他们还好，还不错
05:39
They are better than making documentaries no one ever sees.
96
327000
3000
他们比那些没人愿意看的纪录片好多了
05:42
What the fuck are you talking about?
97
330000
2000
你说什么鬼？
05:44
Did you ever move your fuckin' ass from Hollywood
98
332000
3000
你他妈有没有离开过好莱坞
05:47
to go and film something real?
99
335000
2000
去拍点真实的内容？
05:49
You make people fuckin' sleep.
100
337000
2000
你让观众昏昏欲睡
05:51
Dream about bullshit.
101
339000
2000
满脑子狗屁
05:53
(Applause)
102
341000
4000
（掌声）
05:57
Newton Aduaka: Thank you. The first clip, really, is
103
345000
5000
牛顿: 谢谢你们。我的第一个片段
06:02
totally trying to capture what cinema is for me,
104
350000
4000
是真正想抓住电影于我而言的意义
06:06
and where I'm coming from in terms of cinema.
105
354000
2000
置身电影世界，我从何而来？
06:08
The first piece was, really, there's a young woman talking about Nigeria,
106
356000
5000
第一个片段讲的是一个年轻妇女谈论尼日利亚
06:13
that she has a feeling she'll be happy there.
107
361000
3000
她觉得在那里她会很快乐
06:16
These are the sentiments of someone that's been away from home.
108
364000
3000
这是远离家乡的人的情感
06:19
And that was something that I went through, you know, and I'm still going through.
109
367000
3000
是我体验过、并且还在体验着的情感
06:22
I've not been home for quite a while, for about five years now.
110
370000
3000
我离家有好一段日子了，已经有5年左右的时间了
06:25
I've been away 20 years in total.
111
373000
2000
我在外的日子加起来有20年了
06:29
And so it’s really --
112
377000
3000
所以真的
06:32
it's really how suddenly, you know, this was made in 1997,
113
380000
6000
这部电影拍摄于1997年
06:38
which is the time of Abacha -- the military dictatorship,
114
386000
4000
这是阿巴查统治期间
06:42
the worst part of Nigerian history, this post-colonial history.
115
390000
5000
尼日利亚历史上最糟糕的日子，后殖民地时期
06:47
So, for this girl to have these dreams
116
395000
2000
对于这个女孩，拥有这样的梦想
06:49
is simply how we preserve a sense of what home is.
117
397000
4000
就是我们对家园的渴望
06:53
How -- and it's sort of, perhaps romantic, but I think beautiful,
118
401000
6000
有点浪漫吧，可是我觉得很美丽
06:59
because you just need something to hold on to,
119
407000
4000
因为你只是需要一个寄托
07:03
especially in a society where you feel alienated.
120
411000
3000
特别是在社会里，人们有疏离感
07:06
Which takes us to the next piece, where the young man
121
414000
3000
这把我们带到下一个片段，有个年轻人
07:09
talks about lack of opportunity: living as a black person in Europe,
122
417000
6000
说到在欧洲生活的黑人缺少机遇
07:15
the glass ceiling that we all know about, that we all talk about,
123
423000
4000
透明的玻璃天花板，我们都知道，都在谈论
07:19
and his reality.
124
427000
4000
他身上的真实经历
07:23
Again, this was my -- this was me talking about --
125
431000
2000
再一次，这是我在谈论
07:25
this was, again, the time of multiculturalism in the United Kingdom,
126
433000
4000
英国的多元文化的时候
07:29
and there was this buzzword -- and it was trying to say,
127
437000
3000
我想说的是这个术语
07:32
what exactly does this multiculturalism mean in the real lives of people?
128
440000
4000
多元文化对于人们的真实生活来说，有什么意义
07:36
And what would a child --
129
444000
3000
一个小孩子
07:39
what does a child like Jamie -- the young boy -- think,
130
447000
3000
像杰米这样的小孩子有着怎样的想法
07:42
I mean, with all this anger that's built up inside of him?
131
450000
4000
我是说，他的内心积累的愤怒
07:46
What happens with that?
132
454000
2000
会导致什么后果？
07:48
What, of course, happens with that is violence,
133
456000
2000
当然，后果就是暴力，这是
07:50
which we see when we talk about the ghettos
134
458000
4000
我们谈及犹太人得到的结论
07:54
and we talk about, you know, South Central L.A. and this kind of stuff,
135
462000
4000
我们谈及中南地区，洛杉矶等等
07:58
and which eventually, when channeled, becomes,
136
466000
3000
最终裂痕出现
08:01
you know, evolves and manifests itself as riots --
137
469000
5000
不断发展，以暴动的方式表现出来
08:06
like the one in France two years ago, where I live,
138
474000
4000
就像二年前，我在法国居住的时候发生的暴乱
08:10
which shocked everybody, because everyone thought, "Oh well,
139
478000
2000
震惊了所有人，因为大家都以为
08:12
France is a liberal society."
140
480000
2000
法国是个自由的社会
08:14
But I lived in England for 18 years.
141
482000
3000
可我在英格兰住了18年
08:17
I've lived in France for about four, and I feel actually
142
485000
3000
在法国住了4年，我感到
08:20
thrown back 20 years, living in France.
143
488000
5000
在法国住的时候，好像时光倒退了20年
08:25
And then, the third piece. The third piece for me is the question:
144
493000
3000
再看看第三个片段。第三个片段，于我而言，是这个问题：
08:28
What is cinema to you? What do you do with cinema?
145
496000
3000
电影对你意味着什么？你想通过电影表达什么？
08:31
There's a young director, Hollywood director, with his friends --
146
499000
8000
有个年轻的导演，好莱坞的导演，和他的朋友们一起
08:39
fellow filmmakers -- talking about what cinema means.
147
507000
3000
一群电影人一起讨论电影的意义
08:42
I suppose that will take me to my last piece --
148
510000
4000
我想这就是我做这个作品的出发点
08:46
what cinema means for me.
149
514000
2000
电影于我而言的意义
08:48
My life started as a -- I started life in 1966,
150
516000
4000
我出生的时候，我出生于1966年
08:52
a few months before the Biafran, which lasted for three years
151

那是历时三年之久的比亚法拉战争战争的前几个月
08:55
and it was three years of war.
152
523000
2000
接着就是三年的战乱
08:57
So that whole thing,
153
525000
3000
我的所有记忆
09:00
that whole childhood echoes and takes me into the next piece.

Commander: Soldiers, you are going to fight a battle,
157
597000
7000
战士们，你们即将走上战场
10:16
so you must get ready and willing to die.
158

3000
你们必须做好准备，甘愿牺牲
10:19
You must get -- ?

1000
你们必须
10:20
Child Soldiers: Ready and willing to die.
160
608000
3000
做好准备，甘愿牺牲
10:23
C: Success, the change is only coming through the barrel of the gun.
161
611000
6000
成功，变革唯有通过枪杆子才能实现
10:29
CS: The barrel of the gun!
162
617000
2000
通过枪杆子
10:31
C: This is the gun.
163
619000
1000
这就是枪
10:32
CS: This is the gun.
164
620000
4000
这就是枪
10:36
C: This is an AK-47 rifle. This is your life.
165
624000
2000
就是一支 AK47自动步枪。这就是你的生活
10:38
This is your life. This is ... this is ... this is your life.
166
626000
6000
这就是你的生活。这就是，这就是，这就是你的生活
10:44
Ezra: They give us the special drugs. We call it bubbles.
167
632000
3000
他们让我们吃一种特制的药物。我们称之为气泡

10:53
I say rain come, sun come, soldier man dey go.
170
641000
3000
雨落，日出，战士出生入死
10:56
We went from one village to another -- three villages.
171
644000
2000
我们从一个村庄来到另一个村庄，总共三个村庄
10:58
I don’t remember how we got there.
172
646000
2000
我记不得我们是怎么去到那里的
11:00
Witness: We walked and walked for two days.
173
648000
3000
我们走了两天
11:03
We didn't eat.
174
651000
2000
什么都没吃
11:05
There was no food, just little rice.
175
653000
4000
没有食物，只有一点点稻米
11:09
Without food -- I was sick.
176
657000
2000
没有食物，我病了
11:11
The injection made us not to have mind.
177
659000
3000
我们接受注射之后神志不清
11:14
God will forgive us.
178
662000
2000
上帝会原谅我们的
11:16
He knows we did not know. We did not know!
179
664000
3000
他知道我们并不知情。我们并不知情！
11:35
Committee Chairman: Do you remember January 6th, 1999?
180
683000
3000
你还记得1999年1月6日吗？
11:40
Ezra: I don’t remember.
181
688000
2000
我不记得了
11:42

will go a long way towards understanding the causes of the rebel war.

能够在一番努力之后，了解叛乱的源头
14:10
More than that, begin a healing process and finally to --

2000
更甚于此，开始整治，最终得以
14:12
as an act of closure to a terrible period in this country’s history.
220
840000
6000
结束这个国家历史上混乱不堪的时期
14:18
The beginning of hope.

14:19
Mr. Ezra Gelehun, please stand.

伊斯梅尔.格勒亨先生，请起立
14:31
State your name and age for the commission.
223
859000
5000
告诉委员会你的姓名和年龄
14:36
Ezra: My name is Ezra Gelehun.
224
864000
2000
我的名字是伊斯梅尔.格勒亨
14:38
I am 15 or 16. I don’t remember.
225
866000
4000
我15岁还是16岁，我已经记不得了
14:42
Ask my sister, she is the witch, she knows everything.
226
870000
5000
我的妹妹，她是个巫女，她无所不知
14:47
(Sister: 16.)
227
875000
5000
16岁
14:52
CC: Mr. Gelehun, I’d like to remind you you’re not on trial here
228
880000
3000
格勒亨先生，我想提醒你，你现在并不是
14:55
for any crimes you committed.
229
883000
2000
因为你犯下的罪行而受审
14:57
E: We were fighting for our freedom.
230
885000
2000
我们为我们的自由而战
14:59
If killing in a war is a crime,
231
887000
3000
如果战争中的杀戮是罪行
15:02
then you have to charge every soldier in the world.
232
890000
4000
那你就得起诉世界上的所有战士
15:06
War is a crime, yes, but I did not start it.
233
894000
4000
战争是罪行，是的，但我从未发起战争
15:10
You too are a retired General, not so?
234
898000
4000
你也是一个退役的将军，对吗？
15:14
CC: Yes, correct.
235
902000
2000
对，没错
15:16
E: So you too must stand trial then.
236
904000
2000
那你也必须受审
15:18
Our government was corrupt.
237
906000
4000
我们的政府腐败不堪
15:22
Lack of education was their way to control power.
238
910000
5000
剥夺教育是他们掌控权利的方式
15:27
If I may ask, do you pay for school in your country?
239
915000
3000
我想请问，你在你的国家需要付钱接受教育吗？
15:30
CC: No, we don’t.
240
918000
5000
不，我们不需要
15:35
E: You are richer than us.
241
923000
2000
你们比我们富有
15:37
But we pay for school.
242
925000
3000
可我们却要为教育付钱
15:41
Your country talks about democracy,
243
929000
2000
你们的国度满口民主
15:43
but you support corrupt governments like my own.
244
931000
4000
但你们却支持腐败的政府，比如说，我们的政府
15:47
Why? Because you want our diamond.
245
935000
3000
为什么?因为你们想要我们的钻石
15:50
Ask if anyone in this room have ever seen real diamond before?
246
938000
4000
你随便问问这里的任何一人，他见过真的钻石吗？
15:54
No.
247
942000
2000
没有
15:56
CC: Mr. Gelehun, I'd like to remind you, you're not on trial here today.
248
944000
6000
格勒亨先生，我想提醒你，你今天在此并不是受审
16:02
You are not on trial.
249
950000
1000
你并不是在受审
16:03
E: Then let me go.
250
951000
3000
那就放我走
16:06
CC: I can't do that, son.
251
954000
3000
我不能这么做，孩子
16:09
E: So you are a liar.
252
957000
2000
那你就是撒谎
16:11
(Applause)
253
959000
2000
（掌声）
16:13
NA: Thank you. Just very quickly to say that my point really here,
254
961000
3000
牛顿：谢谢。让我快速的谈谈我的重点
16:16
is that while we’re making all these huge advancements,
255
964000
2000
是当我们取得飞黄腾达的成就之际
16:18
what we're doing, which for me, you know, I think we should --
256
966000
6000
我们的所作所为，对于我来说，我认为我们应该
16:24
Africa should move forward, but we should remember,
257
972000
4000
非洲应该向前发展，可我们应该记住
16:28
so we do not go back here again.
258
976000
2000
我们便不会重蹈覆辙
16:30
Thank you.
259
978000
1000
谢谢
16:31
Emeka Okafor: Thank you, Newton.
260
979000
2000
埃梅卡.奥卡福：谢谢你，牛顿
16:33
(Applause)
261
981000
3000
（掌声）
16:36
One of the themes that comes through very strongly
262
984000
4000
一个感情强烈的主题
16:40
in the piece we just watched is this sense of the psychological trauma of the young
263
988000
10000
是我们在片断中看到的，年轻一代受到的心理创伤
16:50
that have to play this role of being child soldiers.
264
998000
5000
他们是孩子，是童军
16:55
And considering where you are coming from,
265
1003000
4000
想想你来自何方
16:59
and when we consider the extent to which it’s not taken as seriously
266
1007000
6000
当我们意识到他们受的伤害并未得到应有的重视之际
17:05
as it should be, what would you have to say about that?
267
1013000
4000
你有什么想说的吗？
17:09
NA: In the process of my research, I actually spent
268
1017000
3000
牛顿：在我调查的过程之中，实际上
17:12
a bit of time in Sierra Leone researching this.
269
1020000
3000
我花了一些时间在塞拉利昂研究这个
17:15
And I remember I met a lot of child soldiers --
270
1023000
5000
我记得我遇到了很多童军
17:20
ex-combatants, as they like to be called.
271
1028000
4000
曾经的战士，他们喜欢这样的称呼
17:26
I met psychosocial workers who worked with them.
272
1034000
5000
我遇到帮助他们的心理医生
17:31
I met psychiatrists who spent time with them,
273
1039000
3000
我遇到花时间在他们身上的心理咨询师
17:34
aid workers, NGOs, the whole lot.
274
1042000
3000
援助人员，非政府组织，很多人
17:37
But I remember on the flight back on my last trip,
275
1045000
4000
但是我记得在最后一趟回程上
17:41
I remember breaking down in tears and thinking to myself,
276
1049000
4000
我记得自己崩溃痛哭，不停的思考
17:45
if any kid in the West, in the western world,
277
1053000
6000
如果这些孩子们，如果在西方国家的任何一个孩子
17:51
went through a day of what any of those kids have gone through,
278
1059000
5000
有过非洲孩子都经历过的、仅仅一天的生活体验
17:56
they will be in therapy for the rest of their natural lives.
279
1064000
6000
他们的余生都离不开治疗了
18:02
So for me, the thought that we have all these children --
280
1070000
5000
所以于我而言，对于所有孩子们的思索
18:07
it’s a generation, we have a whole generation of children --
281
1075000
3000
这是一代人，我们有整整一代孩童
18:10
who have been put through so much psychological trauma or damage,
282
1078000
7000
被迫遭受如此严重的心理创伤
18:17
and Africa has to live with that.
283
1085000
2000
非洲不得不独自承受
18:19
But I’m just saying to factor that in,
284
1087000
2000
我希望能够念及他们
18:21
factor that in with all this great advancement,
285
1089000
3000
当我们取得各式伟大的成就之时，请念及他们
18:24
all this pronouncement of great achievement.
286
1092000
2000
当我们宣布我们取得伟大的成就的时候
18:28
That’s really my thinking.
287
1096000
2000
这就是我的真实想法
18:30
EO: Well, we thank you again for coming to the TED stage.
288
1098000

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Newton Aduaka - FilmmakerNewton Aduaka's award-winning Ezra, told through the eyes of a young boy in Sierra Leone, illuminates one of the most harrowing consequences of war: the recruitment of child soldiers.
Why you should listen
Born in Eastern Nigeria, Newton Aduaka and his family moved to Lagos in 1970 at the end of the Biafran War. In 1985 he left for England to study engineering, but discovered cinema. He graduated from the London International Film School in 1990, and in 1997 established Granite Film Works. In 2001, Aduaka's debut feature film, Rage, became the first wholly independently financed film by a black filmmaker in the history of British cinema to be released nationwide. It opened to critical acclaim. He has made many short films as well.
Between 2005 and 2007, he co-wrote, directed and executive-produced Ezra, his first non-independently funded film, for Arte France. The film won the Grand Jury Prize at several film festivals, including FESPACO, Durban, Amiens and Balafon, and was an official selection at Sundance and Cannes.
