Abstract

Payal Kapadia’s feature debut, A Night of Knowing Nothing (2021), is at once a political chronicle of contemporary India, an ode to the intimate struggles of love, and a love letter to cinema. Winner of the Best Documentary award at Cannes, the film radically blurs the lines between fiction and documentary by using an epistolary narrative structure interspersed with multiple genres of staged and documentary footage, animation, news reportage, and home movies. In its promiscuous crossing of genre-boundaries and its critical citational ethics, A Night of Knowing Nothing does more than simply mobilize archive effects: it collates its own archive of loss and longing, resistance and repair.

一个一无所知的夜晚

帕亚尔·卡帕迪亚的处女作《一无所知之夜》(2021)既是当代印度的政治编年史，也是爱情中亲密斗争的颂歌，也是给电影的一封情书。这部电影获得了戛纳电影节最佳纪录片奖，它采用了一种书信体叙事结构，穿插了舞台和纪录片、动画、新闻报道和家庭电影等多种类型，彻底模糊了小说和纪录片之间的界限。在其混杂的体裁边界和批判性的引用伦理中，《一无所知之夜》不仅仅是简单地调动了档案效应:它整理了自己的失落与渴望、抵抗与修复的档案。
