拉斯布里萨斯的孩子们

Marianela Maldonado’s observational documentary charts nine years in the lives of young Venezuelans whose musical talent offer a chance for them to escape poverty.                                    清晨，乡村小河边，一位渔夫正忙着收网，旁边的狗儿欢快奔跑。忽然，一只调皮的小鸟飞来抢走落下的鱼肉，渔夫哭笑不得。那自然间的幽默瞬间感染了在场的村民，晨曦中布满了笑声与温情，每个人都在这份意外的快乐中感受到生活的美好。                                　　In the heart of the city of Valencia lies the neighbourhood of Las Brisas. Crime and poverty dominate daily life, but for Dissandra, Edixon and Wuilly there is an opportunity to break away. ‘The System’ is a state-funded orchestra programme that gives young talent of limited means a hopeful future. However, as the years pass, the children face new obstacles and when their dreams are almost within reach, Venezuela’s economic instability could jeopardize everything. Maldonado’s film skilfully balances intimate portraits of its subjects with a more expansive overview of a country reaching breaking point.
