影迷点评:
ofelia11 说:东非之国肯尼亚因为茶叶的种植和贸易而改变的人民,遇到的改变是所有发展中国家都免不了的困境:殖民历史、少数民族、劳工保护、性工作者的安全乃至童工的使用,这一系列的连锁问题不止是经济发展所要付出的代价。在忧虑的同时,有一群好心人和正义之士在默默付出,努力改善,这是让人觉得欣喜和安慰的地方。
莫歌 说:依然是以茶叶为导火索,投射东非的被殖民历史、艾滋病猖獗、贫穷与童工现象。茶叶帮助当地人脱贫,继而成为唯一的救命稻草。人们不假思索投身于此,进一步加剧教育缺位。人无远虑,必有近忧,可连近忧都堪堪幸存的群体又谈何远虑?茶叶用微薄的希望把当地人囚禁在这片土地上,困于恶性循环的贫穷悖论。
לִי 说:Simon的纪录片一看就不能停 Africa is completely another world... 当地传染病、召妓和童工将我对非洲的幻想衬托得幼稚又不堪一击。我们品一口茶,背后是一天摘12公斤茶叶却只赚1英镑不到,但除此之外只有卖淫一条生存手段的当地女性;然而她说,请不要可怜我们,买我们的茶叶,这比可怜我们更要紧... 太心碎了
