當新聞離開之後，故事還會繼續。
What happens after the headlines fade?
活動介紹 Event Description
Tipsy Talks 微醺講堂第10場，我們將放映紀錄短片剪輯版《雨後，光復 Beyond the Headlines》，帶大家走進花蓮光復鄉，看見災後重建中那些較少被看見的故事。
2024 年花蓮地震以及 2025 年洪水，讓光復鄉成為媒體關注的焦點。然而，當鏡頭離開之後，當地居民與小型業者面對的挑戰並未因此結束。除了修復家園，他們還必須重建外界對地方的信心，讓旅客願意再次回到這片土地。
本片由旅居台北的英國研究者與記者 Laura Bonsaver 執導，透過民宿經營者、早餐店老闆、在地居民等受訪者的視角，記錄光復鄉如何一步一步走向復原，也探討災後觀光、地方經濟與社區韌性的更深層議題。
映後，Laura 將親自分享拍攝歷程，包括她如何透過長期駐點與在地建立關係、主要以英文進行訪談，以及完成這部首部獨立紀錄片的幕後故事。
For our 10th edition of Tipsy Talks, we're showing an early edit screening of Beyond the Headlines (雨後，光復), a work-in-progress short documentary exploring recovery, resilience, and the human stories behind disaster reporting.
Set in Guangfu Township, Hualien, the film follows local residents and business owners as they rebuild their lives in the aftermath of recent disasters. While the 2024 Hualien earthquake and the 2025 floods brought significant media attention to the region, this documentary focuses on a quieter, less visible challenge: restoring confidence, attracting visitors back, and rebuilding livelihoods once the cameras have gone.
Directed by Taipei-based independent researcher and journalist Laura Bonsaver, the film offers an intimate perspective on a community determined not to be defined solely by disaster. Through conversations with guesthouse owners, small business operators, and local residents, Beyond the Headlines asks an important question:
How can communities recover not only physically, but socially and economically, after a crisis?
Following the screening, Laura will join us for a discussion on documentary storytelling, disaster narratives, community resilience, and the process of creating her first independent documentary.
