《寻至红花(Flower Found)》由荷兰导演乔恩·李乌韦林克(Jorn Leeuwerink)制作,于2017年10月18日在阿姆斯特丹动画节上首映,随即于布鲁塞尔国际动画电影节、斯图加特国际动画节等斩获多项大奖。短片讲述了一群动物以“寻找红花”为目标,由共同的道德意识聚集起来形成群体。其本意为行使正义,却在遭遇诸多阻碍后,走向了集体无意识,做起了违背正义之事。短片中动物形象分明且内涵深刻。文章将从故事发展主线——“红花”入手,分析动物的形象书写及其蕴含的隐喻特征,进而体悟“群体”在非理性引导下的现实困境及反思自身的警示意义。Flower Found, produced by Dutch director Jorn Leeuwerink, premiered at the Amsterdam Animation Festival on 18 October 2017, and immediately won several awards at the Brussels International Animated Film Festival and the Stuttgart International Animation Festival. The short film tells the story of a group of animals, who come together to form a community with a common moral sense, with the goal of “finding the red flower”. Their original intention is to exercise justice, but after encountering many obstacles, they go towards collective unconsciousness and do something against justice. The animals in the short film are distinct and profound. The article will start from the main story line—“red flower”, analyze the image of animal writing and its metaphorical characteristics, and then understand the reality of the group’s predicament under the guidance of irrationality and reflect on its own warning significance and the warning significance of reflecting on oneself.
