Utilising a striking, minimalist, cool-toned black-and-white aesthetic paired with hypnotic extended long takes, LI crafts a hybrid narrative format that hovers brilliantly between fiction and documentary.
An unnamed young protagonist wanders through a decaying, alienated cityscape, embarking on a shape-shifting journey of self-discovery through a string of anonymous hook-ups. In a fascinating psychological game of survival and desire, the youth chameleonically adopts the persona and traits of his last lover for his next encounter. Interlaced with cross-cultural encounters—including a Persian poet, a Thai immigrant, and a Black actor—the film unfolds through raw, post-coital dialogues where language, trauma, and political memory are intimately exchanged. As he drifts between deep empathy and stark ideological clashes with his lovers, the protagonist's own sense of self remains fluid, fragmented, and beautifully undefined.
By stripping away the conventional mechanics of romance, Queerpanorama turns the intimate space of the bedroom into a battleground for modern social structures. It stands as an evocative, unflinching exploration of how macro-politics and micro-desires intersect, offering a profoundly resonant portrait of identity in an increasingly fractured world. LI’s latest feature cements his status as one of the most vital and daring voices in contemporary Asian queer cinema.

香港導演李駿碩於 2025 年推出的最新劇情長片《眾生相》,隨即入選第 75 屆柏林影展「電影大觀」單元進行全球首映,並在首映後迅速售出多國發行權,展現出跨文化的藝術共鳴。李駿碩延續其對邊緣群體與城市底層的敏銳觀察,在本作中首度大膽嘗試極簡、冷冽的黑白影像與長鏡頭語言,構築出一種介於虛構與紀錄之間的自傳式開放結構。
故事圍繞一名無名青年展開,他在傾頹而疏離的城市中漫遊,透過與不同階級、族群與身分的陌生男子發生關係,逐步拼湊自我認同的碎片。他與波斯詩人、泰國移民、黑人演員等不同背景的人相識,在性愛之後的對話裡交換語言、經歷與記憶,在慾望與孤獨之間反覆擺盪,也讓自我認同成為一個持續流動而無法定義的問題。
本片大膽翻轉了傳統同志浪漫電影的公式,特意將性愛場景去戲劇化,轉而將事後的私密床榻轉化為微觀慾望與宏觀政治角力的當代戰場。導演透過日常交談與微妙的語感誤解,敏銳地描繪出當代都市中被忽視的情感流動。
本片將與短片《我朋友的故事》同場聯映。
