第七届北京国际儿童电影展长片单元

入围影片选片简介：在世界的另一边长大

Growing Up Somewhere Else in the World

中文

2026年入选的作品中，家庭关系、亲情与离别是最集中的主题之一，同时也涉及校园关系、身份认同、社会偏见、孤独、迁徙、自然环境以及对未来的想象。有的孩子寻找失踪的父母，有的面对家庭变故和亲人离去，有的在校园中遭遇排斥与霸凌，也有孩子通过旅行、冒险和跨文化交流认识更大的世界。

在形式上，本单元不局限于传统的儿童冒险故事，而涵盖现实主义、喜剧、奇幻、冒险、成长电影及纪录片等不同类型。影片中的儿童既生活在具体的家庭和社区，也进入荒野、异国、幻想世界甚至历史记忆之中。现实生活中的困难与儿童特有的想象力相互交织，使“成长”不只是一个抽象的主题，而成为一次次具体的选择、冲突、失去与重新认识世界的过程。

Among the films selected for the 2026 edition, family relationships, love and separation emerge as some of the most prominent themes. The films also explore school relationships, identity, social prejudice, loneliness, migration, the natural environment, and children’s imagination of the future. Some children search for missing parents; others face family changes and the loss of loved ones. Some encounter exclusion or bullying at school, while others discover a wider world through travel, adventure, and cross-cultural encounters.

In terms of form, the selection goes beyond conventional children’s adventure stories, encompassing realism, comedy, fantasy, adventure, coming-of-age films, and documentaries. The children in these films live within their families and communities, but also venture into the wilderness, foreign countries, imaginary worlds, and even memories of the past. The difficulties of everyday life intertwine with the distinctive imagination of childhood, making “growing up” more than an abstract theme. It becomes a process of making choices, facing conflicts, experiencing loss, and gradually discovering the world anew.
