【劇情】
菲律賓青年艾力克斯從未見過父親,母親則在他幼時離家到台灣幫傭,斷絕音訊多年後,他才得知母親已於他鄉落地生根,來台後他在偶然間遇見泰雅族青年傑瑞,兩人隨即成為心有靈犀的莫逆之交,在得知傑瑞因自己的同志身分而近鄉情怯後,艾力克斯鼓勵傑瑞回到家鄉對父母坦承自我,也觸動自己內心深處尋找母親的渴望,兩人交織出一段超越性向並探索自我的真摯情誼。

擅長描寫同志情感的菲律賓導演佐薩利多奧塔利荷斯受到台灣文化吸引,進而創作出將背景設於台灣並來台拍攝的新作,透過不同國家、種族、性向的角色對比,凸顯人類共通的根源與情感。

Tale of the Lost Boys is a story of a friendship between two men—Alex the Filipino and Jerry the Taiwanese aborigine. Alex arrived in Taipei from Manila. He met Jerry and soon realized Jerry’s homosexuality. Nonetheless, they became fast friends and decided to go on a road trip to Yilan, the northeast of Taiwan and where Jerry’s hometown is. Alex’s mother left him for Taiwan for work when he was little. They had been out of touch for a long time. Jerry stayed away from home for being gay. He couldn’t live a fake life but was tormented by feeling exiled. The trip made them connect and reconnect with their respective mothers and realize a certain sense of identity.

【導演的話】
根據考古和人類學的著名理論「出台灣說」,許多東南亞甚至紐西蘭的原住民都是來自台灣的移民。

我也觀察到,許多字詞在菲律賓語和台灣原住民語是一模一樣的,台灣和菲律賓的密切連結顯而易見。

許多菲律賓人離開自己的孩子,前往台灣做保母,但除此之外,菲律賓人和台灣在許多方面都是緊密相連的,這部電影就是在探討這些連結、我們的根和身分認同。

There is a theory that a number of emigrants from Taiwan went out to Southeast Asia and, even, New Zealand. Many words in Tagalog, Filipino and Taiwanese aboriginal languages are exactly the same. So, there really is a connection between Taiwan and the Philippines. Beyond the fact that many Filipino nannies work in Taiwan, leaving their children at home to take care of others’ abroad, Filipinos and Taiwanese are also connected in many other ways. This film is about those connections, our roots and identities.
