《Belau - Towards the dawn 航向黎明》| 帛琉紀事 Palau Documentary Short | 中文字幕版
帛琉共和國
位於赤道北緯7度的太平洋島國，屬於密克羅尼西亞島嶼聯邦，人口約1萬8千人，2012年列為世界文化遺產，是世界知名的海洋天堂島。
自然生態豐富以外，且保有傳統海島文化，當地以”BUL”的古語來傳承環境永恆的生活方式。觀光業為主要的經濟命脈，潛水旅遊產業世界聞名，連續多年被評為人生必去的國家之一。
席捲全球的新型冠狀病毒“Covid-19”從未停止，如今已波及196個國家中的191個。
帛琉共和國是少數未受感染的國家之一，是一個以旅遊產業為主要經濟命脈的島國。
少了遊客的海洋有任何變化嗎？
帛琉島民心中是否還存在任何希望？
疫情究竟給帛琉帶來了怎樣的變化？
雖然人去縷空，地球終於得以休養生息，疫情至今我們留在帛琉紀錄著，那些途中遇到或正在發生的鳥事就通通丟到海裡，只想分享我們的所見所學，一部短片記錄了帛琉樸實無華的自然美景、帛琉人民面臨的問題、以及旅遊業者對於未來的盼望。
如果你計畫來旅遊，不妨先看看，如果你對我們的故事感興趣，也別忘了追蹤我們，未來持續會有更多作品分享給大家。
Republic of Palau
Located at 7 degrees north of the equator, the Pacific island country belongs to the Federated States of Micronesia Islands, with a population of about 18,000. It was listed as a World Heritage in 2012 and is a world-renowned ocean paradise island.
In addition to the rich natural ecology, it also retains the traditional island culture. The local community inherits the eternal lifestyle of the environment with the old saying "BUL". Tourism is the main economic lifeline, and the diving tourism industry is world-renowned, and has been rated as one of the must-go countries in life for many years.
The novel coronavirus "Covid-19" that has swept the world has never stopped, and has now spread to 191 of 196 countries.
The Republic of Palau is one of the few uninfected countries. It is an island country with tourism as its main economic lifeline.
Is there any change in the oceans without tourists?
Is there any hope in the hearts of Palau islanders?
What changes has the epidemic brought to Palau?
Although tourists are gone, the earth was finally able to recuperate. So far we have stayed in Palau to record the epidemic, and all of stressing we’ve been facing were thrown into the sea. We just want to share what we have seen and learned, a short film record. It reflects the unpretentious natural beauty of Palau, the problems faced by the people of Palau, and the hope of the tourism industry for the future.
If you plan to travel, you might as well take a look first. If you are interested in our story, don't forget to follow us. There will be more works to share with you in the future.
