061 | 真实的痛苦:宏大又微小 A Real Pain: Confronting Past in the Present

【聊了什么 The What】

「A Real Pain」是由我们很喜欢的杰西·艾森伯格(Jesse Eisenberg)编剧和导演的一部电影,讲述了两位性格迥异的表兄弟David(由艾森伯格饰演)和Benji(由基兰·卡尔金饰演)为纪念他们已故的祖母而一同前往波兰参加犹太传统之旅的故事。在波兰旅行期间,他们不仅探访祖母童年的家,还参观了华沙犹太区英雄纪念碑和马伊达内克集中营等历史遗迹。

这部电影像是一个隐形的视角,带着我们,跟堂兄弟俩一起走完了波兰黑暗之旅,电影中讨论了人的痛苦,或大或小,都同样真实——不仅是大屠杀的集体创伤,还有每个人无法消解的痛苦。

我们在这集播客聊了这部电影,以及几个女的如何思考和化解痛苦与创伤。

"A Real Pain" is a film written and directed by Jesse Eisenberg (who we kinda have crush on), telling the story of two cousins—David (played by Eisenberg) and Benji (played by Kieran Culkin)—who travel together to Poland on a Jewish heritage tour to honor their late grandmother. During their Polish journey, they visit their grandmother's childhood home and historical sites including the Warsaw Ghetto Heroes Monument and Majdanek concentration camp.

The film offers an intimate perspective, following the cousins through Poland's “dark tour.” It explores how pain—whether monumental or mundane—is equally real for those experiencing it, addressing not only the collective trauma of the Holocaust but also each person's unresolvable individual suffering.

In this episode, we discuss the film and how we, as women and friends, process and work through pain and trauma.
