The
Sessions 性福療程
榮獲2012日舞影展觀眾票選獎,性福療程敘述美國記者、詩人馬克布萊恩的故事,因為罹患小兒麻痺,全身上下他僅有三個部位的肌肉可以活動,右腳、脖子與下巴。
雖然布萊恩一生必須依賴一副鐵肺才得以生存,別以為這是個令人哀傷的故事,也不是勵志向上的故事,即使布萊恩克服小兒麻痺,畢業於加州柏克萊大學。這部電影要告訴你一個38歲的男人渴望與人交心、建立親密關係的故事。藉由性治療師的幫助,他體驗到心靈與肉體層面的愛情。這是一個觸動人心、尋求真愛的故事。
最有感觸的對白:「愛是個旅程。」

Winning
the audience award at 2012 Sundance Film Festival, the Sessions tells the story
of Mark O’Brien a journalist and a poet who was stricken with polio, leaving him
with only three working muscles in his body, his right foot, his neck and his
jaw.
No, this
is not a sad story of how O’Brien spent his life living in an iron lung nor an
inspiring story of how he overcame paralysis and graduated from UC Berkeley. It’s
about how a man at the age of 38 is longing for affection, intimacy and
connection. With help through a sex surrogate he experiences love physically
and emotionally. This is a feel good movie about searching for love.
The most
heartfelt dialogue, “Life is a journey.”
