Die Welle

The Wave (original: Die Welle) is a German movie that is based on the experiment The Third Wave. The remake was quite successful in German theatres, and after 10 weeks 2.3 million people watched the film. The director of the film is Dennis Gansel and it starred Jürgen Vogel, Max Riemelt, Jennifer Ulrich, Jacob Matschenz and Frederick Lau.

The Third Wave was an experimental demonstration of nazism movement undertaken by history teacher Ron Jones with sophomore high school students attending his Contemporary History class as part of a study of Nazi Germany. The experiment took place at Cubberley High School in Palo Alto, California, during first week of April 1967. Jones, unable to explain to his students how the German populace could claim ignorance of the extermination of the Jewish people, decided to show them instead. Jones started a movement called "The Third Wave" and convinced his students that the movement is to eliminate democracy.
劉老師在班上介紹同學們看這部片,我已經不記得為甚麼說到這個了,好像是說到組織文化的時候吧,只記得老師之前看完後推薦的。我昨晚看了,你也知道,當然是好看才會介紹的啦。至於有什麼好看呢?從這部片,不管是民主或專制的體系,沒有一種制度是完美的,這好像是廢話,但是重點是它突顯了「魚從來不知道她活在水中,直到被捕起來攤在陽光下的那一刻」。

我們活在民主制度中,即使我們偶爾會因為制度而感到那麼一點點「本來就是這樣啊!」的無奈,但是仔細想想,其實所謂的本來並不存在,本來永遠被未來的人扭曲並稱之為「本來」。覺醒(Awareness)是重要的,它是我們前進的動力。因為覺醒,我們開始走不一樣的路,創造不一樣的未來,但是未來也是虛無的概念,沒有好的未來,沒有壞的未來,沒有未來,只有當下。
