The cradle of the modern world, letterpress printing, is now an endangered craft.
Why, and how has it survived in an era of digitals? PRESSING ON: THE LETTERPRESS FILM is a fascinating and surprisingly moving documentary funded by Kickstarter that follows a group of young printers and letterpress veterans, striving to preserve the myriad of personalities behind blocks of wood, metal, and type - a poetic reflection on the rapid digitalization of today. Official selection at International Design Film Festival.
活版印刷，一凹一凸，每一次油漆刷過版面都是心血，都是骨肉。
大概我們都敗給了速度。在這個速食社會，人與人的連繫，全然存放在雲端之中，再深情的情話，都不過原始碼，欠缺溫度，欠缺耐性。我們都忘了，活版印刷，曾經是中國四大發明之一，也在香港的印刷史上留下過輝煌的一頁。數碼化的來臨，我們贏得了時間，但這個城市總是有點冷。
幸好，在美國還有一班執迷不悔的收藏家，如數家珍地保衛買少見少的活版印刷機及粒粒字模；亦有一班年青人趁著市集興起投入活版印刷全手感的創作，創作出一批又一批精心製作投入市場，紙上的一字一句，都洋溢著個性與靈魂……
