THE LINGUISTS follows David Harrison and Gregory Anderson, scientists racing to document languages on the verge of extinction. David and Greg’s round-the-world journey takes them deep into the heart of the cultures, knowledge, and communities at stake. In Siberia, David and Greg seek to record the Chulym language, which hasn’t been heard by outsiders for more than thirty years....
观众心声
it's not only about language, it's about what's right/ good.
一线语言记录工作者的奋斗以及濒危语种的挣扎。 不系统也不精致，最大的价值是提供了一个视角与记录。
导演来学校screening的时候放的，一个人的language attrition可以组成一整个人类社会的language loss，其实很painful。
紀錄片都咁靚！Linguists萬歲。「我會說某語言，我會自己跟自己說，因為都沒人明白了。」最後一幕說Chulym的好心傷啊。
“Language is a great part of your culture, and a great part of identity of who we are as people."
