2021年柏林電影節將頒發"中性獎項"

The organizers of the Berlin International Film Festival say they will stop awarding separate acting prizes to women and men beginning next year.

柏林國際電影節主辦方稱，他們將從明年起停止分別向男女演員頒發表演獎項。

Berlinale organizers said Monday the performance awards will be defined in a gender-neutral way at next year's festival, for which a physical event is planned.

柏林電影節主辦方8月24日稱，明年的電影節將在線下舉辦，並頒發不區分性別的表演獎。

The festival awards a Golden Bear for the best film and a series of Silver Bears, which until this year included best actor and best actress honors. Organizers said those prizes will be replaced with a Silver Bear for Best Leading Performance and a Silver Bear for Best Supporting Performance.

柏林電影節頒發最佳影片金熊獎和一系列銀熊獎，到今年爲止銀熊獎還包括最佳男演員和最佳女演員獎。主辦方表示，這些獎項將被最佳主角銀熊獎和最佳配角銀熊獎取代。

In a statement, the co-heads of the festival, Mariette Rissenbeek and Carlo Chatrian, said "not separating the awards in the acting field according to gender comprises a signal for a more gender-sensitive awareness in the film industry."

柏林電影節的共同負責人瑪麗特·裏森貝克和卡洛·查登在一份聲明中說：“不按性別區分表演獎蘊含着一個信號，意味着電影界的性別敏感意識增強了。”

At the same time, the Alfred Bauer Prize, which is named after the festival's founding director, will be permanently retired. The prize was suspended this year due to revelations about Bauer's role in the Nazis' moviemaking bureaucracy.

與此同時，以創辦柏林電影節的導演名字命名的阿爾弗雷德·鮑爾獎將永久取消。因爲鮑爾被曝出是納粹電影部門的成員，今年該獎項暫停頒發。

Commenting on the decision to hold a physical event next year, despite uncertainties due to the coronavirus pandemic, the two directors stressed the need for a "lively relationship with the audience."

儘管疫情帶來了不確定性，電影節依然決定明年舉行線下活動。兩位導演在評論這一決定時強調需要“和觀衆保持活躍關係”。

"In times of the corona pandemic, it has become even clearer that we still require analogue experience spaces in the cultural realm," they said, noting that other festivals have also resumed holding physical rather than virtual events.

他們表示：“在新冠疫情期間，很顯然我們仍然需要文化領域的模擬體驗。”他們指出，其他電影節也恢復了線下活動，而不再採用線上形式。

The 2021 festival is scheduled for Feb. 11-21. This year's festival was one of the last major events that took place before the coronavirus pandemic largely shut down public life in Germany.

2021年柏林電影節定於2月11日至21日舉行。今年的柏林電影節是在德國的社會生活因新冠疫情而大範圍停擺之前舉行的最後幾個大型活動之一。
