25 歲的小桃(伊藤沙莉飾)有著平凡的工作、戀情跟生活,但她有一個從未跟別人說過的秘密:「我好想死。」在日本,帕帕基諾(Papageno)指的是曾經考慮自殺,但選擇活下去的人們。在這些帕帕基諾的旅程中,慢慢發覺除了結束生命之外,是不是還有其他選擇的可能性?
Twenty-five-year-old Momo has friends. She sometimes goes out for dinner with her parents. She's dating an acceptable guy. When she goes out for drinks with colleagues after work, she keeps things nice and civil. This perfectly ordinary life means Momo doesn't immediately notice a nagging feeling: that she wants to die. She begins to visit other people who struggle with suicidal thoughts but have discovered alternatives and now choose to live instead. She connects with these "Papagenos" on social media. Over the course of her difficult journey, Momo herself begins to discover choices other than death.
後藤怜亜於2010年加入NHK(日本放送協會)。2016年她開始參與社會福利節目《Heart Net TV》的製作。到了2020年她加入了一個專案,目的是透過想手語讓NHK的電視內容更容易被理解和接觸。
她製作過的優秀節目包括《TV for the Sake of Living》,關注表達自殺意念的年輕人;《#On the Night of August 31st》結合了電視、直播和社交媒體,為有自殺傾向的青少年提供了一個能夠勇敢分享感情的空間,以及《不去上班的那天》利用帕帕基諾效應,探討了在新冠疫情期間的自殺現象。
*帕帕基諾效應:媒體若能在報導自殺新聞或是負面社會新聞案件時,加入可以得到協助及求助諮詢的管道資訊,就可能降低模仿效應風險。
Gotoh Lea joined NHK in 2010. In 2016, she began working on the social-welfare program “Heart Net TV”. In 2020, she joined the production team for a project that makes NHK television content more accessible through sign language.
Her standout programs include “Ikiru Tame No Telebi” (TV for the Sake of Living), which reaches out to young people who have expressed suicidal feelings; “#On the Night of August 31st” which combined TV, a livestream, and social media to create a place where suicidal teenagers could share their feelings without fear; and “Watashi Wa Papageno”(Momo and the Seven Papagenos), which tackles suicidal feelings in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic by leveraging the Papageno effect (the influence that mass media can have by responsibly reporting on suicide and presenting non-suicide alternatives to crises).
