'Shenzhou 13' Documentary Screening
Our school was delighted to host a community film appreciation event on the evening of 25th February 2026, featuring the screening of the acclaimed documentary " Shenzhou 13" (窗外是藍星). Held in the school hall, the primary purpose of the event was to foster a deeper appreciation for the remarkable advancements in aerospace science developed in our country, China.
About the Film
"Beyond the Blue Sky" is China's first 8K ultra-high definition film shot in space. Captured by the crew of the Shenzhou-13 mission during their orbit, the film uses astronaut Wang Yaping's perspective as its narrative thread. It authentically documents historic moments, including their scientific experiments in the space station, extravehicular activities, and the experience of spending the Spring Festival in space. The film offers audiences a profound exploration of the astronauts' inner worlds and their philosophical reflections on the cosmos.
A Meaningful Community Initiative
The primary purpose of the event was to foster a deeper appreciation within our community for the remarkable advancements in aerospace science developed in our country, China. As a community service, our school opened its doors to the public free of charge, and we were thrilled to welcome over 80 participants. The audience included our students, their parents, and residents from the wider Siu Sai Wan district, reflecting a strong shared interest in our nation's space exploration milestones.
Student Reflection
The film deeply moved our students, prompting profound personal reflection. One of our participants, student 5A Chu Ho Wang, eloquently captured his thoughts on the movie, writing:
大大小小一藍星
“大小之辯”是我們人類恆古以來的命題，幾千年兜兜轉轉，還是轉到了這一天——猴子衝出培育他們的搖籃的那一天。
我想，《窗外是藍星》這部電影，並不單止是中國航天的歷史見證，而是屬於全人類的。爲什麽？說思想跳躍，它不像路蘭《星際啓示錄》一樣跨越星系宇宙時空，也不像BBC《宇宙》記錄片一樣充滿深邃的理論知識；但它還是一部紀錄片。
它是一部充滿人類在星河面前的軟弱、剛强、歡笑、淚水的真實紀錄片。
在王亞平的聲音導航下，我們一步步回顧神州十三號的發射到重返大氣層的艱難過程，而最爲震撼的場景還是我們藍星地上喜馬拉雅山脈、孤身寶島、以及晚上散落遍地的人類光火。它們用宇宙的殘酷無邊作背景，微小地發光、發亮。“這個星球上，有我至愛的一切。” 她是這樣說的。
我覺得這微小的感覺真奇妙。
明知在我們的頭頂，有漫天繁星，明知我們就是塵埃，我們在地上還是為不同的事情奔波，每天經歷喜怒哀樂和悲歡離合，甚至繼續用科學探索外太空。這一切有什麽意義？我自問。
“媽，我想你了！”在經歷了喝水、微生物污染、艙外活動等太空站生活的困難後，王亞平面對親人天地兩隔，卻輕輕一笑，回以一個暖心承諾：“媽媽給你摘星星回來。”看到這裏我就明白了。
人性光輝，既大既小。大，在孤獨又陌生的宇宙裏面，它是我們互相支持的動力；其中的承諾、陪伴，便是這虛空擁有一絲光亮的原因。小，顧名思義：在十萬光年的銀河星系面前，我們算什麽？我們該用生命去學習的是，我們沒有日常想象中那樣的重要，但同時也沒有我們日常想象中那樣的冰冷。所謂哲理，便是這樣的一堂課。
這一次，這堂課由神州十三號航天員的經歷講了出來；它讓我們細察四周，發覺這堂課無處不在。星宿如是，命運如是，感動如是。就讓我們互相勉勵，上好這堂漫漫長課。
The evening was a resounding success, providing a meaningful platform for intergenerational dialogue. It successfully strengthened community bonds through a shared appreciation for national pride and the profound human story behind China's remarkable achievements in space exploration.
