伊萨卡

《伊萨卡》是根据美国作家威廉·萨洛扬（ William Saroyan）1943年的长篇小说《人间喜剧》（The Human Comedy）改编的，故事围绕着居住在加州小镇“伊萨卡”的14岁少年荷马（Homer Macauley）展开，哥哥去欧洲作战后，家中就剩下他来照顾妈妈、姐姐以及4岁的弟弟尤利西斯（Ulysses）。荷马是小镇上的自行车电报送信员，在1942年的那个春夏，他为小镇上的居民送去了无数承载着爱、痛苦、死亡以及希望的消息，也从一个男孩成长为了男子汉。Fourteen-year-old Homer Macauley is determined to be the best and fastest bicycle telegraph messenger anyone has ever seen. His older brother has gone to war, leaving Homer to look after his widowed mother, his older sister and his 4-year-old brother, Ulysses. And so it is that as spring turns to summer, 1942, Homer Macauley delivers messages of love, hope, pain... and death... to the good people of Ithaca. And Homer Macauley will grapple with one message that will change him forever. Based on Pulitzer Prize-winning author William Saroyan's 1943 novel, The Human Comedy, ITHACA is a coming-of-age story about the exuberance of youth, the abruptness of change, the sweetness of life, the sting of death, and the sheer goodness that lives in each and every one of us.
