据法新社报道,四名香港电影人拍摄了首部反映美国“棱镜”项目泄密人斯诺登泄密情况的电影。

这部5分钟左右的惊悚片自周二登陆YouTube视频网站以来,已经获得了超过8500次的浏览量。

据报道,尽管这部小成本影片的拍摄时间不到一周,拍摄者尽力还原了斯诺登在香港期间的种种境遇,拍摄地点就包括传言中斯诺登的藏身之处美丽华酒店。

制片人之一的埃德温?李表示,拍摄此片的目的在于跟上人们“对斯诺登的兴趣和对香港的关注”。同时,他还表示,成为第一个拍摄斯诺登电影的人,感觉真爽。

Four Hong Kong filmmakers have beaten Hollywood to the draw by producing the first film on fugitive U.S. intelligence leaker Edward Snowden, reported AFP.

"To be the first one to really do anything about it... it was quite invigorating," cinematographer and editor Edwin Lee said about the five-minute YouTube video which gets its title from the code name Snowden gave himself -- "Verax".

The thrill, using local actors and shaky camera work reminiscent of the Bourne movie series, imagines the drama which must have unfolded in Hong Kong leading up to Snowden's bombshell leaks on vast US surveillance programs.

Snowden, 30, abandoned his high-paying job as an IT technician contracted to the National Security Agency (NSA) and went to Hong Kong on May 20.

During his hiding in the southern Chinese city, he issued a series of leaks on the NSA's global gathering of phone call logs and Internet data, including in Chinese mainland and Hong Kong.

"This is a spy movie that's developing," Lee said of the inspiration behind the idea.

Production for the film took place at breakneck pace as drama, diplomatic intrigue and tensions around Snowden unfolded in Hong Kong.

Snowden flew from Hong Kong last Sunday to Moscow, despite Washington having submitted a request for his arrest and extradition.

Russian authority says Snowden has been in the transit zone of Moscow's Sheremetyevo airport since he arrived on a flight from Hong Kong on Sunday but he has not appeared in public.
