從此刻回望，748施行法也是所謂的同婚專法已通過三年多，本片於2018年入選第五屆台灣國際酷兒影展，同年末保守勢力和護家盟支持的第十案公投，將近八百萬人同意民法的婚姻限定一男一女的結合。 平權運動的路還很漫長，在專法實行之前就陪著同志基督徒和直同志的牧者們，一直試著告訴眾人，神愛世人的真理，卻因此被視為異端⋯⋯ 也許牧者們認為這是他們使命，但對很多人來說是一種信仰的救贖。
南方影展在 2012 年起至今由「財團法人育合春教育基金會」 贊助創辦「人權關懷獎」，期望鼓勵當年度挖掘人權議題、促進社會平等的入圍影片，曾獲選作品包括觸及同志婚姻平權的《牧者》 與《我和我的 T 媽媽》、推進司法改革的《徐自強的練習題》、紀錄原住民認同與部落文化的《排灣人撒古流：十五年後》等。 —— 節錄自王振愷《光源下放電影：南方影展二十年》，頁167 https://www.books.com.tw/products/0010926050
2014 年，繼台灣的太陽花運動後，香港的雨傘運動也震撼世界。這個以「真普選」為訴求的公民運動，以年輕人為中堅主力，引發數十萬人上街聲援，許多人都是首次走上街頭。幾年之後，多部相關紀錄片陸續問世，毫無疑問，陳梓桓的《亂世備忘》仍是其中最⋯⋯

Faith is a dwelling place of the heart—a quiet sense of belonging, of ease, of return. Do you believe the world is kind to you today? Have you ever wondered why you were born into this world? As a part of nature, of all living things—where do you stand?
This year’s Queer Film Festival poses a timely question to society: Boundless, limitless, borderless—can gender, and the existence or absence of it, become a plural possibility? Under the theme of “Endless Love” and “Infinite Love,” the festival explores diverse expressions of love and sexuality through cinema. Whether grounded in reality or born in the virtual, gender will be redefined and renegotiated. Through the performance and context of gender, the body becomes a vessel of both flesh and spirit. Humanity expresses its desires, orientations, and identities—blending, shifting, and converging into the infinite (∞): the limitless, the boundless, the ever-expanding potential of plurality. These shifting terrains of the body, desire, gender, and the fluid interplay of yin and yang give rise to a multitude of gendered possibilities. In this reimagined world, love, sexuality, and human connection are no longer subjects of discrimination, distortion, or stigma. Instead, we envision a new and beautiful future of infinite love—one that celebrates what it means to be fully, freely human.
What is Taiwan? What does Taiwan have? Our imagination of Taiwan’s future depends on how we choose to read Taiwan. The Taiwanese documentaries selected by Giloo aim to offer a multifaceted and in-depth perspective—allowing us to empathize with the struggles and efforts of the Taiwanese people, uncover the richness of this land, confront its challenges, and analyze the issues that shape life on this island.
In 2021, two years after the legalization of same-sex marriage in Taiwan, nearly 6,000 same-sex couples have tied the knot. That same year, Japan saw a historic breakthrough when the Sapporo District Court ruled that banning same-sex marriage was unconstitutional—the first such ruling in the country’s history. Today’s East Asia may appear to be making epoch-defining progress, but every step forward has been paved by those who came before—people who have lived boldly and brilliantly through eras of repression, exclusion, and shame. It is through their relentless struggle that society has opened up, however slightly. From The Wedding Banquet (1993) to Until Rainbow Dawn (2019), what has Taiwan and Japan gone through over the past 26 years in terms of gender and societal shifts? And as children of these histories, how much of ourselves do we see reflected on screen?
