某次市政考察，彼時尚在苗博雅議員辦公室工作的黃信瑋導演首次造訪六張犁公墓。低矮的石碑散列在雜草叢生的土丘，這裡有兩百餘座墓塚屬於戒嚴時代的受難者。被眼前所見震撼的黃信瑋開始思考，如果這些被埋葬於此的受難者能活到今日，台灣是否會生長成不同的模樣？

“As the saying goes, in martial arts, speed is everything.” To me, short animation is more than a space for experimentation and self-training—it’s where ideas are rapidly tested within limited duration, using refined visuals and sound to cut straight to the essence of storytelling. One night, I watched several shorts in a row—dreamlike and surreal, blending the absurd with realism, tenderness, and wit. Though brief and diverse in style, they leave a lasting emotional and intellectual resonance. They convinced me that short animation is a contemporary craft of speed, precision, and impact—striking straight to the core.
Those stifled thoughts, arts, and cultures once withered in the corners without a sound, only to sprout again after the darkness. Under a government warped out of shape, people find themselves enclosed in layers of fear. So is it cogito, ergo sum—I think, therefore I am—or is it only when I speak that I truly exist?
Sometimes, you’re drawn back to the scene by an unseen force—treading carefully, almost fearfully. The crime scenes where bloodstains have long been washed away, the streets where fervent slogans have faded, and the lives forever frozen in a single moment of history—all compel creators to pick up the pen, to lift the camera, and to tell their stories in countless ways. Rooted in reality, the act of creation becomes a delicate balance. Is it a faithful record, an excavation of truth? A transformation of reality? Or a search for meaning in the present? Imagination may run wild, but what is the thread that keeps pulling him back—again and again—to the real?
