In December 2019, a large-scale outbreak of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) emerged in Wuhan, China. Within just a few months, the virus rapidly spread across the globe, with the number of infections and deaths climbing relentlessly. As of today, over 150 million people worldwide have been infected, and more than 3.3 million lives have been lost. How did this pandemic begin? And more importantly—can humanity learn from it to prevent history from repeating itself?
What is Taiwan? What does Taiwan hold? The answer depends on how we understand its transformations. Giloo presents a curated selection of ten documentaries tracing Taiwan’s political evolution—offering multifaceted, in-depth perspectives on the island’s past and present. Through these films, we witness the struggles and resilience of the Taiwanese people, uncover the richness of the land, confront long-standing issues, and face the challenges that continue to shape Taiwan’s identity today.
Is justice truly equal for all before the law? Like a queen’s chastity once deemed unquestionable, what happens when rigid systems confront the complexity of human nature and circumstance? Who ultimately defines fairness and justice? A wrongful conviction that dragged on for two decades, a protest movement that pitted flesh and blood against authoritarian rule, a death row inmate executed to the cheers of the public—what role did the “law” play in each of these cases? Should we rise up to question the banality of evil, or quietly submit to it? “Judiciary Class” is a name adapted from the popular Korean series Itaewon Class, drawing on the dual meaning of “classroom” and “course.” It symbolizes a shared space for audiences to learn and grow through the films and writings featured in this program—inviting thoughtful debate, diverse perspectives, and deeper exploration of legal and ethical ideas.
This curated film list centers around the Time Travel Taiwan Series, featuring 13 Taiwanese documentary filmmakers who reinterpret officially archived footage through creative reimagining. By transforming historical images into new narratives, they breathe fresh life into decades past. Audiences are invited to step into a time tunnel — to explore Taiwan’s historical landscapes and witness the sparks ignited by cross-generational dialogue through these experimental visual works.
