1988
安妮華達拍《千面珍寶金》時 60 歲，也是來到了在一般人眼中可稱為「奶奶」的年紀，但端看在片中親自亮相的她實在不似已經 60 歲。當然，60 歲就該是什麼樣子又是另一個刻板印象。但年齡的確是這部劇情式紀錄片（docudrama film）的重點所在，儘管在片中被強調的並非華達的 60 歲，而是珍寶金於當年剛屆滿的 40 歲。
Since its founding in 1998, the Taipei Film Festival has become one of Taiwan’s most prominent film events. In addition to the Taipei Film Awards, which honor outstanding local filmmakers, the festival also features spotlight programs, curated showcases, and an international competition for emerging directors—inviting audiences to discover new voices and revisit cinematic classics from around the world. Giloo presents a special selection of award-winning and officially screened titles from past editions of the Taipei Film Festival. Whether you’re revisiting a favorite or discovering something new, we invite you to enjoy the cinematic surprises this collection has to offer.
“I live by my own standards—not by men’s.” She was a director, a cinematographer, a poet, an installation artist, a key figure of the French New Wave. She was a woman. She filmed her muses, scavengers, drifters, distant uncles, lost lovers—and herself. She wandered through the Left Bank of Paris, strolled down Rue Daguerre, flew to San Francisco and Cuba, and eventually returned to the beach she loved most. She was Agnès Varda. This August, Giloo presents 14 handpicked works by Varda—black and white, color, documentary, fiction, film stock, and DV. Two years after her farewell, we invite you to once again meet her—at her sharpest, and her kindest.
How does legendary actress Jane Birkin reveal her many faces under the lens of French New Wave icon Agnès Varda? Filmmaker Singing Chen holds intimate conversations with 30 women, listening as they share stories about their bodies—stories that are often unspeakable, unheard, or never before told. Director Huang Hui-chen turns the camera on her mother, capturing what seems to be an ordinary “conversation” between them. Another filmmaker begins with the passing of her aunt, and through interviews with her mother and grandmother, uncovers untold narratives of the women in her family. These films trace the hidden textures of female experience—tender, raw, and deeply human.
