2010年,當時剛從紐約視覺藝術學院畢業的摩瑟在曼哈頓第一大道漫步,遇上了六個一同上街的兄弟。他們的外型立刻吸引了她的注意,六人都戴著黑色雷朋太陽眼鏡,長髮及肩,穿搭造型就像是從《霸道橫行》走出來的人物。摩瑟直覺他們的背後可能有一段等著她挖掘的故事。
You are not alone — ten hidden gems curated for the one with a unique taste!

In a society as warped as ours, who has the right to call themselves "normal"? Six teenage boys, locked inside their New York apartment for years, understand the world through their collection of 5,000 movies. An invisible army of overworked gig workers scrubs your social media feeds clean—out of sight, out of mind. Three adult women, posing as underage girls online, expose over 2,000 suspected child predators. In the U.S., a teen kills another—over a pair of rare, resold Air Jordans. Elsewhere, a group of people worship Satan—not to spread evil, but to resist the suffocating grip of far-right religious politics. So—are these people “normal”? Are they not? And who gets to decide what “normal” even means? Giloo presents 10 documentaries that explore the lives of those often labeled as “abnormal”—but who, in their own ways, might just be the most honest reflections of our times.
In recent years, with the buzz around artificial intelligence, many visual works have begun exploring related technologies. Before diving in, it's essential to step back and re-examine the core theme of "humanity self-creating and living within its creations." This series distances itself from typical "information technology and digital network" documentaries (if one can call them that). Instead, it re-approaches the subject from different contexts such as product manufacturing, human-machine interaction, the fusion of real and virtual, life recreation, and the essence of science. These elements are then reassembled, attempting to expand the imagination and vision surrounding these related topics.
Austrian psychologist Alfred Adler once said: “Lucky are those who heal their whole lives with childhood; the unlucky spend a lifetime healing from it.” Family isn’t always a source of happiness. For some, the deepest wounds were left at the very beginning of life—long before they had the words to name them. Giloo presents a selection of 8 films on childhood trauma, dedicated to those who may not have received the love they deserved. May these stories accompany you as you face the past, and gently begin the journey toward healing.
Movement arises from the everyday—originating from the body. The relationship between body and daily life influences our emotions, perceptions, and connections with others. Through the lens of documentaries and the eyes of an observer, we revisit the messages often overlooked in our fast-paced lives. These films explore how the body shapes our sense of being, inviting us to reflect on different ways of living. "Memory of the Body – The Rhythm of Life Film Festival", co-curated by Cloud Gate Dance School and Giloo, invites you to rediscover the rhythm between body and life. Awaken your senses and reconnect with the essence of living.
The family is the most common and smallest unit of coexistence in modern society. Families across different eras and spaces each face their unique blend of joys and sorrows. When encountering difficulties, it's natural to feel that one's own problem is the hardest to solve, but it's also important to realize that no one's is easy. From the following selection of films, find resonance in the others' family stories, and see the unique essence of home.
Family isn’t always unconditional love. Sometimes, it’s the very beginning of a lifelong entanglement—or even hatred. A cult leader yearning for motherhood. A New York boy locked away by a controlling father. A mother who never grew up, and a child abandoned by the world... There’s no fixed definition of an “ideal family,” but broken families come in countless forms. Giloo presents 5 films about fractured households—and asks: If there’s a monster in your home that you can’t escape, can you still call it a safe haven?
Avoidance may not solve the problem—but not every problem needs solving. Sometimes, it simply gives you room to breathe, to think things through, or to take a break and watch a film on Giloo. This playlist is for you— who once avoided, are avoiding, or wish you could.
