Indie Music
Music is the voice of a generation’s thoughts. For the singers who give voice to stories, dreams and resistance are etched into every lyric. Independent bands have forged raw energy from hardship, using sharp, unrelenting melodies to challenge and disrupt the dominance of mainstream music in Taiwan. Giloo presents a selection of documentaries spotlighting the independent music scenes of Taiwan and China—tracing how underground bands rose from the margins to reach wider audiences, and how their songs gave voice to grassroots struggles, shaking the system with sound.

Those irreversible slices of life
Recently, in a novel I've come to love, I found myself grasping the weight of life's slices. In the story, there is a wicked sorcerer who freezes people in the instant just before tragedy strikes—suspending everything, sealing it into a crystal ball, and building an entire museum from these frozen moments. And isn't film, in its own way, just as cruel? As viewers, we are little more than instruments for collecting tissue slices—slipping into a character's world for a single fleeting moment, wandering through it in passing, only to return, in the blink of an eye, to the reality that is our own.
