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.

The Art of Lesbian Visibility
Taiwan has long since become the first country in Asia to legalize same-sex marriage, and LGBTQ+ lives seem to be increasingly woven into everyday life. Yet, when we turn our gaze to Asia’s mainstream media and cinema, where are the stories of lesbian women? The love left unspoken, the relationships that defy definition, and the intimacies that blur the line between friendship and romance—are they still hidden beyond the frame? And when lesbian women do appear on screen, how often are their stories truly told from their own perspectives? This time, through a collection of films, we summon those who have always been there, yet have rarely been seen. “I summon you by this name. Reveal yourself.”
